Standard lights were crap. I don't see how whether they were fitted at factory or aftermarket makes any difference to the way they look?

Cheers all :)

Because the majority of the factory ones are projector, so the beam is slightly different. I love the car by the way! I'd love something but I wouldn't be able to afford fuel haha! Just curious what mpg do you get?

Ah right I see.

I used to get around 18-22mpg, but since the tune up and the new exhausts its around 13 on the way to work, which is only around 11 miles. On a long run it can cruise at 27-28 but thats boring :)

The Leon can do from hard driving 15 to economy at 30mpg, and the Mrs car will do +43 all day long, so it depends on my driving mood as to how fuel efficient I wanna be lol

Few little updates for those that are still here that knew me from before, and of course those that just like a bit of American Muscle :D

Since the new exhausts went on I've been tinkering. Have sprayed up rocker covers, MAF housing and throttle body. Fitted some ROUSH strut tower caps, a new Android based double din stereo complete with reversing camera,....some new big brakes (being refurbed...)

So here she is...

I dropped the car and various boxes off early last week. The Wife and I went away this past weekend, and on our way home on Monday got a call to say car was ready.

Yesterday I took the afternoon off work and went to collect the Musty with my Dad.

I felt more nervous than the day I collected her stock! Like a baby girl on the throttle I was gentle to start with but was re-assured by the chap who fitted it and I came back to confident! Needless to say its a blast!

The drive home was amazing and I am over the bloody supercharged moon.

The tune needs tweaking, but I was advised this would be required when I recieved the initial S/C tune. Data logging this weekend!


Here's a couple of pics, but more of them and video are bound to appear over the next few days.
