Finally had the tracking done after a long wait to find someone to do it as most garages said the car was too low:) Got the headlight beams aligned aswell as ever since i got the car the full beams and dipped beams were never quite right, seems brighter now there fully aligned tbh... FR rear bumper, cat and silencers removed from exhaust and new brake set up to come by the end of the winter hopefully:) Any ideas for brakes appreciated, was thinking EBC disks and greenstuff pads all round as had these on the last car and seemed a really good set up?

Finally got the FR/cupra rear bumper sprayed and fitted today:) Totally transforms the car and makes the back look more aggressive!! Not the greatest pics as on a phone but will get more better ones when the weather clears up:( A big thanks to Clydeview Motors in Greenock who done an outstanding job with the paintwork and for a very reasonable price i think!!

It has the same appearance but i dont think that will fit on you current exhaust due to the double exit. Personally, i'd just wait till a cupra or fr back box comes up for sale. I'm sure Laurie on here will be looking to offload his soon as he's getting a Miltek. Bumper looks good though! Now just the wheels ha ha

I had thought that:( im having a custom straight through backbox made up when i decat it though so wouldnt be issue fitting to that. Might get on to laurie about his though i hadn't thought that!! And wheels hopefully come summer time, i keep changing my mind on what i want though:p

Car looks great!
not too far away from me how do you rate clydeview mums looking for a bit of paint work!


Cheers buddy!! few wee additions should be on the way to step it up a bit:) Your probs about a 15 min drive away, Id rate clydeview very highly! Any work ive seen from them has been spot on and im extremely happy with the bumper, I know the guy that does the painting and he's been doing it for years so id give them a try:)
