Guest, 🚨New Stock alert: Premium CUPRA valve caps now available in the store 👉 Order now from the merchandise store
It's almost there to start the fun.
Pretty much everything off the underside bar the rear brake lines. Going to sort the wiring the rest of the week as that's a bit spaghetti junction and needs tidying up and tucking away or removing for spraying.
Progress might be quick now, not working for a few weeks due to having no work. But then again it might be slow because I need to find a new job or a way of getting cash in to pay the rent on the garage.
I got my Weitecs last week though, might have a spree this week and get my injectors, MAF etc and a digigauge.

i tell you what mate, you are a brave man for doing all this, i wouldnt dream of touching anything with wires! i hate electrics, but i respect the fact your doing it all yourself! keep up the good work!
Car electrics scare me too mate, but you just have to bite the bullet and do it.
Santys been today and dropped a few bits off, so I took some pics of all the bits I have collected in the last few weeks.
25mm Front ARB and 28mm rear.
Liquid Gauge
Also got my front lower brace and rear upper.

Are those Weitec coilovers Elliot? Thinking i should have gone for those over the AP's now. The AP's seem to be very bouncy when going into and coming out of corners
Nice selection of parts you got there

Yeah there Weitecs mate, heard the ride isn't far off standard. I have FK's on at the minute but they do the exact same thing, bounce in and out of corners, so I think there either shite or fooked.

Nice dent in the door, the whole thing was covered in filler
It's hard to see, but the whole door had been skimmed fron the top curve. So I am collecting a new one on Saturday.
Oh My Gosh! What an earth are you doing!?? Don't think any1 has gone this far with their cupra.
Are you finishing it in chrome...? Imagine that! OR are you going for the extreme rat look! Cover it in salt, leave it in the rain all week...

Because I am going IHI now
Liquid gauge is a diagnostic tool.
Basically Riko I am stripping all the red off down to the original paint (some bare metal) to start a fresh, new colour, whole new spec.
Gonna do a job, do it properly

No, wont be going for that kit, dont have that cash! Haven't got it yet, haven't even rang about it....but £500 for the tubby and the manifold. Good times.
Little update, how it's standing now.
In no real rush to finish it now because I need to find a IHI.
