thanks for nice comments......its appreciated

re the lowering well, i did worry that sportlines would be too low.... and would cause me loads of probs with the many speed bumps around here, but so far been over several different types at the sensible speed and it clears...and yes the car does look loads better, the 18" now fill the arches lovely, the front is about 10mm lower than rear, looks good. intended to get some pics last weekend but too much work on, playing with my lads corsa arctic....lol

will get some taken and upload soon

oh and the revo stage 1 thats now on, provides another kick.....surprised a few boy racers who tried it on .... lol

few more things, minor too do, reg plates need changin and was thinking or 15mm spacers to push out filling arches even more, not sure we shall see.

this is all therapy and part of my second childhood...........lol

nice looking car mate i like the colour im thinking of getting my roof vinyl wrapped what are the costs for this?:D

as i had various bits wrapped didnt get a detailed breakdown but this was around £160

and if i had choice again ...... yup would have it done.

be careful on your choice certain finishes will highlight paint blips more that others......satin back so far is soooooo easy to clean and contrasts great with gloss paint.

if weather holds and time allows this weekend will be uploading some more pics as car looks even better now lowered on sportlines.

love the contrast between satin black and the blue paintwork. really work well together. Plus thinking about doing the same as yourself with the tinting and wrapping. Respect

well more money just spent.....

two bridgestones on front wearing a bit close, so off they come and because of lowering got a four wheel alignment done (apparently readout showed they werent too far off but i can feel hell of difference on the drive and under heavy brake) and two uniroyal rainsport 2 on the front......lovely tread but they dont have the nice lip as the bridgestones, protecting the alloys.... just need to watch kerb more...lol

also the vibration at 80-85 mph was due to nearside wheel being slightly buckled, so now moved to back, and steering is now rock steady that is until the next big pothole is hit.

and i will get some more pics done.......just finding the time..........as it looks much better lower to the floor.

I think the aero on the back looks nice, and the matt-like finish on top looks good too.

Did you say the interior is leather? I know you can get it as an after sales thing with Seat and the LCR has the quilted interior, do they do it as an option to buy as well? I'd love to see some pics of it.

Car looks ace mate.
