ScottHmk4 - 1.2 Cupra replica (Now Sold)

[cupra.al]

im not a fan of stickers atall but i dont mind seeing them on other peoples cars.
i think the cheque sticker in front of the rear wheel could look alright rather than having it on the door.
also maybe if the whole mirror was covered in cheque might look a bit better but i still wouldnt be a big fan.
dont take it personally, i still think your car looks really smart.

Have to agree I am afraid the only stickers I like are the down and out ones and SCN ones or CC REVO etc. But your car is fantastic thou as said just my opinion is all.

 

[ScottHmk4]

well the vxr decal might be comin off depending on the reply from the company i bought them from, as the fade parts have literally faded to nothing, so i have blank squares on the car with no black fade, its the 2nd time this has happened so thinking of ditching them completely unless they offer more replacements, if they dont offer new replacement will need to looks at a new design to keep a unique feature to the car

 

[BeezaDave]

i think the decals look excellent. really bring your own unique style to the car.

 

[ScottHmk4]

well added the final stickers and i am now happier, didnt put on the kilmarnock ring ones haha didnt look rite......
anyways heres some pics, oh and 'cupra.al' i decided to put them at the rear wheel, nice choice balances it out better

tbh pics arent great as the runway isnt massive to get good angles but gives a good idea, hope u like!!!!

 

[ScottHmk4]

will try get better pics soon, when u see it all together with the roof it looks pretty good.

That's a shame about the vxr decal faiding. I thought you bought a genuine one from Vauxhall?

I like the new chequered decals, but think they'd look better if they faided into the body work like the vxr one..

 

[ScottHmk4]

nah m8 vauxhall one was like £140 odds, too expensive, dont think side would suit fading effect, will leave them be for now

 

[ScottHmk4]

just clocked over 30000 miles the other day, impressive for an 02 plate i would say......crap pic but states 30022

Looking again I quite like the one by the wheel arch agree be even better is it faded slightly, still not keen on the wing mirror ones think it's cos they are a different angle to the mirror ones. I liked the VXR decal actually but I just kept looking at it thinking it's a Seat though!

 

[ScottHmk4]

just bought smoked side repaeters but dont really like em.....+ they glass/plastic on them is cheap and the glass like came off, so out with the super glue which made things worse as it dripped inside them coz they dont go together well, now 1 looks ok and the other is fcukd, they dont fit flush to the car and all in all were a waste of money, so tried modifying them to fit better using old housing and then f**ked tht aswell so now am stuck with them, so ordered a new standard repeater for about £9 from seat, hows that for wasting £24 odds and gaining nothing!!!!! mega no happy, lesson leared today folks, dont buy ebay side repeaters coz they are rotton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BigWill]

ahh sorry to hear that mate, how about when you get the originals, you get some tinting spray and do it that way, at least you know'll they will fit

 

[knight85]

i know all too well about those side repeaters!.....utter rubbish!

as will said use some tinting spray?

 

[Aimez]

If you tint them take them off for MOT thou. I got some and modified them with some stuff the ebayer sent me, one side was a boge job though as there was not enough wire the play with. Then the body shop broke mine and shoved a load of black sealant around it and shoved it back in so had to buy more!

 

[knight85]

can you tint them on the car? just put paper and masking tape around the repeater? then use laquer to protect it?

 

[Aimez]

they are easy to remove just use a screw driver with a cloth to protect the paint and they pop out they have metal clip/hinge on one side, just unscrew the bulb other wise you will have to cover half the car in newspaper.

cheers aimez might do that soon....did you buy the stuff of fleabay? then laquer it after? was it a problem for MOT?

 

[Aimez]

No mine are legal smoked one meant for a golf/polo with modified bulb holders is all. Didn't want tinted ones they could easily look shite and maybe fail MOT not sure
