Post Pic's of Your Mk3 Leon In Here

Me again just picked her up and got a few more shots of the splitter.

Really works well with the skirts and not dangerously low enough to catch kerbs and speed bumps.

Defo the route I’d of gone on a 300 if I hadn’t of bagged the carbon. Looks epic in white too!!

I would have loved a bumper similar to the R. I prefer the more aggressive bumper without the LED fog lights.

And I still prefer the carbon's splitter to the front lip I've got but there was absolutely no chance of that.

So the look I ended going for was based on this. Looks awesome in grey.

I agree about fog lights, they are one of the most useless accessory on any car. They can hardly ever be used legally, and most drivers don't even know what the law about their use is.

Yeah I’ve gone and made my quite rare in the UK Carbon (1 of 42) look quite common now the R ST is coming (150) lol

But no fogs looks good. I do mean to look at getting some blacked out fog lights to fit the R grills at some point.

Now the front end on that looks perfect.
No fogs and consistent honeycomb.

Expensive?

No. The grills are less than £140 fully painted with the copper bits. I paid £170 in total as had the copper painted gloss black and then had them wrapped in Matt silver...

But the silver got a mother of all stone chips so ripped it off.

Going to buy some Matt dark silver and re wrap them at some point.

Impossible to get? Ask @indyjones LOL

I wonder whether with 150 cupra r st on the way how hard it will be to get hold of the parts

What’s next for you [user]@Damoh [/user] the carbon st spoiler? surely with the carbon pack that was released in the netherlands it must be easy to get hold of?

I was hoping so, but I need a VIN no of an ST variant and not seen anyone on here with one. Plus it’s RRP will be like £1,000. I may get the JE design spoiler extension.

Plus now the R ST actually exists, which I never expected to happen, I don’t want to try and copy it.

When I read the original concept info for it, it wasn’t going to get the trick suspension (camber) of the hatch R. Hence planned the Camber plates I’ve got so I could get it anyway. However the R ST coming out ended up being fortuitous as gave me direction for the rear setup on the alignment.

So my car is near enough running the same setup as the R ST. It’s currently running -2.5 degrees camber (R is 2.0) at the front and -2.0 at the rear (Same as R). Toe same as the R ST. Really does feel a lot more responsive. Helped obviously by the other bits like the strut brace and decent tyres and the 10mm spacers at the front. Just need my 5mm rear spacers.

Again the R ST has 10mm wider front and rear track as the wheels have a 5mm bigger offset (RT45). The hatch R has 20mm wider track from and rear due to the wheels (ET40).

Mods so far - dechrome front grill and badge in gloss black. Rear badge de-chrome and rebadge. Wind deflectors fitted. Alloys powder coated in graphite grey.

Damo, I know you'll never give up where/how you got the R fog intake grills, is there any way of prying it out of you... beer tokens maybe?

A seat dealer like any other part Honestly.

I’ve only seen one other car with them though, and they’re from Spain. They’ve managed to get the R wheels too. Not sure if they’re ST R wheels (ET45) or 5 door R wheels (ET40). Could even be Carbon wheels painted (ET50)

 

[SwissCupra]

Are they not specific to the Rs then like the carbon fibre stuff? And need an R chassis number to order? Defo prefer them to the normal ST ones
Wheels I'm not overly fussed on, I have to buy a second set for winter here, so I'll keep my originals as them and buy some 8.5jx19 et42s or close to for summer

Yes they are and yes you do. Add pictures of the broken parts they need to replace now as well.

When I heard the 2019 Cupra was going have copper that was what I was expecting (with the exception of the fins)

Would have preferred that look too

Picked her up after being in the garage having some work done.

So nice to have her back again.
