Not many LCR's round by where I live, there are 2 I see regularly (black & red).

The quality is good a lot of people use them across loads of forums. When I was picking mine up from them he picked up one of the wheels to show me the finish but it slipped out of one of his hands and hit one of my other rims that was on the floor ouch! but neither of them had a mark on afterwards - the coating is very tough. And if you do kerb a wheel it ain't gonna break the bank to get it re done @£20.

I paid £70 a rim for Aerocoat to do mine, expensive but worth the extra IMO. Although I think City Powder Coaters do black chrome now, they didn't when I went there a few years back.

yeh I bet you was bit shocked when the alloy dropped :banned::(but I guess its one of them like, if I seen you in my car ill beep yah lol.the queens way is opened back up again so nice blast through there then up he hagley mile :whistle: haha,what power you running?ive heard there a good bit of power difference from the 180 to 225 for obvious reasons but just the how much more quicker is it?............had I bit more moneys id grab the LCR but I got my 180 for a good price pretty cheap imo,and it clean all in and out, seen a few LCR for a good price in stock form also [B)] need to get me a cobra exhaust and mapped up wolves, rear strut brace also:).

Last time it was on the rollers was at Badger5 it made 280bhp (linear revo stage2), it's a quick car and imo 280bhp is plenty of power. I've not driven a 180 leon cupra so can't really comment or compare on that. The turbo back non res cobra exhaust does sound good, i'm running a 3" pipewerx dp & decat, milltek non res centre section and a custom back box it sounds nuts on full chat. When you get it mapped it will feel like a different car well worth the money.

Finished my boost gauge holder.

Would look better in satin but only had gloss it'll do for now.



What you think?

Did the SMIC arch vent mod as well as opening up the front vent more. Wasn't expecting much difference at all but am finding it a bit smoother across the range now.
