Looking good mate. Glad you like the carbon fibre mirror covers. Really weren't my cup of tea. Looks like you've been spending some big dollars on that mate. How are your Brembos?

well i haven't changed the Leon written badge doesn't look like its ever been touched either?

the brembo's are not in the best of condition, they need repainting i think the lacquer is pealing i would love to have them shiny red again

still so much to sort out! i have so many plans just lack of funds!

If you get a bit of cash and you want to get the Brembos done like mine give me a shout. I can put you in touch with someone who will give you pointers, or if you prefer you can send your callipers to him and he'll do them for you. Well pleased with mine!

Well they're quality parts, so I don't think there's much of a performance increase, if any (though I did replace the redstuff pads with DS2500s), but they look better and I now have piece of mind since they've been fully stripped and refurbished, so I know that there's nothing wrong with them

update*

right litte update just had a split boot cv done to tune of £97 at JKM

going in end of the month for MOT pray it passes also having a forge 007p dump valve fitted same time

then i need to make a choice blue flame cat back exahust system or refurb alloys or buy BBS CH alloys

not sure if i want to refurb my standard wheels in either ford gun metal grey, GOLD or ford ST Orange

also bought this little seat belt gismo a tensioner stops you moving when you go round corners (taken from my friends jap import honda integra) grips you nice and tight

also was looking round tesco's found this little anti slip matt which is coming in useful for my phone and wallet only £2.50 you can cut it to size so thought why not

few pics of the car clean & the TIP

shiny

sitting about

side on

TIP Forge goodness + green cotton pannel filter tucked away

still need to source a 225 steering wheel as well!
