Dan's MK2 Emocion Red Leon Cupra...Now with Lamin-X...

[Al]

After reading your thread, I'll be surprised if you still have this car next month. Ha.

x2

I like the red car you have now - red is the best colour

You're off your head Danny!

You must pay a fortune every year in insurance change administration charges!

 

[dannychapman10]

Haha thank you gentlemen
Well the Cupra is the most expensive insurance of any car I've had but has dropped since turning 21

But yeah, really like the red and as I'll probably be getting tied down with a house this year, it'll be staying! Just need to get her ready for show season

This came today
Bet you can't guess what it is

Got the fog lights out, really easy to do on the Cupra/FR bumper. One philips screw on each grill, give it a good tug and then 3 torx screws on each fog lights, unclip the connector and it's out.

Got to work on the first one;

And then the second;

Also toyed with this idea;

But the Lamin-X is pretty thick stuff and the lenses just wouldn't sit back properly no matter how much a trimmed and tinkered with them!

 

[dannychapman10]

And here's the results!

Proper chuffed with them!
Lamin-X is really good quality stuff, a lot better then I expected. It's very thick but once it's heated up, it's very easy to apply and work with.
There are a few tiny bubbles which I'm sure will work their way out over time and it was foggy today so I could actually use my foglights!

All in all, for £12, bargain! And enough left over to do a proper job on the indicator lenses!

 

[dannychapman10]

Next on the list to do, I need to get my car lower!

Not looking for coilovers at the minute but if anyone has bought some coilovers for their Leon and is getting rid of any lowering springs, send me a pm

I have smoked laminX fogs but want a set of yellow ones too so I can chop and change
