Looks a bit familiar :|

Am a bit annoyed that they offer black orion wheels as an option on the new FR [:@]

Although they don't look quite as good with those tiny brakes :D

The bottom of the front bumper is too high from the ground. Its needs to be lower and more aggressive.

Apart from that I think the face lift is good. I really like the rear end now. Much better looking with the full width glass.

Is white cotton cheaper?
They want you to pay to replace the seat when you crash and it gets covered in blood?
So it doesn't match the colours on the steering wheel / dash?
Because white is the best colour in the world?
They're saving the red for the Cupra R ?

Spotted a 09 FR in Kiwi today at Snet, looked amazing just in need of a black cuprammonium grill & mirrors with alloys to match. It was that nice the other half is considering one over a R20T Scirioco! :)

Massive difference between a r20t and a fr :shrug:

Shes gonna have a quicker car than you if she gets the r20t, are you k with that lol :p

I've now had my FR TDI a few days now and thought I would post a couple of pics apologies about the quality but I only had my iPhone with me.

Also it's not a clean as I would like as I haven't had a chance to detail it yet.

It's Luna Grey which should be a nice change from all the white ones :whistle:





First impressions are very good and it's a different beast to my previous Civic Type R GT

Very nice and a nice colour too. My MK1 Leon FR was that colour and it was different from the normal silvers. Nice bluey tint to it.

Those wheels set it apart too. Seen a white one with those wheels and they made the car look chunky and wide. [B)][B)]

Any rear end shots??

Looks nice in Luna, definitely one of the colours I am considering (along with Yellow and Red).

Good to see it with the 18 inch wheels too. They look much better now I can see them on the car itself.

Any chance of you posting some more pictures from different angles so we can see the front and rear?

Cheers,

Tony.
