Not set one up yet but really need to!! Had the painting done last week, but been too busy to get any snaps of it! Cleaned it this evening so plan on taking pictures of the car tomorrow when it's light. Reckon it needs some more red inside so definitely going to copy your dash too lol.

Some interesting mods, especially the snow effect roof, deffo makes the car look unique !
Also wanted to ask about STP Ravi, how does that work?

thanks for the kind words guys, makes the work worthwhile :)

I have already copied the red interior lights mate, but like you've mentioned they aren't too practical lol. Is it a spray for the dash or a wrap?
for the dash i went down the local B&Q and got a plastikote plastic primer and a plastikote gloss red. If you wanna go all out i would install some red LED strips into the footwells ;)

totally agree with you mate very marmite mod, got it off ebay mate it was used but to be honest the price i paid i couldve got a new one really. generally about £40ish off the bay just search "seat leon bonnet bra"

thanks mate :) ive never really been one to not stand out haha hopefully i'll have a bit more soon lol
as for the STP chemically im not too sure how it works lol i guess its a very mild acid or cleaning compound. Basically you fill up your tank until the click then pour a bottle of the stuff in there, you get different types though. e.g. on mine i used injector cleaner to get rid of some smoke (helps MPG too) but you also get fuel system cleaner. All of them i think increase MPG but best to check the bottle before you buy :) the injector cleaner was about £5 but you can also get full fuel system cleaner for like £20

Ive just had a thought mate, the bras do damage your paint due to moisture and gitty bits getting behind it BUT im getting that section wrapped then the bra can be permanant

Washed and waxed it today and i put the bumper on properly. Anyone looking to do it i found if you put the guides on the bumper first then the whole thing on the car its much easier!! I fixed the N/S front door seal to AND swapped the sidelights to a set of superbright ones from the interior :)
