This is gonna be one phat ass Leon

(Excuse the dust and compound/ still needs a good going over and waxed)

The alloys are going on Monday to get the insides lathed 15mm. Then the polishing will begin.

Re-painted the drivers side today, wasn't happy with the drivers front door it was a bit shady.

In basecoat - (I don't like messing about when clearing as I hate dirt and dust in the clear)

Stay tuned! More progress tomorrow whilst am missing dubshed

Any opinions on what colour to do the callipers?

 

[Seal_LCR]

Orange! Bright orange!!!

 

[Kingscote]

Porshe calliper yellow

 

[M20FES]

If the wheels are purple, then yellow would suit or maybe cream, but will be a bugger to keep clean

 

[Seal_LCR]

Oh if the wheels are purple maybe green??

 

[Seal_LCR]

Or body coloured

I was actually thinking st orange from the start but I have changed my mind. Looking to do something that won't 'cheapen' the look of the car.

My wheels are going silver. I bought AMG alloys. The borbets are my mates.

Inside the door is a plastic grommet, inside is t20 screw, slowly unwind the screw and pull the small section of the door handle out and it will pull out, unhook the handle operation cable and unhook the door handle.

Done

If they are silver then I would go red like a cupra r or go wild and have green or orange!

A teaser picture on standard alloys. Should have it buffed and wax'd tomorrow and all the windows in and doors lined up ready for a soapy wash

Standard font plates? Would look a lot less erm chavvy?

Else, the colour looks good.
