I actually have blue interior lights on my Cupra. But fitted white LED to the vanity in case I ever needed to see. But I fitted white interior to Sealion2 and they look amazing (especially at night and even if I say so myself). Tempted to swap out the blue for white.

my car takes the same as far as i know, but i meant the actual variety of bulb. i have been looking at these OSRAM bulbs for a while for my sidelights and at the last minute i decided to try philips xtremevision. now im wondering whether i should give the cheaper OSRAMS a chance inside?

edit: ill go for these bulbs as if i decide theyre too bright, i can put them in the number plate socket instead

Ahead of the meet tomorrow... just about there now...

Tried some different products today,
- Autoglym snow foam, quite good and smells great!
- Meguairs NXT shampoo
- Obsession wax 5 year anniversary ceramic wax, it’s not the easiest to apply, suspect the temperature had something to do with that, but it gives a great deep finish.

That wax has definitely made a deeper colour, looks almost wet but not lol

Did you pay the full £70 a pot for it?

Yeah, got a right arm pump applying it though, needs to be warmer I think.

I did pay the full amount for the wax. Bigger pot than I expected so should last a good while! Hoping it’s worth the money, obsession stuff normally is though.

Okay so... been debating a couple of things... one is to get the plastic in between the doors wrapped in gloss black a per the newer mk2 cars.. for the price (£30) it’s a no brainier... if I don’t like it I’ll pull it off.. also looking at the below... using my excellent skills on my phone I have mocked up the below... I know, I know... you can hardly see what I’ve done....

I know I was saying at the meet I wanted to keep it stock as a sleeper but some minor changes just might work, right?

Thoughts?

Haha. Yeah... I’m not so keen on the front. I may get it done and see what it looks like in the flesh, if it looks rubbish I can just peel it off.

You might be right, if you get it done you will have to take some pics and post them. Your based York way right?

Messing about with some carbon fibre warp... had the wrap a while but never used it, not bad as a first effort...

Just subtle bits and bobs...

I like the back but not the front and the Carbon looks very nice, Subtle not in your face.

Was it you who was thinking about removing the LEON Letters on the Back, I think the cars all look better with them off.

Ive actually found a splitter that I like so the front will stay as is now anyway as it will only really work with the full red bumper.

I actually prefer the mk2 with the LEON still on it. Its quite a big space to have empty... I'll breakout my excellent Photoshop skills and see what it look like.
