Yeah I saw that in your thread. It's powdercoated mate and it cost me 210. As I left the car and they took the wheel off and put it on...only half a day so it wasn't bad but they do a good job on it....scuffed my back alloy though the other night...was pissed! Lol...only a white dot though so nothing major

*UPDATE*

Well I took my car in yesterday for a new breather pipe put in along with a software update and just picked up. Hopefully this will fix the oil problems so I can get her remapped soon! Was given a courtesy car and I became a soccer dad for 2 days!...Surprisingly its nice to drive! Kept pushing the brake pedal down to change gear though lol

Also I saw a orange cupra with the Cupra decals on the alloys, 10 plate...I'm sure it was someones on here?

EDIT: Its duffy_90's old cupra..his was the only orange cupra on here that I've seen. My mind can rest now!

Notices Any difference with the breather part and software mate? That cupra sounds good decals on the alloys is a good idea may have to try think something similar up :)

They would still have to weigh the oil first and do a 60 mile test before putting the breather pipe in so get asking about it now and then when the time comes, you wont have to wait when they have to order it from Seat HQ

*UPDATE*

Well not updated this in a long time but the only major update to my car is having a new engine put in. After the dealers having my car for over 3 weeks, stripped the engine and couldnt find a problem why it was using too much oil, they asked Seat what to do and they said to put in a new engine. Got the car back tonight, whivh i must admit, felt abit weird getting back into my car and going back to dsg as i was given an ibiza ST as a courtesy car. I hope this engine will do me well and not give me any problems *touch wood*. Just need to run her in and get past the 6k miles as i was told it will use alot of oil within that period. Also got told i need a new front tyre because on one of them, the inner part of the wheel was thin so order a new wheel (same wheels as before) and will get put on tomorrow morning.
Upon collection, they valeted my car inside and out, even though its crap weather at the moment, and also put in £10 worth of vpower :)

So glad ive got my car back...been dying for it ever since i let her go :(

These are more hassle than they are worth. I take my hat off to you mate for staying with it so long. I have sold mine, and bought a corsa VXR in Arden blue which I picked up today. Hope you don't have any more oil or engine problems, right pain in the bum

This was the only problem ive had really but yeah i hope ots the last of it...i just love the car too much. How does the vxr compare to the boc or you not driven it properly? I do like the vxr's in blue.

just being reading all through this and the car looks awsome mate. got two questions .. i have a copa ibiza just a 1.4. but with the vinyl on the roof mirrors and black sprayed wheels. wanting to change the bulbs next and seen the ones u got so looked at them on ebay. you had any problems and have the bulbs lasted but also any melting because do they give off more heat do you no?

also..:think: number plate light. does your cupra have two slots .. or have you chnaged something there?

Thanks for the kind words buddy....the lights on the front ive had no problems with so far, still running fine and all working. Funny you mention the license plate because one blew the other day after a few months so put it back to stock lights for the time being but cupras have 2 slots for the lights whereas the normal ibizas have one i believe, hope that helps mate
