whenever i'm over in kuwait, theres loadsa kitted out hummer's and corvettes etc, but not much done to the cars that usually get done over here.

btw hope im not intruding on the 1.6 page too much, being a diseasel driver but just wondered where you guys were from

havent had any issues with 18"s on the car, i had 17"s on before and i cant say it feels any different with 18's. 17's looked abit small thats why i went for the lcr alloys.

hi m8 do u have 2 do much wrk to get the cupra bumpers on i think i remeber some1 sayin that you have to get a bigger towing eye and that. also with the induction kit that is waiting to come what sort of induction kit is it because all i have seen is panel filters?

theres quite alot of part numbers to get for the bumpers and sideskirts, best thing to do is to search for the complete list should be here somewhere on the site.

yep a different towing eye cover, different grilles for the front bumper and also bumper guides etc are needed. Once you have all the parts bought though it isnt all that hard to change the bumpers round though.

not too sure about the induction kit yet i might get a bmc cda i think thats what its called, or just go with a panel filter...

is the bmc cda a cone induction filter and do the panel filters actually make much difference?
