Insurance renewal, so added JB4 and Cupra R grills . Will be fitting these as soon as the new policy starts. I will most likely need assistance with the JB4 once fitted as I've never used one before.

Removed the rear seats as I need all the space available for next week. Surprisingly easy compared to most, especially most BMW where you can't even fold the seats down :confused:

Fitted the Cupra R inserts and shredded my hands in the process. Not the best job for one person probably could have used a 2nd set of hands.
Excuse the rust on the discs and the wheel condition, the car hasn't been used for 4 months due to being out of the country.

They make a massive difference don’t they. I’ve got a pre facelift car but can’t find anything similar or that looks oem

Yeah, they should have had something similar as standard that's for sure. I'm not sure why I had to buy skirts and bumper inserts to make it look how it should from the factory. It's starting to look a bit like a hot hatch now.

Been drawing up some badges (to be 3D printed) lately since they decided to drop the badges on the MY20's. Cheeky "380" lettering so the KIAs and GTIs stop trying to race me, doubt it'll stop them though.

They do look good, but take a look at AT designs the new site sponsor, he’s making these in all different colour and number options :)

They do look good, but the number is a bit small to read to stop those Kias ;)

Maybe something slightly larger...

Went to look at a Cupra today as it was right next to were I was, it was a CAT S so it was always going to be a gamble if it'd been repaired correctly or not. Turned out it hadn't.
I feel bad for whoever falls for it, shouldn't be on the road after seeing the state of the suspension.
Had a cheeky look at a Focus ST-3, yea it's nice and has a lot of tech but my heart is set on a Cupra.

Out of curiosity, was it an Alor Blue one?

Not quite today, but I finally go round to replacing the rear bumper trim with a body colour painted one.
(The pic does make it look like I’ve painted the car too - before pic was done with beaming sun, and the after pic was done after a downpour with dark clouds above)

Yeah, that looks 10x better. I can't for the life of me figure what designer said to the team "You know what looks sporty? ... Grey plastic".
