You should have left the Cupra bumpers on as they are defo nicer ;)
 
Oh, wouldn't you just drill 2 holes and feed them through? Only asking because I'm unsure?

Could have put them on, but disconnected the supply of water/methanol to them, but I figured that since I'm not going be using them, then no need to cut the bumper for that.
 
I am going to have to against the grain here and say that I liked the look of the car before any of the changes were made. I think my biggest issue is with the wheels, to me they just don't look right. Sorry :(
 
this car is growing on me more and more, i think it may be the nicest one i have seen now...

I know you have liked mine for a while min! Pleased you think its the nicest one though :D

****in hell, every ****ing thread where someone has a k1/btcc...... you really are doing my tits in now :)


on a side note... whats the tyre sizes on these 19s? dont look like the usual 235s
 
the wheels are the muts nuts , might have to get some for mine , what they weigh?
that car would look perfect if it was the right colour ........................

yes yellow :p but red looks a good second best lol
 
8.5 J's and no rubbing?

Possible to get 245's on the car with modest lowering?

Lol..i do sometimes wish i could have gotten a yellow, but there werent any availabe when I got mine

Dunno about the exact weight - they feel slightly heavier than the standard rim and tyre

Nope..no rubbing, but that's probably because the suspension is quite hard. The 235's are very close to the arches. You could probably get away with 245 if you have a higher ET on the wheel - perhaps 48 and a hard suspension

... on my Cupra R with chassis KW II Inox (hard set) I have BBS CH-R 8.5x19, ET 48, tyre 235/35/19 Bridgestone Potenza RE055A and on front are problem with arch-liner sometimes.

Size 8.5x19 ET 43 in front is best for reduction, rear 8.5x19 ET 40 by both with tyries 235/35/R19, my opinion.
