when i had this car i bought all bumpers and side skirts new from the dealers. its expensive but i got fed up looking on ebay, thats your 2 options really. dealers or ebay. cupra rims come up rarely too. i had 17" leon FR+ alloys, look the same as ibiza cupra rims but there not.

B pillars off they are held in by clips at the top think it the same at the bottom, the seat belt bit is the PITA, I un bolted the bar bit the belt is held onto at the bottom (remembering which way the belt went on) slipped the seat belt off and them you can remove the rest of the plastic panel. I have a pic of this bit on my RR don't wanna post here and ruin this thread.

er no no seat belt outside my car lol soz amused you meant inside! Outside ones you muller the screws have to get new ones unless you are lucky (bit like the door card and trim panel clips really they are expected to break really) when my rear window was broken one of the screw was ruined when they took it out but I not bothered to replace it but annoyed me.

I might have just seen your old car Scott! Travelling in the middle lane of the A34 towards Handforth Dean.

Was red with VXR decal, anthracite wheels, rear tints and Cupra spoiler! Was a couple of stickers on the back too. Sadly I couldn't catch the reg as I only saw it from side on! :(

I'll put a post up in the spotted section, see if we get any replies.

Sounds like it mate, glad it's still alive, yeah I had a few stickers on the bootlid windows etc. Was it looking clean? Lol. Hope it's getting taken care of :)

As I said I only saw it briefly mate, cars travel past my house at 40-45mph, so I didn't have much time to see it. But it seemed well, was still nice and shiny.

Just wish I'd caught the reg. :cry:

for those who wanted the template of the sticker i had on the back of the car, take this to any sign shop and they can make you it into stickers like i done.

95% certain I saw your old car again today Scott.

It was the same place as last time. This time I was driving on the other side of the road though! :doh:

I noticed the LED sidelights, also noticed the custom chequered pattern you put on it on the lower rear quarter!

Happened all too quickly for me to see the condition of it... if we're lucky though one of these days I could end up following it, if I do I'll do my best to take a picture!
