My 1P Leon Cupra's Journey from stock - stage 2 - TTE 420 (Picture heavy)

[Ash5314]

I'm off to the ring in July Really looking forward to it. Afterwards I'll be saving for some better suspension as only running b12s at the moment.

I can recommend Cadwell as a track, best track ever.

Love what you've done with the car. Ooo and the TTS engine cover. Was it a straight fit or did you have to modify it to fit?

Thanks mate ,

It's pretty straight forward tbh the only thing you will need is this kit plus the engine cover obviously.

That is a thing of beauty and a modification marvel. I find myself asking... do the kids really need shoes??

Hahaha thanks mate, the family should probably come first but surely they would understand if you chose the car?

As the Leon is nearly
"finished" it deserves abit of a tidy up as it's picked up a few marks here and there from being man handled so much last year.

And here's a couple of pictures of my boot build in the dark.

I will be protecting it with a ceramic coating not sure which one yet though,

This is the process Iv done so far,

2 stages with the Rupes machine using Scholl S3 and Microfibre megs pad to remove some deep marks left from the first time I detailed it

1 stage with the Rupes machine using Scholl S20 black and a hexlogic yellow pad to remove any hazing

And a finial stage to enhance the gloss I used Carpro essence on a carpro soft pad using a Flex rotary machine.

Thanks bud buy some 5 inch Meguiars microfibre pads for your Rupes that will really help you out with the heavy cutting
