Newbie progress thread

[Craiglar]

Hi I'm a newbie,

Got myself a seat leon 2.0tdi 55 plate at the start of its life I didn't do much other then yellow tint my fogs,

Then I started thinking a year later let's start making the car look different so it went from this

To this

So basically brought fr front and back bumpers and then the wheels which I'm have trouble with at the min (see my other tread)

Hi, nice colour mate. Hope you get those tyres sorted, also need some SEAT centre caps for those alloys!

Any other mods planned?

 

[Craiglar]

Wind deflectors probs black wrap grill and mirrors

Looks much better with the FR bumpers.

You could vinyl wrap the front grill surround and get the mirror caps done in gloss black, that would look good. Also confider the triple r composites front splitter. Search triple t composites on Facebook

I will have a look on brothers fb

This is a picture of it off the triple r Facebook page. It's around £90 including postage I think

Yh that splitter is nice might save some penny's after tyres

Remaps what's the pros and cons in this and best place in nottingham?

Probably go to shark performance

 

[mike0105]

Remap will boost performance, making the car faster. It might make it more economical if you use the torque increase when hypermiling.

Downsides depend on the car. It will highlight any issues the car already has and could increase wear, depeinding how you drive it.

Your insurance will increase, but probably not by much. Always declare all mods, you don't want to risk being uninsured!

Get quality tyres first though......

Just fitted spigot rings to wheels that made a big difference

Plans for this pay packet are black wrap grille and mirrors,

Thinking of a back box cupra style anyone come across one?

I'd get some decent tyres and get my new alloys on before getting a new back box, if it was my car

 

[Craiglar]

Got new alloys mate
