BubbelBoys MK2 Cupra BanBrännare

[BubbleBoy]

Hi all!

This was after the first wash when I bought the Cupra in May 2009.

Shortly afterwards I decided to go for a japanese carbon backbox becaus the exhauts was blowing in a very crappy way!

Shortly after it was mounted it seemed to big for the little beeza
Also it continued to constantly fall off the car

So after a little while I gave it to one of my mates (Saab 900 2.0 turbo)

When I First bought the beeza it was pretty rusty, so I went for a new trunk!

The Old one!

The new one!

Had the rear wing repainted at the same time aswell

With that done I had the car in for a change of the timing belt and oil change.
When I got it back i fitted it with a K&N panel filter

After that I thought it was time to do something about the interior, so I ordered an OMP steeringwheel and an OMP gearknob. And also some of mom's help stitching a piece of red fabric for the gearlever.
At the same time I also started to strip the car of the stereo and speakers.

Some red paint here as well

When I first bought the car the rims where looking horrid. Although I love the look of the standard ronals, so i decided to give them some refurbish.

Primed

you can also glimpse some of the 550cc monster go-kart

When the refurbish was done I bought a set of Hankook Ventus S1 evo (195/40/16) and fitted them to the ronals.
Also I went to the SEAT dealer to get my self a new set of center hubcaps, fitted perfectly

Had to put some Ronal stickers on!

After this it was time to change the exhauts to a 2½" catback system with a highflow backbox from Simons Performance Exhaustsystems.
At the same time I decided it was time to change the brakediscs and brake pads.

When I got the car back I went to order some omp strutbraces from trendab.se
And also a hosekit from Venair

After the fitting of the rear strutbrace, also i stipped it further more

After fitting the rear strutbrace I decided to order a Pipercross inductionkit togheter with
a nice cold air feed kit.

Some red paint here too

Thanks mate! Yeah, I have the headlight washer jets, thinking of getting rid of them tho, the bottle holds 4,8 liters

Was a long long time since I updated so I thought it was about time to do that

My mate drilling for the front strut brace

Coilover time!

Rear done!

Front next!

Done!

Some more work have got into the enginebay

With the coils sat at the lowest both at the front and the rear the car sat much higher at the front witch botherd me alot! :S

New topmounts sorted that out

Now I am going to suck my teeth into the interior!

Thinking of getting these some refurbish, BMW cross spoke 15x7" offset 25
and run them as street wheels
