Went to see my candy white fr today

[simmytt]

Couldent resist a little peak as i cant collect it untill thursday as they have to put on b+c pillar covers and black mirror caps, i must say candy white looks so much better in real life photos dont do it much justice, roll on thursday

Looks really good in Candy. Not normally a huge fan of white cars but it seems to suit the Leon. Did they give you a price for the C pillars fitted? B's were straightforward to change but think will get dealer to do the others...

 

[jenk]

White is definatly the new black!

 

[simmytt]

Love it in white, will be a sod to keep clean, but will be well worth the effort

 

[Rob66]

Looks great, even better when you get the Cupra mirrors and B & C Pillars.

 

[STOCKY]

I did the same... how hard is it knowing that the car is there but you cant have it!

Nice list of part numbers...saved for the future! Cheers

Looks awesome in white, was tempted myself. Just not a pratical colour for me, too much mud - hehehe

Looks good in Candy White I saw one for the first time when I picked up my (luna grey) FR.

 

[k4ith]

looks good !, you reckon door off for the rear pillars not to keen on that, and i have the fronts on back order.

 

[jedi knight]

Looks good in white, are those headlamp washer jets on the front of the bumper?

 

[Michael B]

I think they are foam bump strips, to protect the car in transit a bit

Yeah there are, but to the left of the one of the foam bits is a piece of oval plastic that resembles washer jets.

Yep, my guess is he went for the xenon lights

Not really enough protection though is it? Mine came scratched just on the edge of the wheel arch.. And they didn't even hide it with the correct colour paint. If they can't make-new, I'm demanding a new bumper..

Looks damn good in White!!

Not long now, i have given myself friday off to collect car, i have just been and got some cvaliper paint (black) and i have some white seat caliper decals, so first job is alloys off and paint the calipers, while alloys are off give them a good waxing.My new front speakers arrived today (pioneer ts-1756) and autoleads speaker adaptors (sak-3103) so while paint is drying i will change front speakers, i have asked dealers to leave the alloy rings off the front speakers so i hope they remember, i will take some step by step pics of speaker change as it may be of use to someone.The only thing i am waiting for is the black door cill set from the seat factory, i have had e-mail to say they have been dispached so i hope they will be here by friday. I also hope my painter has sprayed my mirror caps ,i am popping around his house later tonight so fingers crossed.I dont think i will be doing much driving friday but hey its bank holiday so i have plenty of time.
Tam, yes i went for the xenons couldent resist.
K4ith, just to clarify, internal door panel off, not door itself.
