Thanks, and i would advise either getting it pro done or spraying it, or unless your confident :p
it was very!!!! hard to do and it isn't perfect, a few bubbles and creases in but its good enough for now.
Im looking at spraying it soon i reckon for a better finish

no its not the size really, its all the contours of the bumper lol,
may of been easier if i had the proper tools, but was quite difficult.
Cheap enough to have a go yourself really, easy enough to simply pull it off if it goes wrong.

Only around £15 for like a 5 metre roll

I've borrowed this pic from m0rk's Cupra RR thread. Although he wasn't the one who switched the headlights, it does show the extra black parts of the Mk5 Cupra headlights perfectly:

Thanks in advance to m0rk for the pic.

Think it was probably mine, I did it a month or so ago. Cupra headlights and black grille surround would really set it off! Don't like the chrome against the black

Did you paint your caliper with the wheels on or did you take them off? Just wondering it you done it carefully through the alloy spokes haha :)

Your car is looking tidy also! Well done!

Thanks :) got a few more things to do yet tho.

But i took my wheels off, not being lazy :p
i used engine paint for it, just get a wire brush clean them down to get dirt and surface rust off, use a damp cloth to clean, then simply paint :) did 2 coats on them to give a good red colour

Excuse the muddy pedals, havent cleaned the car recently thats tomorrow :)

After

I think miles better personally :)
Not bad for £35 of sere motors :p (i got them for 35 cus im good )


Taking the old clutch and brake covers off wasnt too bad really, didn't have to cut them, just use the tabs on the side to pull them up and over the metal pedals and just wiggle them till them come off.
I think its better then cutting them as some people have done, as it means i have the originals for any reason.


I am also in the process of spraying the chrome section around my grill, for the complete boc look ;)
Took the old chrome strip off my standard grill to see if it sprays well, and if i like it.
