Sure are (thanks). Issues I found with the kit I received was that the hole in the bonnet bracket was 8mm but the supplied ball studs were M6. Yes it has washers but I still wrapped a piece of 1mm wire around the thread to keep it central in the hole and stop it moving. Also I found that with the bonnet open, the strut angle is at the absolute limit it can go before it tries to pop itself off the lower ball stud. Time will tell. Interested to see if you find the same with yours.Are these the Amazon ones on special offer I listed up for everyone? Mine still haven't arrived yet!!!

What does it look like from the side? Is it ball like?
Haha no worries I know what you mean - isnt obvious if its one of the golf ball shaped ones, or an elongated cylinder type etc
Looking at the website, it could be any shape! https://billetworkz.com/collections/volkswagen/products/matte-black-6-speed-velocity-left-up
I got some additional driving profiles (not some hack, it needs SWAP codes. So please don't message me asking if I can enable this for you)
It helps me a bit in my driving profiles research, which you can read about here: https://github.com/jilleb/MQB-FPA
PS: yes, there's really a Clubsport mode on the infotainment units.

Genuinely curious question, how did you obliterate a Golf R? My understanding is they are 300bhp (or 310 in some cases) and 4motion. If I am right, Cupra's come in 280, 290 or 300. Are you running stage 2 or some other performance upgrades?
Only asking as I often consider a Leon Cupra ST or a Golf R, and the Golf R usually seems to come out on top in almost every test and comparison I have read.
Cheers.
Your red interior trim looks good. Is it vinyl? Want to do mine to black, not a fan of the chrome
I’ve done the same and looks miles better doesn’t it

Went to fit the new Yellow Stuff pads I won on here recently and found the discs are worn out, they're 0.2 mm thinner than the minimum written on the disc 
. £137 later and there are two more Brembo drilled discs on the way.

Thanks. Yes it's vinyl wrap, although it's faded a bit now. I might have to redo it. There are better pics and more info here.....

I had to pull out the central console to fit a Stop Start memory module and have done a user guide if it helps you https://forums.seatcupra.net/index.php?threads/cupra-280-2014-main-control-panel-removal.449954/ @paddy6789 also provided the Seat Workshop manuals that will show you how stuff is...

Only on standing start, once moving the Golf R has to carry the extra weight, which allows the lighter Cupra to be quicker. That' s why the Cupra 280 back in 2014 was quicker round the green mile than the R.
