New FR owner :)

[chriswildman]

hi everyone! my name is chris. i took delivery of my Leon FR about a month ago and so far im loving it! i had a jeep before this so the handling is way better than what im used to, and the way that the power is put down is way more responsive.
have done nothing to this car yet, however, im looking to tint the lights, maybe get some new wheels and possibly put a splitter on the front. its a leased car so i cant do a lot to it tho!

any suggestions of what to do please let me know

Welcome to the site.

Others will come back with details of what they have done but check out the Readers Rides section https://forums.seatcupra.net/index.php?forums/readers-rides-seat.229/ to see what others have done.

Also check out https://forums.seatcupra.net/index.php?threads/what-did-you-and-your-mk3-leon-do-today.379107/ and https://forums.seatcupra.net/index.php?threads/post-pics-of-your-mk3-leon-in-here.444099/

Update, this is all assuming you have the mk 3 if you have the mk 2 separate threads showing the same stuff.

Welcome to the forums. Have a look through my FR+ readers ride at your wallets peril . What year / colour did you go for?

Send a link of it? I'm still trying to work the site out haha.
And I've got a monsoon grey (I think it's called?) 18 plate. I'll post a pic once I find out how

Weird. Just noticed my signature links don't show on mobile.

Looks a lot different using Tapatalk than using a PC.

Yeah, I'm now wondering, all the people I've said check my signature. Or thought they could actually see a picture of my car. They must think I'm a loon!

 

[Deleted member 103408]

nope, PC/MAC users can see it all, its only when using the mobile app's you cant.

So 90% think we are loons (as i do it as well)

 

[chriswildman]

How do you post a pic? It's only letting me post links

Until you get to 25 posts, you can't do it through the site. You'd have to host it with eg imgur (which is free) then click the image icon and paste the url.

. Looks ace! Also, when posting if you click the image button and paste the url in the box, it embeds it. Or... choose the bbcode option from imgur.

tried that but it just said IMG oh well! just looked through your thread on your black FR, love the colour theme you went with! im debating spraying the grille surround in black and the seat badges on the front and back in red

Yeah, weird, did that when I tried it also. If you click on the image at imgur and then click bbcode you should just be able to paste that.

Cheers. My fav was having the rear valance sprayed metallic black! Haha, don't get me started again... I considered red mirror covers too.

It's because that link is to a gallery image and not to the direct image... If you right click on that picture and open image in new tab you get the .jpg link (https://i.imgur.com/lYZWu3e.jpg)

That should work in the Image icon link bit... As shown below...

Great looking car!

i hope you prepped your bank with the amount you'll spend lol

Cheers

red mirror covers would look good, my mate has a black FR exactly like yours, hes sprayed his mirror caps red and it looks great

thanks! just deciding on what to do with it now
