cheers! really appreciate that! yeah its as easy as that really. take off all the handles, lights, sun visors and the pillars. then just retrim it and pop it all back together
just replaced the OEM bulbs with LED bulbs to each of the rear courtesy lights. took a while to sort out but they look much better then the OEM bulbs.

probably going to lower it. but that won't be until after xmas. need funds for a drum kit. long story! lol
but yeah i'll get some coillies after xmas then i'll play about with the breaks. i'm thinking of painting the calipers but i'm going to buy some used ones. then do them up and then swap them for the ones i have on the car. then who knows! lol hat about you mate?
cool, havent got a specific plan at the mo, at this time i want a FMIC, perhaps a Cat Back Blueflame exhaust, front upper and lower s3 strut braces and the rear upper strut. but all will come at different times. funds are fairly low but im trying

So i'll be putting new disks and pads on as soon as i get the money (next week or so) going for the EBC Green stuff pads all round and EBC Ultimax disks too. Also I've got some brake calipers that i'm reconditioning. so new seals, bleed nipples, pistons and a lick of paint.
some before and after shots on the rear calipers
And all of them all painted up

They look awesome! How did you get them so clean before painting? I am looking for tips as I have bought some 312mm calipers and they need a refurb.
i used a dremel with a load of these http://www.dremel-direct.com/acatalog/428_19_0mm_Wheel_Shaped_Steel_Brush.html
took me a while but it's quite satisfying doing it. especial when you see the end result. I also used a round sanding adapter as well for the rusty bits. I also ground off the casting lines and the audi VW badges on them too

I recomend the ebc ultimax disks as I'm using them but as for the pads I wouldn't go for the green stuff, I would go with ferrodo ds2500s as the leons are to heavy and powerfull for green stuff red stuff at a push but then again I don't like ebc pads
ok cool. i'll have a look into them. but money is a bit tight so may just have to get the green stuff
I've just received my my new pistons and seals for my calipers today! only ordered them on thursday night so i'm quite impressed.
I'll get some pics up as soon as i've done them.
