Was this done at a SEAT dealer ? I had the same for my front shock at last year's MoT/service at SEAT. Left it and no mention in this year's MoT (done elsewhere - passed with no advisories) and service (at same SEAT dealer). However SEAT now say rear shock leaking excessively - immediate replacement required £200. Given this was 5 days and 20 miles after the MoT was done (and the leak in the front shock from previous year has mysteriously gone away) I'm not convinced ...

what did you and your mk3 leon do today

Invoice says they are Hubcentric £50 a pair, you will also need the extended wheel bolts as well £10 per 10, if your car has alloy locking bolts you will need to order the correct ones to match your key as well ontop of that.
Hope that helps.
Have you got a link to where you bought them from?

Ok there from hubcentric but brand is Precision. Hard to tell in photos of spacers but they look a lot better in person with the slightly wider stance. I will ask the mechanic what the part numbers are next week when i see him.
Front stock, no spacers
Rear 15mm spacers.
Nah it was done at an independent, light misting of oil, said to keep an eye on it. They never said it needs doing, just me trying to keep the car in good condition.
Black Plasti dipped the chrome round the front grille. A nice cheap and simple mod that makes the front look miles better imo especially since i have 99% blacked out the front badge too.
That looks spot on, been meaning to do that to mine
Saw this and thought I'd have a go a making some from some ABS carbon effect sheet I already had. Noticed there was a third, unused fixing point behind the arch liner, ordered the square plugs and screws from ebay so they're now held on by 3 screws. difficult to see on a black car but I'm happy with the result, cost me £4.Cheers fella.
I got them from eBay, listed for the Cupra but meh they fit.

The only thing I would say is the listing shows them fitted behind the standard arch liner but for that to happen I think you have to cut into the arch liner (not that the listing says that!!) so I’ve fitted them on top & they still look good.

They look better than the 1s I bought for a fraction of the price as well. I’d happily buy a set of them if they were available

Thanks. If I remember, the A3 ABS sheet was around £10 from ebay and I only used about half of it, I cut it with heavy duty scissors then I cleaned it up with a fine grade sanding block. Some of the stuff on there has a really lame carbon effect, this wasn't too bad though. Extra fixings for the arch liner was these, Arch liner fixings.They look better than the 1s I bought for a fraction of the price as well. I’d happily buy a set of them if they were available

Fitted mine today, only issue I had was not realising I needed to lift the bonnet higher than the support to clip the strut on. I was trying to compress it with 1 hand and introduced my neighbours to some strong language.
I noticed with mine that where it stops supporting the weight is the perfect height to release to bonnet to close. Pretty happy with them for the price.
