what did you and your mk3 leon do today

[R4CK5]

Because it's textured I'd guess that it has to be smoothed with fillers before painting? Else itd look like and orange peel I'd imagine.

That's what the paint shop did with mine.

Wasn't today but at the weekend had the pleasure of taking a good friend to the church for his wedding!

Got a nice ribbon and fake flower and attached them to the bonnet to complete the look.

I think the car looked the part!

Makes it look too much like the cheaper models without the black IMO

Picked up my Leon ST Fr, lovvveee it already. So much more refined and grown up than my Mk2 was. The difference between a 1.9tdi and 2.0tdi is night and day as well, so much smoother and quieter. Already bought a few bits for it too, boot liner, wheel nut covers, booked in for dash cam to be hardwired in and plate should be on next week!

Didn’t it come with the wheel nut covers or had they all fallen off by the time you got home?

if we were all the same life would be boring.

I always thought the Cupra and FR looked cheap with the big lump of plastic and that the cheaper models looked better, apart from the exhaust of course.

It’s 3 years old so gone walk abouts at some point.

Which wheel nut covers did you buy?

 

[Jhunter_83]

Not quite today, but this week I finally correctly fitted the metal accelerator pedal cover after it kept falling off and updated all the interior bulbs to LED. No pictures yet because it never seems to get dark atm

Just some eBay special (17mm), pack of 20 were a few quid or so. Also boot mats arrived already, albeit to the wrong address; but not bad considering I only ordered at about 2 yesterday and had free postage.

Got the air con re gassed today. First time since new (2014). The difference is like night and day. SO COLD!

So today my dad was in the car (used to be a mechanic) and I changed from 3rd to 4th with the windows open, you can really hear it from underneath and he doesn't think it's normal. Is there anyone else who has the same thing? It had a new clutch / master cylinder / thermostat housing in November last year (not even done 20,000 miles).

I hear mine all the time, most noticeable when moving into 5th and 6th

Nice box arrived today, thanks to Damian at DPM Performance

Fitted mudflaps all round today, genuine article from a SEAT dealer on eBay for £64 posted, a good reduction from RRP I believe. Easy fit without removing wheels in about 40 minutes.

Springs or the adjustable coil overs that plug in?

 

[Deleted member 103408]

Adjustable coil over that plug in and give's you the ability to adjust the damper from the phone.
