[Clone]

Very nice indeed, i think i want my wheels a simmilar colour!

Looks great! Loving the lowered look and the wheels! How did you get on with the lowering springs? Any problems with the shocks? I am thinking of getting springs for a small drop in height. Do you still have the springs and would you be interested in selling them if you do?

Im gonna hold on to the old suspension as a back up I think lol. As far as the height im not sure how much lower it is as I didnt measure it I just went for a height that looked good and handled well.

No problems with the springs on standard dampers then? I guess the Cupra has stiffer dampers anyway! I have an FR and looking at lowering it slightly on springs only. Is the ride with coilovers very harsh (as I do lots of miles)?

likeing that mate .. why did i sell my fr :'(

 

[richardcupra]

The ride is fin, only notice being bumpy going slow over an uneven road but apart from that no complaints at all. Next on the shopping list is rear arb, Miltek downpipe and revo stage 2 to make good use of the bits ive added.

Very Nice - looks well lowered!

Nice...looks about the same as I want mine lowered by. Which mud flaps do you have? According to Seat, their ones don't fit the Cupra.

 

[Nath.]

The OEM mud flaps will fit with a little cutting and some extra screws into the wheel arch liner.

Got mine from a forum member, thanks mate whoever you were.

Might have to get me some front ones. I get so much dirt down the sides of the doors!

 

[trivium2k7]

I am the same mate. I only have back mud flaps at the moment, nightmare keeping sides clean because of it lol!

 

[richardcupra]

I only have front mudflaps at the minute, never tried modding the standard rear ones. ~Might be worth a shot.

Figure wise Im not sure so it only be guessing power but I will get it RR'd when i get the stage 2 done.

Tbh I think the splitter on the front could've been done better....and it's a tad too low for my liking - but the rest looks spot on! Really tidy example and the yellow really suits it!

 

[Craigus]

Looks very smart that, yellow and the darker wheels go ace!!

 

[richardcupra]

Cheers Think ill save up cash for a few months and then get some more bits done.
