Ive noticed Seat charge silly prices for bits of plastic aha

Their prices are wierd. Parts that are commonly replaced tend to be very expensive even though the cost to make them is peanuts. Nobody replaces the sill trims often so they are only a tenner!

Youd think they would be sensibly priced so people kept buying them!!

Not had the car out on a good run yet but it certainly feels like it revs a bit more freely that before! Not going to be any sort of power gains just feels better going through the revs.

Adam you may just have swayed me there with them pictures lol:) that looks amazing!! Will be looking into a cost of getting this done, Also going to look into wrapping it carbon fibre as Lawrie mentioned aswell. What is smoothing the airbox though?
