ah that sits a bit better now, soon as you do the coding, it'll look even more mint. get the front bumper smoooothed
could also get the bottom of front and back bumper colour coded to make it look lower as well

 

[KFC91]

well im going away for the weekend next weekend so i think im gonna wait till next month to do anything else...want to spend some money on myself for once ...but i can say, next will be tints

Cupra front bumper?

Yep go for it, just make sure you shop around though, my mate was quoted £190 for all round (lighter on fronts) and a sun strip. My dad put him onto a guy who did it for around £130

yeah actually my brother is insisting I get facelift front and back bumpers so thats one for the list lol

I have probably miss it in the quick read through, why did you not lower the front drivers side to start with and what technique did you use to lower it?


Thanks

Well...my brother did it because im just a clueless girl so i dont really know why he started with the back...but it took like half an hour each side, was really easy...front had some problems with..took a couple days - needed a couple new bits for my shocks...something had broken in my passenger side which had caused the old spring to brake twice :\ didnt pay much attention to the technique which was used..so id say unless you really know what your doing go to a garage!

 

[ScottHmk4]

haha thanks give you a good idea of how it potentially can look, bumper upgrades are a MUST!!!!

 

[KFC91]

yup i will be on the hunt for some...when i get paid for all the overtime ive done

 

[Altech]

Looks smart with those alloys on it New bumpers will make a massive difference

 

[BigWill]

I don't know why but your car actually suits the black side strips

Looking nice as always, debadging it is real easy, only did mine a couple of weeks ago.
Also to keep your wheels like that for longer, have a look at some wheel wax, makes them soo much easier to clean
