Just ordered a lower splitter from Seat, will be here wednesday

Should have some good progress pics tomorrow fingers crossed, got a very busy day ahead with claying, polishing and general buftying ( weather permitting) as well as interior fitting and attempted tidying up inside

 

[dicko's]

its now parked outside our house, with 2 front seats and a set of clocks in

its been washed and clayed but not polished yet as it keeps raining LOL

 

[dicko's]

Also got 2 front seats in, tidied wiring up and attached clocks to steering column until wiring is sorted later on this week, car should definitely be ready to go to RS National Day next weekend, even though it will still be in a state of no carpets and doorcards etc

cars coming along great, alot of work has allready gone into this in so little time, would be nice to see this on the roads around Teesside again, it looks a great little track weapon and it deserves another chance....well done

 

[dicko's]

going along the black intercooler lines now, think it blends in better and wont affect the cooling so its all good...

opinions? theyre just shopped but will be getting done this week along with the other million jobs lol

the black look very stealth! i like

 

[pdcupra]

that front number plate is just crazy and its yellow? Is this going to be used as a daily/show car or a track car?

 

[dancupra]

fmic looks loads better imho

the front number plate is not staying on the car, it will be replaced with a standard size plate in the correct colour and without the gatso deflective spray on

Can i just point out the car isnt in use at the minute, i wouldnt risk driving it with a plate that small id be better off just not having one and pleading it must have fallen off

and its going to be a daily car yes

 

[pdcupra]

if its going to be a daily, in needs lowering a tad more to get the wheels to sit nicely in the arches!

its on coilovers so will prob have a mess about, although from a realistic point of view any lower and itll be struggling to get around certain places, awaiting leon cupra front splitter so will see how low it is then.

Hats off to you guys your certainly getting it all together pretty pronto. I have been keeping an eye on this thread I must admit I didnt think i was going to be that keen on the front bumper but must confess it looks really nice! I also agree with a few of the others the intercooler looks good black as it ties in with your black wheels and dark bump strips.

[dicko's]

gatso deflective spray tell me more!!!

i dont know where he got it from,but basically anything that flashes on it produces this...

id imagine you would be able to get it off ebay, not that i condone anything like this of course
