I think the spoiler looks not too bad... will be a change from the usual smoothing and all that euro stuff. :)

Liking the gear knob too! ;)

Got the induction kit fitted :) oo nice noise

Not drove it yet, so dunno if it will make a difference to the drive.
When you 1.2 boys fitted yours, does it shake a little? My engine shakes a bit, dad says a little too much... any idea why?
Also the induction kit shakes a bit, because of the rubber bit holding it on with the clamp

Pub!!
might be worth making up some sort of clamp to hold it in place to stop the induction kit rocking around.

if your engine is shacking to much...maybe your engine mounts?? but at the end of the day, im a mortgage underwriter not a mechanic so may not be correct!! :whistle:

But if i take it back to Seat they might not fix the engine mounts, my warrenty is stuffed now anyway lol

Might take it just to a local garage or something and ask their opinion on the rocking of engine and the induction kit

Will get video of the noise and rocking up soon as :)

Got a red one on mirror in bedroom and got a frosted one on back of the car to match the SCN sticker :D looks sweet

Next up is my mate gave me some primed eyebrows for the car which he found in a garage he was clearing out, should i fit them?
Would look like these but red obviously...

They actually look better than i imagined they would

Was keen on the colour coded red innered lights too, but might wait till i get HID's

You dont colour code the insides mate, you can get them that way to start with ;)

I have a spare set knocking around in the garage I believe, they retail at about half the price of the upgraded twin lights on the higher spec models.

Yeah i knew they came from the dealers, i have the twin lights on mine as its an 07.

Just looking into doing HIDs one day and would be eaiser to fit HIDs and new headlights at the same time.
How much you looking for the lights? Any damage or scratches to them etc?

They were on my car for awhile, so the usual bits of stonechips that headlights get, nothing major, no crackes or anything, I have two sets after a 'claim' they are pretty cheap like £140ish from memory from new.

I got a price from pete88 a while ago saying £160 for the two, so how much would you be after?
My headlights are newly on as my old ones kept steaming up so Seat replaced them, no stone chips on them or that so any idea if it would be possible to change the glass over?

Or is it not worth it as are there hardly any marks?

How the hell'd you get stone chips on your head lights? I've never noticed any on mine, the paintwork chips but the headlights are spot on....
