Bought some jame coilovers off ebay, got them delivered the following day, perfect.
Tried to get them fitted, but the fronts were for the standard cupra, and not the cupra r, doh. Returned them, the shop said they would swap them asap for me. Got a call from them today, saying that they had stopped doing the cupra r fronts because there were loads of problems with them.... at the moment ive got coilovers on the back and not on the front, and they are not able to get me fronts....gutted. Wanted to know if anyone has heard of this, please help want to get this sorted, cheers

i am assuming the cupra fronts didn't have the mounts for the lcr arb drop links? is that not the only diff between cupra/R fronts shocks?

Yeah I think it is, anybody used the standard leon ones and modded them? might be a bit daft question

this is the kit you need for a cupra r. no dont modify it to fit. i thought about it and its not worth it. these are cheap enough and are jamex. they fit skoda octavia rs, seat leon cupra r, audi tt 2wd. i wouldnt bother foning the company and asking as i foned and asked them and they were reluctant to sell them to me as they were listed for a tt and said they arnt sure if they would fit and didnt want the hassle of me returning them. they are the same part number 150117 that fit the cupra r also. same exact same product, just like the ones from the golf fit bora and a3 and also normal cupra and leon. these have the anti roll bar fitted different.
