Black LC, 1.9 TDI Tints done

[oz_borne]

Here we go then.....my first real progress thread per se.

The wife and I just got married, and plan to have Dogs and Sprogs. So have put the 206 HDI up for sale....See here. So whilst we sell that, we dreamed of a new car. And then bought it!

A few mishaps like, a blown turbo hose whilst test driving it, no MOT much to the owners confusion, and a problem with delivery/pick up time posibilities and the car was ours. Dirty, but ours.

So.......

Seat Leon, CUPRA, 1.9TDI, 04 plate, 77,000 with Full service history.

And she is a complete beast. Eats up the road, rips of your face and just spits it all out of the twin pipe rear end.

6 hours *****ing the beast on Saturday and this was the outcome.

Washed and dried
Wheel arches cleaned
De tarred
Claybarred
Wheel wash
Washed again
T-cut a few places to colour the stonechips
Polished Whole car
Metal polished
Rim sealant
Tyres high gloss shine
Nano Waxed
Full interior valet
Bouquet Magic Tree added

BOSH!!!!!

Plans are likely to be;
*tints,
*wheels
*possibly lowering.

No remap, not worth it with miles and speeds we do. The age old economy versus Performance malarky. Will also be in contact (again) with James about some detailing of the paintwork.

Thoughts and comments welcomed!

Good times.

Nice looking car mate.
I like the wheels, but not sure about black on black.... but the pic with them on is changing my mind.

 

[oz_borne]

So i kinda waited for about a week and then let the modding commence!

This is how i'd like the car to look by the end of it all.

So.....we did the whoel tinting thing!

Guy from Top Tints, Chris came this saturday at 12. Spent 2 hours lovingly removing the windows (that move) and applying 50% to the front and 35 to the rear. Got no reciept of anything but for £180 it's fantastic! (must get a reciept!!!!)

He cleaned all the windows and put the film on outside first....to cut....and then stuck it inside and blow dried with a heat gun. Was fun to watch.

SAD!!!!!!!!!!!

but loving the look now.

So we're on the road to better things!

Next on the list is a new cambelt
