Finally got my leon!!!

Well today was the day!! my corsa left my run way,and my leon took its place... UPDATE on page 4!!!
well heres some info for you all... its a 1.9tdi 110 se,done 76k,had the cambelt changed at 70k...its got a few problems,the glove box is broke,the 6 cd changer doesnt completely work and theres a couple of scratches etc but this has to be expected from a 2002 51reg

anyway heres some pics guys so tell me what you think and give me some ideas of what i can do to it for xmas

Looking good mate! Nice and clean!

If you can afford it, get a remap! I'm dying to get one for mine, but just can't afford it at the moment! Apparently makes a huge difference to the tdi engine.

Also, look into colour coding the bump strips, as I always think that they just seem to really stand out and look out of place on a silver car!

Awesome mate!! Bet you cant wait to start the tinkering! Looks clean and tidy mate, those little bits arent too important!

Thumbs up from me!!

nice mate.....get some aero wipers for xmas, looks alot cleaner than those big ass things, maybe a new style rear wiper also, looks at things like the teardrop mirrors, what about an HID xenon conversion

 

[hoggy90]

first things on my list are as follows mate - new cd player, new wiper blades(any recommendations for front and rear?)then my new rims(possibly 18's), gloss black roof respray,gloss black mirrors and gloss black bumper grills

any other ideas?

ah so your a photoshop enthusiast lol
a dont know if i should do it mate....what do you think?

 

[ScottHmk4]

looks sweet, i personally would get cupra kit but its upto you, wee bit costly, try scrappies like alerdice in Auchinlech, ive got lucky from there a few times for parts, defo colour code, i like the black roof but if ur gonna pauint your mirrors , get the tear drop ones, those square things are hidious imo,

aye am sourcing cupra parts the now from a place in dumfries mate as alerdices has **** all! lol but im gettin the front and rear bumpers and the seats
and ano the square mirrors are a joke lol al need to source some of the curved ones

 

[ScottHmk4]

how much u paying for the bumpers?

 

[hoggy90]

60 quid each but their in metallic blue

 

[ScottHmk4]

thats a superb buy tho, with all grills i assume? go for it bud, simon takes about £100 per bumper for painting, to give u a rough idea, what wheels u going for?
