Progress!

ok guys so after iwashed my car and went to the meet on wednesday night she was pretty clean and i was awaiting a few parts thru the mail,

true to form society is **** and some little decided to decorate my car in tinned spaghetti whilst i was at work last night.

thankfully i only live 10mins from work (driving quickly and with a litte of that spanish passion ) so i got home about 10pm and proceeded to wash off as much as i could.

today however was much better got up went to the gym came back and to my surprise mail had arrived

so here is the effort of having to wash a car for the 3rd time in 3 days as well as fitting my new parts

So far Mods include:

Lowered around 40mm
Stubby Areial
Chrome Grill Surrounds
De-badged
Aero Wipers
Magic Tree
SCN stickers
Hidden cassette MP3 adapter

oh and i fixed my mirror adjuster as i didnt previously have one bar a metal stalk

Looks mean mate!! Loving the stance!! Front end looks the dogs with splitter and grille surrounds.. Cupra spoiler next and some cupra wheels and I'm sure you will have a real headturner there!! Keep it up dude! And don't leave it so bloody long between updates noob lmfao!!

Where/what rear wiper did you use?

I've got a 13" from wiperblades and it doesn't wipe my whole rear window, leaves a "batman" symbol Defiantly in need of a new rear wiper as I like to see out the back.

I'd love a wiper that makes a batman sign

its not for everybody all though it does break the front end up just right imo, plus another thing is you dont see that many with the chrome grills so i gured why, eh?

 

[JordanMk3]

What suspension have you got mate? It looks really good!!

 

[T_higgs89]

springs are apex youd have to ask Dan1.6 as thats who i got them from and he fitted lol shocks are standard i just need some bigger alloys but with xmas coming id sooner get some new tyres lol

 

[mark-cupra]

some good progress mate, what front aero wipers did you get? are they good ones?

Im going to have to get me some of those.. I have cupra shocks though, so do I just get 40mm springs for a chill? Suspension is confusing It looks awesome though mate.. Im jealous.. Get some cupra 'starfish' wheels mate.. Or OZ SuperT's.. And I swear.. It will look pure p0rn!! If your going for tyres, what are you after getting? For what you pay for decent Tyres, you could get some cupra wheels already wrapped in rubber..

I wouldn't just get the springs for your shocks, as they're not made for them, the strain on the shocks would be too much. You're better off buying the whole shock/spring set or coilovers

T_higgs, get yourself some G60 steels, will be good for winter and will look awesome in the right colour.
