Cruised down to Gatwick and back earlier to pick up my parents from the airport.

Lovely summer's evening drive down. Didn't even feel the need to boot it, just enjoyed some torque when necessary :D

Really happy with the car right now.

Tomorrow, hopefully booking in my alloys for refurb and colour change :D

Rugeley, Staffs
Fitted the stainless engineering heatshield off ebay, really nice fit and looks good...
also fitted front mudflaps which were from an ibiza 99>, took the metal bracket off and screwed them to the arch with the origonal screws....
Look good and subtle.... ;)

Also if anyone else has bird s*** blemishes on their black Leon which they cant get off with polish, t-cut etc, i'd recommend Meguiars Scratch X....
Cant believe how good this stuff is. Worked it over the blemish for 5 mins and it totally disappered. Magic.....................:blink:

Hi t0m its a toyo sport front mount..

What colour did you choose for your wheels?

Cool, it looks huge and pretty awesome :)

Gone for a colour of theirs called 'Carswet or Cars Wet' lol, it looks the dogs against platinum. We put an Enkei rim that was similar to a Comp Mo' against the car and it just looked right!

It'll be done by the weekend, so keep your eye on the RR for pics of how it looks come Sunday or so.

Yeah only hear good things about Toyo kits on here. I've got the TX one but I want the Forge Big Race jobbie one day. It'll fit alot better and it'll be about time to move on from mine once I've saved for the Forge :lol:

The Forge crash bar is £140 alone!

Cheers bud I hope they look good once back :)

Haha, mine too. All in good time though. I've got alot of the major stuff done now, so I'm just picking off mod after mod as each month comes along. Should be done by the end of the year... :)

Thanks mate. It was recently detailed by Rob my neighbour at his place of work http://supercardetailing.com/ - and I think he used a Megs metal polish. I previously was using Autosol, a cloth and alot of grafting by me lol.

I'm loving your roof and mirrors they look sweet.
