I'm quite sure that leon cupra's come with 312mm's mate as DPJ sold his to Guinness when he upgraded. Might be worth asking Dave..

galvanising spray eh? looks very neat and tidy, I can feel this weekends project coming on!

Get the pics up with the spacers! Don't worry about the dirt, you should see GoonerMikes!!

My car doesn't seem to have the same gear selector arm as yours, I couldn't see any space where you could move the cable to. Which sucks.... and I found someone who could drill and tap it all in a lathe for the price of 1 lunchtime beer!

Ok, I'll take a few pics tomorrojust for you, Pete :)

Yea, the Galv spray is realy good stuff, its better than Hamerite and its cheaper too ;)

Can you take a pic of your gear selector, I'm sure it could still be done some how.

V-Maxx coilovers and its only about 20mm lower than standard (remember that the cupra is about 25mm lower than the rest of the ibiza range as standard though) :D.

Wheel colour is Anthrecite (no filters used on the pics) but they have a matt finish so they look different when you look at them from different angles, also the light conditions affect how they look too :)

Yea, I use Photomatics to do the HDR pics, tweeked in photoshop befor and after ;).

Yeah sweet! That's a nice stance on the car, not just slam! It looks ready for business. Very very nice. I'll whip the gear thingy out asap.
Mike, I nearly cleaned your car tonight, it was making me feel I'll when I walked past! Only joking....

Yea, its function over looks mate. Its pushing 225-230bhp at the mo. Just need a turbo back exhaust and maybe a high flow mani to finish it off.
