My first Seat - Leon 1.8t Sport pics

[jamiebennett81]

lol yeah mate throttle response is abit better and the sound is just orgasmic But I've noticed fuel economy has reduced. Worth it though

Anddd I spoke too soon... the light came on tonight lol

I had taken it to P Torque to get remapped but the helpful guys there found out that the wheels need tracking as when the car was on the dyno, the car would move sideways lol

So gonna get that sorted and booked in again sometime soon.



lol Managed to get some decent wheel cleaner wax from Halfords mate, worked a treat. They are in safe hands but I feel new tyres will be due around Easter time The Toyos do grip like a dream

hopefully you will never buy budget tyres again.....you can feel the difference instantly

glad you are happy with them mate

Oh yes lol tell me about it. The budgets were like plastic. Truely dangerous. I'm so much more confident and feel secure with these tyres.

Handling and ride comfort has improved alot more than I expected considering I've only dropped down from 19s to 18s too.

Fitted new Aero wiper blades (front and back) from ebay today










Nice subtle upgrade I think, much better wiping and all for under £15

Comments welcome

 

[MIkey kc]

car looks very nice mate!

like everyone has said tho, change those rear lights asap.

Get it lowered aswel!

The wipers on the front are too bulky now imho, you know they are there every time they wipe
Back is weird as only seen fabia upgrades or an Audi one.

They are excellent at wiping so I'm content with them

Of course mate, your car your choices

Leon prefacelift Cupra all shiney

Well it's been a while since I posted some pics of the Leon so after a 5 hour long wax and hoover I've taken some pics on this gorgeous day

Here's how she started off,






And how she stands now,











Finally got rid of the Lexarse lights, in exchange for some stock ones which I tinted myself Decided to downsize from the 19 inch RS4s as they ride was so harsh and tbh a couple were in bad shape.

Mods so far:

Turbosmart DualPort Kompact DV
Front upper strut brace
Black angel eye headlights with 6000k HID kit
Cold air intake with open cone behind bumper
Colour coded bump strips and door handles
Oil temp and boost gauge running 0.6 bar (0.7 bar in fifth and sixth) in dual pod
3" downpipe and decat
Midbox back exhaust with Magnex tri-oval backbox
40mm springs and shocks kit
Spoiler
LCR front splitter
Aeroblade wipers
18" SSW Mesh 2 alloy wheels with Nankang NS2s up front and Goodyear Eagle F1 on back
Smoked Leon tail lights
smoked side repeaters
Alpine IDA-X001 headunit
Pioneer 1000w rms subwoofer ported
Fusion 1000w monoblock amp

Mods planned for this summer:

All round smoked tints
FMIC
TIP
dial surrounds
Bumper of some sort (mine could do with replacing due to condition)
Stage 2 remap

And I think that'll be it mod wise Due for a cambelt and could do with the windscreen replacing due to chips.

Thanks for looking and any comments/advice appreciated
Cheers
Dan

Liking what you've done mate

What a bargain as well! It is a proper SEAT colour, just a rare-as-rocking-horse-poo one - only seen one other Cupra in that shade and that was about 3 years ago on Auto Trader!

Maybe it was this one you saw on Autotrader

Thanks mate

I think I'm gonna remove the spoiler and Cupra decal though to give it a more OEM look, then fit OEM Cupra skirts and back bumper.

Good idea?
