Bloody hell, mine took about 10 days. But I only got the boot handle as had already wrapped the front.



There is a few in my build thread of mine...

Unbelievably mean car man

Having the 280 pre facelift I’m obviously running something a bit less “mean”.

I’m going to get a splitter for the front and wrap the badge to see how it looks.

There’s days I think the black would look great and others where I think the chrome is so subtle but beautiful.

Both completely standard 280/290 vs facelift 300/290 I feel the Pre facelift in my eyes is much meaner looking. Check out my precious 280...

...but I’m lucky to have the Carbon edition and a few other tweaks to make the front end more aggressive.

Waow, the colour coding with the splitter/skirts looks awesome in the white.

I think yours is the most aggressive one I’ve seen, I actually really like the smooth clean looking but can’t help but change things.

Do you have any photos of the paddles actually fitted?
Yep I’m currently on house chores duty,when I stop dying in this heat I’ll get some up.

They look and feel great, glad I got some

Had my car for 2 years and since joining this kept coming up so I thought get some and see :)

Tested on my FR ready for my Cupra !!

Great day - not :( tried to get a dent out of my door which some nice person left me at work on friday - unsuccesfully using the pdr kit off amazon- guess i'll spend another £60 - £80 on a dent guy to sort it and hope nice person at work doesn't do it again

Why can't people respect others cars and be more careful?

Sorry to be pedantic but these paddles definitely fit a 2019 Leon Cupra yes?
Yes i believe so and have a pair for my MY20 Cupra.

To put your mind at rest below is photo of the back so you can double check the shape.I don’t think the paddles have ever changed as these apparently fit most models from 2012 onwards and includes others like Audi and Skoda.

I know. People just don't care. I've got a deep scratch in my passenger side door handle where someone has caught it with something while parked and I've only had the car a month.

With my car being a 3 door with long doors and in grey the dent stands out so much more than if it was a white car.
I removed the door trim to see if i could push it out from behind but there was a brace behind covering it :(
Guess PDR guy will have to knock it from the front - last guy who did this on a previous car left scratches all over the panel as he positioned his board on the paintwork instead of the glass and kept wiping the area with a rag he kept putting on the ground!!!!! won't be using him this time
