My first Seat, recommendation welcome :)

[splinter26]

Hey thanks for your reply I was torn between the red and the black as my local dealer had both at the time, i ended up going for black, which i do regret in a certain way due to how often i need to clean it, and heat in the summer.

Yeah i see where your coming from as far as the grille is concerned, i wouldn't have bothered getting it done by itself, but thought as i was getting the new gear stick etc i may as well as i dont like the larger gaps at the front.

My wheel's are 15's, and i'll think i will stick with that for the new alloys

As for tinting, i may well do it myself as after the alloy's i will be on a bit of a budget, but i'll see how it goes

thanks for your reply

black is nice but hereby i am attaching the pics in the show room which i decided on red.Also in Turkey the white colour is selling good .

also please explain what you mean by ''Yeah i see where your coming from as far as the grille is concerned'' and waiting for the alloys pics fitted.

regards

As for the grille i mean that i understand why it can be seen as a pointless add on as its barely noticeable.

It's going to be about a month before i can afford to get the alloys as i've just got back from a holiday in Paris, and in two weeks i'm off on holiday again to Amsterdam so money's going on that for now. As soon as i get them there will be photos up here.

[yusuf_1977]

no i am planning something different may be to cover it with carbon or polished black or may be silver colour.later i will decide with the alloys fitted.

 

[splinter26]

Looks nice man i like it. Like your ideas for the wing mirrors as well. I was thinking about getting carbon pillars after seeing them on another website, however they were for another car. Doubt i'll be able to find any for this car yet.

I cant believe i cleaned my car yesterday and one simply traffic detour and :

Hello,

I was wondering how are the accessories being mounted...I am going to order some stuff, but I do not know how to install it..is there a glue or double-sticker in the kit so you can attach them? The dashboard trim set is being put OVER the old dashboard, so I guess it will have some stickers.
Also there is an accessories for the 3rd door of the SC - Tailgate Chrome Styling Strip..how can I install it myself?
Anyone have an idea?

Best regards...

The have stickers. You can do it yourself but you must be carefull because you only have one chance of geting it installed correctly. I also suggest the Door sill guards. http://www.seataccessories.co.uk/product/Door_Sill_Guards_6J0071500A

Get some pics up if you do add the chrome tailgate thing cos I've only seen it on the website... Im just trying to get my posts up to 15

Massive delay in updating this! Been a long time since i've done anything new to the car, but finally got my alloys. Got 17" Dezent motions 2 black. £315 for the set £470 in total with shoes on.

Only got one photo as it stands, not best quality, just after a camping trip with my mate looking a mess in the drivers seat. I'll try get some better pictures up soon.

Can't help but feel like it needs to be lowered now, but i wouldn't know where to start.

Still wanting to get the windows tinted. Also having seen some fantastic examples on here, i have decided to paint my seat badges Black with a red trim. Also tempted to try the silver outline to the front grill in red. Found a cheapish replacement grill so if it looks horrible i'll refit the original! Just need to find the paints and look into sanding it down etc. Haven't a clue how to get the back badge/ handle of despite the help on here. Cant seem to find the screws...

Loving those wheels mate!!!!

 

[char_baby]

Oh i thought you actually went for the FR honeycombe grille. IMO i wouldn't have bothered with the one you have.

Though you do have the gear stick which i want to change mine to, when i test drove the seat thats the one it had in it so was a bit disappointed when it came with some round one.

Nice car though

 

[splinter26]

Mk3 Cupra: Cheers I do love them, can't believe it took me so long to get them!

char_baby: I wasn't aware of the FR grill at the time lol oh well, i'm tempted to remove the grill i have an paint it a dark red or gun metal colour to make it stand out a bit better. I'll see how it goes.

 

[char_baby]

oooh cool. definately get it lowered all the ibizas do, they stand on stiltsat the mo, mine will be lowered some point this year. By the way, that was one dirty car!!

Looking good mate, get some pictures up showing the wheels in all their glory!
