Aero kit for facelift Cupra

[jack rush]

Has anyone installed the aero bumper / exhaust tips on their facelift Cupra?

I always see FRs with the aero kit on Instagram, and the back end looks way better than the standard cupra read end.

The bumper is available on Horton Seat, but allegedly not compatible with the Cupra. Not sure how true that is because I was under the assumption they were interchangeable?

Anyone that's done it, please chip in and share your experiences or any pictures!

The exhaust positioning is slightly different, and smaller, so that will be why it’s down as not fitting. So you’d need the exhaust too.

Hadn't thought about the exhaust position.

I guess that takes it from a £400-500 job to considerably more expensive.

Shame, since I really like the look of the bumper, but don't want to spend a fortune on it since it's a lease and will be going back in a few years, so would have to spend more putting it back to stock. Not as straight forward as a straight swap on the bumper.

Not the best images, but shows how the Cupra's system is further spaced.

However if you could get your hands on a Golf GTi exhaust/Cupra R system, I'd expect that to be a better match...

Yeah I see what you mean.

I'll have a look on eBay to see if there are any gti exhaust systems going.

Cheers Damo - helpful as always.
