Anyway, pictures! Here it is when i picked it up
That spoiler was definitely coming off so that was my first job the first evening after work when i was home. Although it left quite a mess..
I wanted to de-wiper it and get the 'Turbo'
badge off the back so i did that in the same evening. Looks much better at the back now! Here's before and after!
I took off the headlight covers at the top of the headlights as it looked terrible IMO!
With the
help of my mate down the road with a cupra as well, we did a N249 bypass on the next evening, makes the bay look better as well and holds boost better!
I then got myself a Boost gauge as i wanted to see what boost it was running and if the boost was standard too - which it is! Temp holder
I really needed to refurb the grab handles inside too as they were terrible, so that was one job i did first as well!
Before!
After!
Here's is how it stands in the meantime, i plan to get better alloys soon. Not sure what though, might go for something different or just standard cupra wheels! Not sure yet.
I've bought a better TIP so thatll be here by the weekend and hopefully fitted, then I'm gonna get coilovers at the end of the month! Go low! I'm getting a Honda S2000 Air filter too as they're meant to be good. There's so much to do but i've gotta refurb the exterior handles and wing mirrors soon as the lacquer has come off and looks poor!
What's in the box?!
Got my S2k filter and an adapter for it as well! Also got an aux belt as the guy changed the alternator but not the belt and i got them both at an absolute bargain price! I'm looking at getting some cupra stars in grey so if i do get them they'll be put on the car and the wheels i have at the minute will be kept as winter wheels.
Next on the cards is new brakes, gauge holder and a good service which i feel is definitely needed!
Thanks for looking and i'll keep this going when more updates come along
