Hi guys, just thought id say hello as im new to this forum. Im 19 , mechanic in the week and do a bit of spraying on the weekend when I can and I drive a 57 plate Seat Leon Cupra in Candy white.

I did make a long detailed guide on how to remove and repair a crack in the cupra sideskirts but i cannot post with direct links util i have posted 15 times! So forgive me in advance for posting loads today!

Look forward to meeting you all if you are all into going to shows etc.

Cheers!

Yeah youve got to treat them right dont you lol. The milltek was 450 quid off ebay which i think is a good deal. The same guy is also selling a carbonio intake for £100 and some kind of liquid crystal race gauge that fits in the air vent, but i dont really want that.

I think i will go with the revo, but that is some serious dollar! I will have to look into the hpfp gains then i guess. I also agree i could do with some 501s as my leon has xenons but gay yellow sidelights

Why the pcv valve and coil packs mate? I was toying with the idea of a forge DV.

Thanks mate, i had a black audi a3 2.0tdi quattro. I miss the four wheel drive but dont miss that damn colour lol. I would say vinyl wrapping is the future, mate!

I am quite tempted to wrap mine in white too but I kinda like the grey tbh. If I had not found this one though it would defo have been white for me.

I was going to buy a nissan 350z that came in part exchange in my work a few weeks ago. Paintwork had rust all over and i thought it would look immense in matte black!

A guy told me the other day that white is out of fashion now and told me the 'in' colour is brown !? WTF

My mate has a grey 320d and it looks very smart mate. If i didnt have white i would have grey lol

 

[jc_boc]

LOL, white is a good and easy colour as far as I am concerned and generally most of my cars have been white.

 

[Masterkm]

I wanted a colour that could do black wrapping to like roof/mirrors.. And white looks the bomb

Thinking of doing my mirrors in graphite/anthracite wrap tho..

I sprayed my wheels and mirrors gloss black and it does look awesome, as the wheels were previously done with what looked like black hammerite and the mirrors were scratched. Im toying with the idea of gloss black wrapping my roof myself :/ Not too sure, i might just pay for it to be done.

What colour are your wheels and mirrors?

 

[asasprey]

It does sound like alot, but my mate who is my age was paying £3000 on a 1.0 corsa! I can just about afford it as long as i dont get any speeding tickets, which wont be easy!
