Well all I can say is go for it at end of the day it's your car. When I fitted my chrome mirrors nearly everyone hated, but I liked them so kept them. Just had a thought if you're going to spray the centre grills then what you doing about the lower grills in bumper
i'll probably just leave them standard, im hoping that within this year i will get an LC/LCR body kit possibly as i found them cheaper now haha

Here's an idea it gives the same sound as an induction kit but way cheaper about £35 in total

since pay day is coming up, and i have about 150£ to spend, just thought i'd ask you's for some cheap, visual mods that i could do?
im thinking about a new back box, but i have to cut a hole in the rear valence, not sure if i can commit myself that just yet! hahaha

Yeah but on any car it makes it look cleaner. The other reason I thought of it is because when you wax/polish car you can end up with was/polish going on bump strips and end up leaving white marks, also they have a tenancy to fad slightly (well they did on my old car)
ohh yea i see, sorry haha i didnt understand, yea that happened on my old megane, its a right pain but no, they're fine for the time being, nice and black

If they do fad or get wax on then lin sead oil is meant to work well to remove marks. Other than that not much else can be done to the outside of the leon. Well other than fitting face lift bumpers.
yea i really want bumpers and alloys, but unfortunately my current part time job and school wont allow! haha hopefully get a full time job this year though and then the work really starts

Fingers crossed you do mate. But no doubt you'll be keeping the car for a few years so take your time doesn't all have to be done at once. Just had an idea look into up rating brake disks and pads on the front basically handling mods. This will help make the car feel more responsive in the bends.
yea just checked them out, welll outta my budget! hahaha
i think i am just going to get the basics done for now, it's getting booked in for a new engine, new bearing and back box to be fitted, so hopefully it'll sound like a car, not a clonky orchestra!
