Guest, 🚨New Stock alert: Premium CUPRA valve caps now available in the store 👉 Order now from the merchandise store
I want. No word of price on their site.
Have noticed on the contact us bit that all the employees seem to be females with english names although its a taiwanese company
Are you sure it was a car company and not a dodgy website you were looking at ?

They do this, the eastern countries (Taiwanese, Japanese, Chinese), when they have any association with a western country, be it over here studying, or living for a period of time, they give themselves a "european" name, for whatever reason.
My partner, when she was studying at a College, a number of Japanese friends all had english first names!
strange.Anyway, back on topic, this isn't a Cupra, is it an FR (looking at the original front bumper)?
Not at all - even on bumpy roads.
Before fitting the coilovers, that's what I thought, considering original ET is 51 with 7.5J, but then again the standard wheel sits far too much inside and the car sits way too high

Nope its a cupra. got standard cupra front bumper, and you can also see the big brakes.

So on the Leon FR and Leon Cupra, the front bumpers are exactly the same then, apart from the Cupra has the centre bottom section painted Black??
See, coming from the Mk4 Ibiza stable, the Cupra front bumper has straighter fog light sections in the front bumper - whereas on the FR they were more rounded at the top!
I naturally thought on the MK2 Leons, SEAT used this same styling difference to tell the Two (Cupra / FR) apart! Obviously not - they have got lazy on the Leon!
Sorry for the mis-understanding
- as i stated in my original post - great car.

only come with xenons , not all Cupras come with xenons as standard , they were standard up to 57 plate 08 i think iirc.
Look on the first pic with original bumper - they were there. When I fitted the K1, decided not to put the light washers back because I dont want to accidently spray methanol on the lights and bonnet. Don't really need the light washers in SA - it doesnt snow, and car gets washed once a week
Sorry for the mis-understanding
Thanks. No probs dude
