What wax Chris?

Try using a good paint cleanser..really brings out the metallic in our type of colour and gives the wax effect that little boost!

 

[ChrisGTL]

It was Autoglym polish and then super resin finished with max wax. Nowt special, but looks ok.

They certainly finish the rear end off. As for handling.....yeh, i'd say the back feels slightly more stable now under cornering/braking.

Cheers Mike.

The 6k's work bloody brill! Not one person has not mentioned them if they have been in the car at night. Even women like them

Would really like some black angel eyes, but I don't know if I can be arsed with all the extra bulbs needed and possibly needing to mod the angel eyes to fit the HID's.

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Bargain at £40 too!!

My ring lights are pretty cool

Trying to stay away from modding the Leon. Saving for a house AND the Leon will be the deposit on the Bocanegra next year lol

Keep up the good work chap!
