Quick question for you guys.

Thinking of doing my alloys on my Speed Blue Leon, can't decide if Matte black or Glossy Black would look better.

What do you think?

P.S I'm planning to do grille surround in matte black, and possibly the S badge and Leon badge on the back.

Well, I could do the other bits in gloss black, just can't decide what would look better overall.

Does black look good with the speed blue?

It looks good and i think some guys have already done it. I think anthracite would look better on blue as black is everywhere on other coloured cars lol

I had a great day my aircon has packed up won't recharge .
It's like being in a Mirco wave in this heat. Any time soon I'm going to explode...

And heat means turbo is down on power ..

But on the + side I still drive a Cupra mk2 ;-)

Bet your disappointed mate.
People go on about the studs snapping although I've only ever changed 4 of them with the oldest being 4 years old with 50k on I've never had any problems at all.
Maybe they just couldn't be arsed?

Decided to try out what a smaller plate would look like on the front of my car. I broke my rear plate recently so decided to chop it down to see what it would look like before attempting it on my actual front plate.

What do you guys think? Smaller is better??

Fitted my Parrot kit...which isn't working as yet... gave her a good clean and put a new tax disc holder in. Oh and got plenty of sunburn to boot!
