Small update 
Well it has got to the point where I can no longer lower the car anymore lol, simply coz it is right down all round lol. Just need to get some spacers and it will look amazing, that's what my friend said anyway lol. I have made a list of what else I need/want to do on the car.
-respray front bumper as it wasn't done very well before
-cupra or seat sport rear bumper
-seat sport side skirts
-seat sport spoiler
-lamin-x headlights, fog lights and tail lights, probably dark smoke
-spacers all round, possibly 30mm
-custom exhaust to fit into the new rear bumper
-tint the front windows slightly
-wire in the fog lights
-new front and rear badges professionally resprayed.
I'm hoping that in 18-20months time that list will be either a lot shorter or complete
Then to start the interior
In three years time there is going to be a big change to the car, hopefully it will be a one off! But will keep quiet about the details as I don't want anyone to do it before me lol.

Big change could only be a engine swap surely?!?!
Unless your thinking air ride but thats already been done...
I wanna see pics of it all the way down, hows the ride on the joms, was tempted by them myself but only gonna have the car another year if that.

Im keeping quiet with the details as I don't want it done before I do it lol. 3 years gives me enough time to save up as well
I have a pic of the back all the way down next to a 5dr mk5, will post it up in a sec, not sure if it has settled fully yet so will get proper pics of it all the way down next weekend. I think it's nearly 80mm on the front and possible 85 on the back
Ah, the old "park it next to a standard model and see how much better your car looks now you've tinkered with it" routine.
glad i'm not the only one!
Well it isn't the best job lol, bit of over spray and a finger print where my dad decided to see if it was dry lol.
I'm thinking 30mm each wheel lol

Haha, in my defence I came back to find it parked next to me lol
Haha, how did you know lol. Haha I live near someone else on here who has just got a mk1 leon cupra with 18" black and red alloys and lowered on h&r I think.

Its even better when you park next to the same colour
30mm each wheel?!
Thats pretty mental. There was a guy on here who had a white boc with red wheels (phil_monk?) he had 15mm on the rear or front i believe and was far enough IMO.

Well I haven't measured how far out I could go. It was a mate who said to go 30mm do I assumed he meant each wheel, maybe he meant each axel
Thought that's what his name was lol. Yeah when he moved in he had a gold civic coupe. Looked wicked
then it disappeared and a few weeks later the Leon appeared lol
Haha would be better if it was a black 3dr. I have been looking for one since I dropped it all the way. When I got the car I saw loads of black 3drs but when I want to find one parked up it's impossible lol
