can you give us a rough idea as to what it would cost to spray passanger door and passanger rear door along with the bootlid. Its a black majic leon cupra R
yeah,
depends upon the reason for painting,
doors £55 each, blend the quarter £65 the front wing £45 the boot £65.
stripping/build £58
plus vat and any dent repairs etc

right guy's
seats are in, my fingers kill what a mamoth task it was,
heres the secret, they are actually covers you fit yourself, how ever you do need basic skills, hog rings and pliers etc, its a long long job, taken me about 6hrs lol.
i didnt want to tell any one till i saw them to see what they were like, now i'll prob get shot down in flames but i dont have a grand to spend on retrimming seats and these are a good alternative, for less than £200 too.

also added an s3 engine cover

Did you have to mod this in any way to make it fit Jake?
Also how much was it
yeah was a pain in the arse lol. took about an hour to do, there £70 from audi, like hens theeth 2nd hand
seats are a big no no for me, the rest of the car looks a top job and you can see someones put alot of time and attention to detail into it, then to put seat covers in? i think they prob look/feel worse in real life as well, i would of left the standard seats in till you could buy the right seat the car deserves
on a side note, i have a bit of engine smell, like a burning, now i dont know if im burning crap off from all the work i have done or if my hid's are causing it
did anyones hids smell first couple of uses?

Not keen on the rear lights but the rest is very nice. Alot of hard work done here and it shows
the lights are really dark in some pics, tbh they have a really light coating, but i think my phone camera takes different lightings differently,
Awesome, I love this car, and good to see its now ready to go! I want lots of bits painting, wish i had the cash!
