yes the above has been done took his bloody ages filing them all down lol! Clearly you are rich as I said above to afford a cupra bumper and paint and FMIC and hoses lucky boy you are! The cheapest place as you say to get cupra bumper from it David at sere or if you are lucky ebay but they are so rare. You will easily sell your faclift bumper on here as pre-facelift peeps like me will be after it, bought mine for 100 including grill and painted just as a guide price.

Which pillars? The b pillars are already done? Lol

You actually gonna go ahead with cupra front end then? Will look good mind
The ones at the front inside of the car, I did them in carbon but fancy a change , don't want to go ott with carbon , and yeah I'm going ahead with the front bumper , I'll vinyl the bottom lip when it comes back from paint aswell, and dill and file the tow cover while I've got the bumper in peices.
Here's some pics of the Tow Eye cover filed out (courtesy of Altech):

Considered doing mine but I've not really noticed any performance loss on my boggo' standard PD100 lol!

The pre-facelift foglights are £28ea from eBay - Just had to buy one for my Mk4 as one smashed.

Also regarding the lining the roof with Vinyl - I saw 2 cars at the RR on Saturday and one had the matte 3M DiNoc and the other the gloss and both had funny marks, the guys later said that they were where birdshit had landed and permanently marked the vinyl. Food for thought!

Think a white cupra will look great!
Thanks for that mate, looks like I'll have some fun filling time :p , the roofs a no go now , I'm after a crisp clean look for the car , fogs cost loads! Shame mine Are facelift!

Got my Cupra bumper from EBay - £120 delivered without the upper grilles (But I reused my sport grilles as the slats are the same as the cupra anyway) It had a slight scuff but it polished out.

I can sort you out a fog light swap mate, will save you pennies from buying them

Yeah that would be ace Scott , need to get the bumper here before I do that though ,need to order more tint film too!

I went to college until 5pm by the time I got home too late to work and I did an art course so was all coursework so had to spend alot of time on that. Was all a waste thou as I never went to uni after 3 years of college but at least I got no debt!

My dad bought my last car for me this one he bought it then I sold my car the next next day and had the rest of the money saved up and I gave it all to him for the full price. Still wouldn't have done it without him. I know my Mum & Dad will help me towards the deposit on my own place too but obviously I have alot saved up I don't want their help as things do not feel like they are mine otherwise and feel good to do it on your own,.
