You still for getting a Cupra front bumper mate? I just got a facelift bumper there, so I'd buy your fogs if you'd sell them. Or could swap with my fogs that would fit the Cupra bumper. ;)

I'd like to, but I doubt I'll be getting it unless I sell my facelift bumper dude, with fogs if it's possible (get more for it that way).

I'd have to get close to what the Cupra would cost to even bother thinkin about it, unless I got a cheap Cupra one 2nd hand or somethin...

Ah right, no worries lad. Cupra ones seem very hard to find 2nd hand. :/
Cupra one would have been easier for me, save me having to buy facelift fogs, but the facelift one came up local, right colour and cheap so I went for it.

Hi, I had it on the inside of my steering wheel, but it was awkward there do I put it on my hand brake lever. Fits fine and is easily accessed, I'll try and see if I can get a pic up later for u.

After seeing it done to a few cars on here, and thinking that it really makes the front look a lot better, I decided to invest in a roll of matt black vinyl.

The front lip and the recess behind the number plate was the area I wanted to target, and with help from my dad we got it sorted in not too long.

Before:

After:

It came out really well I think, and it def transforms the front of the car.

As far as how difficult it was, we did spend most of the time measuring and cutting the vinyl so it would be easier to stick down once we came to it, and I would definately advise others that want to do this mod along those lines.. makes the process a lot easier.

How did you go about removing the lower grill? Wouldn't mind getting mine out to wrap the bottom lip properly...
