Yeah forgot the headlights were different to cupra/bocs. I was thinking of tinting the rear headlights but dont know whether to go for it or not. Ill be getting HID kit for mine too but after my major mods..and the spacers...dont know about them..I do look at my car everytime and wishing for spacers, but not really an important mod for me

Do you think your rear wheels stick in abit then now it's lowered?

The rear wheels on mine definitely dont look right in the arches, the front look okay but would like to get some spacers all round really. Looks a bit un-stable when the wheels are lost in the arches!

Yeah they do stick in abit but that's what happens when a car is lowered, I don't know why though, then people get spacers to even them out...unless I'm totally wrong lol.

Yeah spacers all round would be better, just abit expensive for ones that are over 10mm :( especially h+r ones!!

Little update, had its first service about 2 months ago and had the oil topped up, driving last night and the bloody engine oil light came on!! It annoys me so much when the light comes on! Went into the dealers just now hoping to see if any mechanics were about but none were there as it was quiet :( so booked it in for Monday hoping to get it sorted!
Also put in Tesco premium for a 2 hour journey from Birmingham to my hometown...def not having that in my car again as it didn't keep my car nippy when my foot went down so ill stick to total premium!..rant over!

Did you check the oil level the next day after the service? What oil did they put in? Sometimes they fill it and don't check the dip stick!
Your never going to take this exhaust off my hands LOL!!

Your probably smack on!! I only say that because mine was supposed have had a 'light' service (check oil, change filter if needed, washer bottle topped up, coolant check) but nothing was done/checked! It took 2 litres of oil to show on the dip stick!
Haha I would dare sell it to anyone else!!

Well we'll see what they do on Monday...receptionist said they'll top it up and measure how much it'll use up.
If you sell it to someone else then you'll make me angry...you don't wanna see me when I'm angry!! Lol...yied to win on the euros by betting so I could get the exhaust from you asap but it didn't happen :( lol

Just got my car back and they've topped my oil up, but only 1l but when the light comes on then they'll top it up for me free of charge, which isn't bad but will have to wait until seat officially has a solution to fix the oil consumption. Not sure if its just me or the oil but its made my car feel more responsive.

Also they got rid of the bad smell comng from the ac, and also done a campaign on the latch on the bonnet or something like that. Apparently people will get letter s about getting it done from their dealers in about 4 weeks time but they did mine early.

Also saw a tribu Leon cupra with black wheels and btcc bodykit which looked surprisingly nice! i want it!!!!

Well last night, I found a nail lodged in my tyre but no air was coming out so had it sorted out after the gym and hey presto..the tyre is back to good and new!...but then got home and found a little gash on the tyre on the other side of the car!!! :( I pulled out a piece of glass (I think) but the bit I pulled out wasnt big at all but dropped it and couldnt find it so I couldnt inspect it.

Is this something I should sort out straight away or is it something I can live with? because £15 to sort the tyre out as little as that is abit expensive..unless someone can come up with a cheaper solution?
