It’s gonna look the dogs b#*##s with the new exhaust. From previous experience in installing the Rieger rear diff it can be a tad bit fiddly. Can’t wait to see the pics of it on the car.

Ya, but our weather is SH#T right now with 20-30cm snow and mushy mushy :p

If I can borrow a mates garage I’ll mount it, otherwise I’m taking it to the wrap shop like it is and mount it march-april instead...

Don’t blame you, keep it nice clean and shiny for when the weather gets better. If it’s any consolation we have no snow at all here where I live so my Nevada white St is easy to keep clean at the moment..

what tyres do you have?

Nokian WR D4 (235/35-R19), wonderful for the winter (stud free). I went to Åre in northern Sweden and back (410 miles there and 410 miles home) and I had so much fun with the 4WD and no problems at all with grip etc. on both small roads and the highway.

About 8 days until car goes in for wrapping.

Still waiting for my fiberglass front spoiler.

Bear with the updates

@Smyg The car does suit the white cover you have :lol:.

The exhaust sounds fantastic! If possible when the weather permits, you should do a drive by shot to hear the full exhaust.

BUMMER.

Just got hit by the largest stone ever. It bounced making 2 cracks.

My right ear is the worst though, feels like it broke my ear drum from the BANG :(

Really hope your ok, that can be a very frightening experience.

Well done not swerving into danger!

Looks like this after they ”fixed it”. They put on some paste/sealant but the starcracks won’t disappear they said.

No point doing that yet since our harsh winter probably will get you more of these...

And also it's gonna be 150-300£ to change it.

And I am guessing you will also have to pay for the Re-Alignment of all the window sensors.

Did they come painted?

Nope. Seat will send them to a external paintshop so you might as well do it yourself :) I will wrap mine so I don’t need to paint it.
