looks fairly decent, if i was you i would be looking on other lcr threads and see what people had put on theirs in the way of filters, i know a few people go for the green cotton pannel filters and also drill and smooth their airboxes!

Got my new tyres fitted today thanks to SG Petch :) They were out of shape when i bought the car so they replaced all 4 tyres!

Kumho Ecsta's . . . Not my first choice of tyre, but im not going to complain for nothing :D

No more bumpy/noisy ride now :)

Might have a crack at de-badging today if i can be bothered later on . . . Seen another guys thread the other day and he had put cupra across the back, like the new leon/ibiza and it looked smart, so might do that some point!

Mate, dont pay £160 for a air filter :ban:

Just get a large open cone filter from Jetex or Green Filters for £50-80....

A Forge TIP and open cone filter makes for a great spool up sound :D

agreed, dont waste the money on 160 air filter, green cotton or jetex as above, then money left over funds for FMIC doyle!

Ordered 6k Hids tonight, need to order some l.e.d sidelights aswell . . .

Cone filter is out of stock until next week, so a little disappointed about that but i dont mind waiting a little longer :D

Private Plate and Pictures

Finally got chance to give her a good clean since the snow seems to be clearing up nicely :)

Swapped my private plate over from my corsa and got that on aswell ....

Hids should be here sometime soon and hopefully induction kit will turn up this week!

Then it will be small front plate and T.I.P :)
