Hello... ive just bought a leon cupra T (pre-facelift) and im now considering getting the facelift bodykit installed... I have read somewhere on here this can be done. has anybody done it? Is it a good idea? And if anybody has some spare parts to sell please PM me... :)

Thanks very much

If you want to avoid the dealer prices, ebay is your only option. Prices vary between £60 to £150 , as an example I paid £100 for a front facelift bumper with a small easily repairable dent and scuff, and £67 for the rear with similar damage.

Side skirts are another story, not easy to come by and a dealer will charge you £150-200
 
Tell me about it - Seat have quoted me 900 for the lot... ebay prices sound much better - but they are pretty thin on the ground to find rrrr
 
Wouldn't consider an after-market kit?

It'd be cheaper and more unique. There are some tasteful ones around....
 
Watch for a guy called bumperbumperbumpers he does refurbed panels at a fairly resonable price you'll need to get it sprayed tho'

He hasn't had any leon bumpers for a while tho'
 
I would say just keep an eye out on ebay. They WILL pop up! When i was after front and back i just waited till one came up on ebay and then i emailed the seller to ask if they would do buy now as i kept missing out on them.
 
hello there
i have the fitting kit. i know i have the wheel arch extensions spare but ill have a look and see if i still got the guides.
 
thanks for all the replies... As i still search ebay and salvage sites, i went to a body shop this pm and asked them how much fitting it would cost (i dont trust my own abilites to be honest)...

They reckon to strip and fit the front/rear bumper and skirts is around £160. Preping everything will cost around £100. Painting the bumpers £112 each and the skirts £56. Colour matching the mouldings on the side £40.

The paint and materials is £166.
Bascially the whole thing would cost nearly 800 before vat... does this sound about right?

Sorry to ask more questions :)
