From the pics i can see ur car is not lowerd. Are you wanting the same size rims? as i think going bigger without lowering could be a mistake? I still think Lowering it on the same size rims is a must when sprint alone are only £100 (if ur on a budget). If you want me to photo shop some images for you mate just send me over some pics of wheels u like.

The spray job cost me £200 it was done by my cousin. Skorchio i wanted 18" really and yes i would get it lowered a bit too. I think 16" are a bit too small for the leons. I have had a little play with photo shop already but thanks for the offer.

Brilliant... I'm hoping to get mine done in the next few weeks, and yours looks great! I'm driving around without the front ones at the moment as I took them off to see what was behind, it does look a bit strange now! Is your car Azalea red? Its a nice colour in those pics anyway :clap:

Painted strips: AWESOME.

All Mk1 Non-FL owners should do it :p

Just looks so much more fluid and less "non-colour coded bumpers". Very nice.

Shame it didn't come standard, really. Makes the car nearer to the face-lift appearance, in my opinion.

The non-FL always been a wolf in sheeps clothing to me, but with painted strips... no more :D
