Haha Lee, insurance is cheap enough for me :)

Quick update;

Lamin-X ordered, going for yellow over the front fog lights, also ordered a yellow SeatCupra.Net sticker :)
Going for a yellow theme, yellow callipers hopefully when I fit my spacers.

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

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!

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!

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 ;)
