Looks nice mate.

When you say got it back in May? What happened?

How do you find the Evoms, Loud??

 

[ste-lfc]

Very nice mate,i like the cupra decal on the front bumper.......

 

[DaveysFR]

Cheers for the comments lads

Carr20vt,

Lol I mean I bought the car in May. I owned a 2007 FR TDI in red for 2 years prior to getting this one. I would thoroughly recommend the EVOMS intake, great fit and quality is excellent. The noise is the best part, sounds like Darth Vader when under acceleration and when giving it the beans, you get wastegate chatter on throttle lift off like a WRC car lol. I got mine from JKM motorsport, comes with a heatshield for the intake pipe. Ill take a pic tonight and post it into this thread tomorrow if you want?

ste-lfc,

The decal on the front bumper can be bought from a company called the Vinylstore. I thing they are sponsors of the forum??? Anyway I got the 150mm long sticker but they come in different lenghts and colours.

Search google for 'The Vinylstore' and you will find them. Not bad priced either, I can't remeber the exact price but it was less just over £5 I think postage included.

No its ok mate cheers. I did have one but swapped to the Dbilas as i found the noise a bit intrusive. But hey now a find the db slightly reserved in comparison.

What's next??

I'm not too sure what to do next TBH was thinking of getting a Milltek Cat back next as the car is warrented to next May and I don't want too much grief so I will take the cat out after the warranty is up.

Either that or Im debating refurbing the wheels in gloss black and adding a gloss black vinyl roof.

The kid in me wishes I had a decepticon logo on my car but the missus would laugh me out of the house...

Can see what you are saying but you shouldn't have any issues with Milltek and warranty and with your mods ie remap and intake the dp and sports cat would make one hell of a difference!

 

[DaveysFR]

GainfulShrimp,

Go for it! its only a sticker put it on and if you get abuse bin it. Best of all £3.50 all in for 2x Decepticon and 2x Autobot logos of ebay and a UK seller

Im 26 and get the odd bit of abuse about them but I like them and will be bored of them some day and remove them again.

 

[leon_in_uk]

nice, i was gonna get a yellow one. only someone on here got it before me. ha - where you get the black cupra badge at the front from? want something like that myself! so other cars know to be scared!

 

[DaveysFR]

leon_in_uk,

Hi mate, who got it before you did? I got them from 'The Vinylstore' just google that name and it will be the first link mate.

 

[leon_in_uk]

I was after a yellow one, someone on here beat me to it though. Thanks for the link, will look on google.

What mud flaps have you fitted to the front?

 

[DaveysFR]

djhorace,

I sourced them from a local rally spares shop mate, they were just listed as rally mudflaps £5 each.

Great job they are, I have them held on with wee self tappers into the plastic arch liner and I used the screws that secure the sideskirts also.

The top of the mudflap is held on with a self tapper. I had to drill a hole in the wing to get it to fit but I covered the screw in copper grease and I reguarly re-apply it to prevent rusting taking place. It worked on my old FR for two winters and no rust so It seems to work fine.

 

[Al]

I was going to buy some for mine, but never found any i liked. Got any closer up pics of them? I am not keen on drilling in to my wing though.

 

[DaveysFR]

djhorace,

If you search for posts by me on the Mk2 Leon forum, you will find pics of them close up fitted to my Red FR TDI with the same skirts and spoiler as your own so will give you an idea mate. I will get you some better pics tonight when I get home. But try the search in the meantime.

Also, Im sure if you put some more thought into it a clip of some sort could be used to secure them such as those used for the OEM rear flaps mate.

Hope this helps.

Let me know if you need any more information.
