Quick update...I've fitted my dogbone mount this morning. Cant believe how much vibration you get through the car in 1st and 2nd. Guess you get used to it :)

Did you torque it up correctly? Some get more than others, i thought mine was terrible, but as you said, you get used to it. Just have to launch it a few revs higher ;)

Yeah all torque'd up correctly mate. Can't launch higher mate theres 4 speed bumps in 100 yards getting in and out of my house although they're not speed bumps they're raised bricks! lol

Just been reading through this thread. Car looks great in those last few pictures. Its good to see other pre-facelift cupras.

Cheers for the comments. :)
To be honest mate i don't really like the pre-facelift bumper I'm gonna be on the lookout for a facelift front bumper after not to long just want to do some other bits first. ;)

Well i popped over and saw Phillc today, had a look around the car and got some ideas. :)

I am now on a little mission to get some spacers for the rear wheels, I can't believe how much it improves the stance of the car! Watch this space

I picked up my spacers today courtesy of a fellow forum member. I'll get some pics up later.

Here's a cheeky snap I got earlier :)
