If im honest mate im not great with painting.. And really dont fancy spending the cash getting someone to paint it.. Next up is probably spoiler painted black and a custom exhaust!

Just read whole thread seems your near enough the same level of mods as me. You got a pic of custom dead pedal? You will have to get a new clutch and flywheel before stage 2 thou part of reason I am not doing it now as it cost about a grand! You should get tints done finish the exterior mods off nicely.

Chears aimez , Yeah think im on about the same level as mods as you.. Yeah really dont fancy a new clutch and flywheel but i've heard if you limit it too 200 bhp and 300 torque its '' Ok '' on standard parts.

As for the tints im not sure it will suit the car's colour .. Hit and miss really , some say it will look good others think it will look naff!

Only plans for exterior now are cupra spolier in black and a black roof

And a cupra exhaust tip / full miltek system..

Just waiting for my spacers too show up! Hurry up delivery man!

tints +1 for me, they will suit it mate.....dark on the rear like 20% and 35/30% on fronts.

mines now are 20% and 35% front, nice fade and a sunstrip.....35% is over legal max but ive been ok for like a year and a half and been stopped like 3 times, nothing said

I take you are one of the people bidding on that one on ebay then a few on here have mentioned it! Hope you weren't the numpty who started bidding today why start today leave it last minute so it's cheaper:confused:

Who cares what others think about tints do what you want mine are dark smoke (not in old pic in my sig) none on front as not worth attracting unwanted attention IMO but each to their own.

Yeh I have Milltek cat back so far as I said, 20mm spacer are a must yes. My clutch I think is slipping already at stage one people say you can have the standard clutch but drive it like a granny so what's the point.

I know I have heard two people on here mention the spoiler on there since Chino posted me the link, numpties never bid until the end! Think they are £80 so still £20 cheaper but who know by tomorrow lunch-time when it ends!
I am not sure it may be turbo lag as I am not sued to the map yet, doesn't happen often http://www.artofspeed.net/ custom map even at stage one and he does not charge for stage two map either. He has mk4 sport.

I'm watching it, was going to bid right before it ends but won't be bothering now. I'll wait for another one day...

On the subject of tints, go for it lad! I'd personally go for 80% dark/20% light transmission whichever way you look at it...

It's now at £73 inc P+P... no thankyou.

I'm also watching SEAT sport side skirts which are going equally daft and they've still got over 2 days to go. More retards... :lol:

Haha some people are just silly with money! Im sure they will be off here and think its a ''bargin''
Ah i see .. When i go for my tubo back decat im told i may lose presure aka lose power so a custom map would be better suited to make use of the more free flowing exhaust and gain power.. So looking at going custom at a place near me called vastech
