No way! One of my fave Leons on here. What's next mate?

Really?! after money for a house now. Hate living in my 3rd floor flat. Shame tho as I love my car but family come first. Will be getting a cheapo car first then hopefully at the end of the year a skyline 350gt :)

Im not sure whether to keep the fuel flap wrap on, but its something different..

Its all practise before I attempt to do the front scuttle panel on the bonnet...

Just a photo of the car now I've adjusted the coil overs, it sits a lot better than it did before, apologies about the awful wheels and the very dirty paintwork!

Dig the badges and the pillars mate, on my to do list. Not sure about the mirror covers or fuel flap though, but it's your car man!

Interested in how your scuttle panel looks, been considering that for a while, along with the rear valance.

I mite leave the fuel flap covered for a bit, i like being different..i must admit im not that keen on it either but mite leave it to see if it grows on me..

the pillars took about 20/25 mins each mirrors took about 30 mins each as there quite tricky to get to fit back on as you have to cut the wrap right back on the inside, front and back badges were a RIGHT pain getting the wrap into the badge recesses...yet the fuel flap which with being round i expected to be tricky took 10mins..

i recon the scuttle panel would take me around 3hrs as its a big piece to do + not a straight forward shape to wrap.I recon i could do it but i'd have to take my time over the curves..

is the scuttle easy to get off?

Scuttle is yeah. There's bolts and clips under the bonnet insulation.

The washer jets are part of it too so watch out for that.

Damn forgot about that, well ok mayb 4hrs then, do the washer jets come out and leave a hole or do they stay in when you take scuttle out?
