Cheers guys, I've had a load of stuff arrive over the last few days, some of it is wrong and is going back for modification before it's completely ready.

Got a new BMC Cone filter to replace the Jetex one, only reason being that it's red and matches the black and red theme I'm going for. So I've now got an almost brand new Jetex filter for sale if anyone's interested!

Documents finally arrived today aswell so I've just finished fitting my private plate, no skin left on my fingers from rubbing off old double sided tape!! [:@]

Hopefully this weekend I'll get time to do a service and fit some of the goodies that have arrived recently!!

Just to tease....

Go on give us a clue with the wheels

Once they're back from the manufacturer being altered all will be revealed...

They're away back on Monday coming so should hopefully be sorted and back for Thursday :)

Then it'll hopefully get a long over due clean, and some proper photos, I really must apologize for the photos in this thread, you would never believe I studied photography for three years and have camera equipment that cost more than my car!
 
RDS from this forum did a guide on how to colour (dye) the Jetx filter to match, just in case you prefer to performance of the Jetex in the long run. Those rims look like they'll fit the arches very nicely. Looking forward to the reveal next week!

Fair enough mate, can't wait to see what they look like.

Can't beat a good SLR camera. I always get my mate to take photos of my car with his as its imense :D
 
Well the Leon has been getting a wee treat over the last few days

Out with the old...

Timing Belt & Tensioner, Water Pump, Aux Belt & Tensioner, with Alternator Pulley plus Thermostat and new coolant. Also done a full service, all filters, oil, plugs and fitted the TFSI coil packs I've had sitting for a while. I'd not been looking forward to doing the belts to be honest but it wasn't really a difficult job, just quite tight for space.

Fitted the Forge hoses I bought down at Ultimate Dubs, no pictures yet as the bay is still not presentable! On the plus side though I found a big split in the boost hose coming straight off the turbo so that's probably been responsible for the problems I've been having lately and making it feel down on power!

More to follow!
 
So after the servicing was all done I finally got to properly fitting the new wheels, and gave it a wash, which was long overdue. Went out for a wee photoshoot after washing it this afternoon so I'll just let the pictures do the talking! Apologies to anyone still with dial-up!!

Lovely car and awesome progress mate

Have you still got your pipercross or Jetex filter and heat shield for sale?
 
Nice thread mate. And very nice wheels I'm sure there the same I had on my scooby. Love them wheels! It would be a toss up between them and bbs ch's if I changed mine
 
Cheers lads! They're Rota Gravel wheels in 18x8J you could be right as they are Subaru fitment, however I now own the only 10 of these wheels that exist in this colour and fitment (long story don't ask lol) I will likely have one set for sale soon.

I had CH's on the Bora and ever since then I've gone off them, that said though, we fitted my old ch's to, and lowered my brother's mates golf and it looks awesome!

Tom - Pipercross filter and Neuspeed heatshield are still available - £40 posted for them both; if you're interested drop me a PM.
