Just a quick intro, I’m sure we’ll be seeing a few of you at trax in a few weeks anyway but thought I’d post a few pictures of the current seat and the previous ones.

so the current is a Leon cupra mk3.5 lux that’s been bagged on airlift performance 3P, with rotiform LSR 3 piece wheels. Not running any power mods yet other than exhaust but I’ve got a ram air kit with turbo elbow and turbo muffler delete waiting for me to fit, then off for tuning.

The car before this was a Ibiza Fr 115, but didn’t stay long enough for any mods.

Before that we had an 2.0tdi exeo also bagged along with brembo 18z’s, custom cobra interior etc.

The Leon will have a lot more mods on the way, so if you’re interested, follow me on Instagram 😊

Thought I’d do a quick update on the car and what we’ve done for the 2022 show season.
The first job we finished off was the boot build and rear seat delete.

Wrapped the seat backs in 3m dinoc with a cupra inlay.

But the bigger work we’ve done is carbon skimming. We bought a set of wide wings, shaved the back for better fitment and then turned our hand to carbon skinning them, not something we’d ever tried before so there was a bit of a learning curve!

Then turned our attention to doing the spoiler. Getting the stock spoiler off was a massive pain, and unfortunately wasn’t too kind to the boot lid either, so unless you absolutely love the finished product, I’m not sure it’s 100% worth it.

I’ll add some more pictures when we get it in the light as well.
But here’s a few from the first show of the year at ultimate dubs.

Always a pleasure to see this on Instagram, looks like loads of tedious work went in but the outcome looks well worth it!
