White FR to Black Cupra - Cupra Now Sold :(

[Scott-o]

It was on briskoda. Just google n112 n249 and sai removal an itl come up I think

Reckon I'll try just stick the plate ontop like damo did. The bolts are underneath upside down though, they hard to get to?

 

[Hartosh1]

Nah mate easy enough better than all the hassle i just went through anyways

Good guide that mate im looking just now

 

[Scott-o]

Yeh great guide, bit different to ours but basics are the same I guess!

Ordered a lhd rear light today get rid of the rubbish clear lens on the back

 

[Hartosh1]

Nice one so they will all be red? Not a bad idea but not on my to-do list

Im just waiting on my wheels before i go any further with swapping the turbos over i cant believe its been almost 4 weeks since i ordered

So you not gonna use that Forge blanking plate then as i dunno if it fits the top part

 

[Scott-o]

Hmm does it not? I just cba pissing coolant everywhere and don't want any air in the system. I'll just have to see if John can map it out first.

Yeh all red. Just not gonna have a reverse light lol

 

[Hartosh1]

Im not 100% Scott!

Hmmm air in the system doesnt sound good lol as i had quite alot of coolant come out the block but my mate reckons it will be fine

The Forge blank plate definitely won't fit the top of the pipe, the holes are further apart.. I found that out after much confusion lol. I had previously made my own blank for the top of the pipe, so thought the Forge one would fit straight on, which it didn't

Did you order you're light from a dealers? I asked Mike if he'd sell me his LHD one separate from his car, but he's keen to sell as a whole which is fair enough. Don't ask don't get! I'm tempted to get a set of the all red Sportrider lights, I think they'd look pretty good on a black car. Ash's looked nice with them... I'd have to get a separate LHD one of those too.

 

[Scott-o]

Goddamn haha should just not been lazy now and made my own

Yeh got it off David at SERE. Best bet for anythin like that, the most helpful bloke! I've got the opposite one to mike though. I didnt want any white lenses at all.

I had sportsrider lights on my fr, half wish I'd kept them now like haha

 

[R1ch85]

I'd prefer white with the cupra lights, or all red with sportriders... best get saving I guess!

 

[Scott-o]

I just like to keep things more uniform

Got new centre caps back from my dad painting them, done a good job gonna leave them a few days to harden though before fitting

 

[Scott-o]

Gloss black center caps, my dads done a class job again. Said they were horrid to paint like haha

 

[pjdj]

No messing about!

 

[Scott-o]

haha thats me, gone from 100% standard to what it is now in 6-7 months

 

[Alex 17]

Eeesh have i only had my car 7 months? haha Centers look good your dad has the perfect job for little bits and bobs ey!

 

[Scott-o]

7 months and a couple of weeks and you have only managed to cover the fooker in fake carbon vinyl and fook up one of the wheels only messing

I'll give him the car to do one day, see what he says then

 

[Hartosh1]

Think ill need to paint my caps black as they will most likely be chrome

Ohhhh not gonna be able to sleep tonight knowing these wheels will be here tomorrow gonna get 3 layers of wheel guard on them oh i hope im not disappointed

 

[Scott-o]

Haha I'm expecting pictures tomorrow

 

[Hartosh1]
