Yea mate.. simple slide on job.. once you get them u'll see. all u gotta do is take the headrest out and slide them onto the bars. something like £5 too.. so cheap mod.. Makes the interior look a little more sporty too!

Got the rear light cluster fitted yesterday.. Makes the rear look far better IMO.

Also got chrome exhaust trims:
I want these to be a temporary fix until I can save up for a proper exhaust!

I was washing the car yesterday, when I was giving the tyres a foam dressing, I saw the opportunity and wanted to know ur opinions guys...
White cupra's...? lol

I Dunno, You Would Have To Get A Proper Photoshop Of Them In White First, And Lower It More
Yea, I know mate.
Think I'll go take a picture too post up for someone to photoshop for me..
Ok so here they are...
I'll post them up in the photoshop section too in case noone sees them here! lol

Looking very good to me mate!
I like the rear light mod... would do it myself but I don't know whether to go all red or have 2 matching ones with the clear reverse bit. My car is light blue not red which makes the decision harder I think...
Your HIDs look nice and white too, nothing worse than ending up facing some muppet with really blue HIDs, just looks cheap.
I think some nice H&R lowering springs would set yours off beautifully.

Cheers mate. Dunno if you'd be leagally allowed to do it that way though.. unless u cud get a red bulb as its illegal to not have a red fog light on the drivers side in the uk - it isn't a legal requirement to have a reversing light, as far as I know of anyway. (this makes mine red! lol)
Yea, they are exactly how I wanted them to be, really hate the very blue chavvy HIDs about.. seem to be more every week around here. These have a very OEM look about them, and that will prob help not being pulled by the rozzers! lol
that looks gorgeous with just subtle MOD's
in my opinion just needs a nice drop and your sorted

I want to get a few other things done before I lower it tho mate. I live in the countryside, and the car is used as a daily commute car so I don't want a really hard ride either! Lol
I live out in the countryside too mate, ive just lowered mine on coilovers.
Bit harsh but i can live with it

That looks unreal Maverick! Those Cupra alloys really make a difference, and I love the HID's, makes it look real classy.
The matching rear light is a nice wee mod too, makes the rear look more symmetrical.
A bit of a drop and it would be complete

I think legally you can get away with just shoving a red bulb in, MOT testers only check the function of the rear fog, not it's brightness
So here's my problem! I still have a choice 
*touch wood* I'm trying to get over the fact I've never been pulled by the plod, not even for a general check or anything. I thought 18 year old driver (now 19), fresh license, in a supermini... that's me pulled, but no, nothing yet!
Also been meaning to look into an exhaust tip for mine for a while, yours looks very well tbh. I'd be happy with that!

I'd say a red bulb would be grand.. if it shows up red then ur sorted.. the two clear lights would look good too, I just rathered all of them red. at least you can compare mine to what it could be..
I've never been stopped either, only when there's been a checkpoint, and it was a simple "show me ur license" job.. lol I suppose over here, the cops have more to be worried about!
I'm happy with the exhaust tip, but ther is one thing that annoys me about it.. u can see the fixings that hold it in from directly behind.. I'll throw a pic up of it now in 2 secs.
I was thinking about spraying these black to try to blend them in maybe..?
Don't mind the dirt! haha, don't want to clean it until I get off for the summer and give it a proper clean!
