[Craig!]

Cool, also noticed you have/had a silver Cupra too!

 

[dav]

[Dan_the_man]

Thats really nice!

 

[CH1]

Tasty! A lot to be said about silver and silver alloys with brembos looks the business. Looks ace without looking OTT!

Looks like there are afew fast cars around your street too

I love it!!! I want it!!!

Brakes look very posh - bet they were expensive!!!

Love the numberplate too, I bet there cant be that many "cupra" plates left to buy. I already have a personalised plate, so I would have to make do with that

How much did those OZ's set you back? They Look Sweet!!

Multi-spokes and mk3's were made for eachother!

 

[Craig!]

Wheels were £650 from SEAT and the tyres plus fitting were £244, usually the retail on the rims alone is £180 + VAT each.

A little more progress, although some of the bit's have been on for a good few weeks I've only got round to posting the pictures.

First off is the Forge FMIC, took around one hour to fit once the bumper was off, but time was spent trimming even amounts off the inner bumper and fitting some black aluminium honeycomb mesh. I must say it's a lovely piece of kit, well thought out and the fitment was spot on, all parts needed to fit it were provided by Forge too!

As well as fitting the intercooler I also got my previous Brembo’s fitted which are un-faded and still bright red, which I must say look much better IMO.

Also fitted the LCR splitter last week, however due to the wet weather I’ve not had a chance to get any pictures!

Something tells me you got deep pockets.
Nice mods,can you tell the diffrence straight away with the fmic.
You've changed the discs aswell.

 

[Colin]

looking good mate. i even think ill agree on the brembos but you should put the other discs back on!!!

 

[Craig!]

Aye discs are from the current set of Brembo's... The pads were mated to those discs and i've always liked to keep matching sets. I must say, even though the previous discs looked trick I think the solid ones brake just aswell!

 

[Copra]

wow, your old brembos had seen some serious action good lad

Love your car though, do miss my ibiza cupra at times

Mark

 

[Craig!]

Cheers Mark!! Loving your new Leon too, looks almost as good as ya Ibiza did...

nice pics craig, looking forward too these new bitz, being going to get them on for agers now

 

[PhilW]

Looking good craig fair play, how did you get the handle de-locked, is it a seat part cover?


And have you got the 'spare' set of brembos still?

 

[Craig!]

Got a new passenger side handle from a LHD car, same goes for the mirror. Don't have the spare set anymore, a friend kindly took them off my hands!

Will post some pictures later of what this up and coming week has to hold.
