My 2008 FR

[DarrenAnthony]

Had my FR for almost a year now.
Started out completely standard.

Since getting it I've done a few mods.

Honeycomb grille
Maxton Front Splitter
Rear LEON Lettering Removed
Heko Wind Deflectors
RDX Rear Diffuser
LED sidelights
Smoked Side Repeaters
FK Adjustable Coilovers
Cupra 18" Alloys
Mirrors & A Pillars wrapped
KillAllWipers Rear Wiper Delete
Interior Door Handles wrapped
Pioneer Double Din Stereo
Ramair Induction Kit
Custom Exhaust With 4" Oval Tailpipe
3" Decat
Revo Stage 2 Map

Still have a few more bits and pieces to do to it.
But first, I need to sort the boost leak, which should be getting done on Wednesday and then off for it's MOT after that.

That's very pretty, get another tail end shot, I wanna see how well the exhaust looks with the diffuser. You also need centre caps lol. Nice job bro

 

[DarrenAnthony]

Thanks man
Yeah, currently trying to sort the centre caps for it.

I think my head would fit up that poo shoot lol

Car looks awesome! I had me a black FR TFSI a while back and loved it! Then a company car came along...

The hints of red are spot on.

Nice mate, that looks real well. I had one of these a while back, and instead of losing the rear wiper, I swapped it for a MK5 Golf rear wiper. It's sort of a half wiper arm and an aero flat blade. Although they look good without them. Nice mate, I really like that.

Wheels now have centre caps which looks a whole lot better now.
Thanks to ergrgrtgdrgr on here for sorting me out with them.

Next on the agenda... off to C1R tomorrow to have the boost leak fixed.
Then it's MOT time and after that I need to get the annoying bit of lacquer peel sorted on my rear door.

Just a small update today.
Decided to paint the rear badge black. Definitely improves the look of the rear.

 

[DarrenAnthony]

Rear spoiler arrived today. Was going to fit it this afternoon till I realised I didn't have enough Tiger seal. So I've ordered a new tube and will fit it tomorrow.

 

[DarrenAnthony]

Spoiler is in place. Just need the Tiger Seal to harden now. And yes, the car needs a damn good wash too.

 

[DarrenAnthony]

All fixed on solid now. Definitely time for a clean tomorrow, though!

Your making me miss my black Fr. What power you running?

 

[DarrenAnthony]

Don't get missing it too much. You have an awesome car with that Cupra!
Running around 270 on Revo Stage 2. Going to try and avoid any more engine mods though (apart from maybe an uprated DV) as it's supposed to be my daily runaround ha ha!

Haha. Cheers. If I could've afforded it i'd have both. Lol. Yeah, mines my daily car. I don't think I could make the suspension any harder. I'm constantly on the look out for potholes to avoid.

That looks really nice

 

[DarrenAnthony]

Not a big update. But gave it a good clean inside and out and a polish/wax. Then took it to Trax at Silverstone yesterday.
Starting to feel that I want some BTCC sideskirts, maybe. Also might lower it just a tiny bit more.

Did noone want to park next to you? LOL. Looks ace, miss my black FR+... still.

It does look a bit lonely lol. We were there really early to avoid the huge queues that end up out onto the main dual carriageway. It was even still quite dark when we first arrived!
