MY TDI Leon Cupra

[UncleFester]

Looks spot on that Paul - you do realise there's no way you'll keep the exhaust that clean for long

 

[paul26982]

hi m8, ive already relised that, sick of scrubbing it, inside is just black now, the mods list is getting shorter now, just after some trim like yours as the cars red, upper lower struts bost guage and shortshifter, but its that time of year, supose it gives me abit of a break lol, oh fester your cupra looks sweet as too by the way

 

[UncleFester]

Cheers Paul like you i'm coming towards the end of stuff i want to do other than just drive it .... think i'll do eibach ARB kit & maybe a shortshift next year and then that's it except for running costs

 

[paul26982]

same here, this years finished now, once the leon is done think im guna get a second car for the other half, she fancy's a cooper S or somthing, at the moment tho i cant see the leon ever getting finished as sure there will be other little things, hopefully not

 

[paul26982]

well got a SEAT Sport gear knob, the black leather one today, also the cupra R gaitor with red stitching and the handbrake to match, all for £40 with i thought was a bargain, the handbrake was really easy to put on so was the gear knob and gaitor wich i was over the moon, will get pics up of the transformation when i get my cupra R seats etc fitted

oh and also got a cupra R steering wheel to pick up in the next few days

 

[UncleFester]

hehe c'mon Paul - time to get a 'my thread' up and get some pics taken etc

 

[paul26982]

will do at the end of the week when the seats are in and steering wheel on m8, just need to get A pillars and roof liner etc. might even get the same font as the R on the seats, an F stitched in somehow

 

[UncleFester]

When you change the seats over, just make sure the battery is disconnected!!! You may need someone with VAGCOM to turn off the 'pillock' lights warning you about airbags etc. AFAIK as long as you disconnect the batter half an hour or so before you do the swap you should be ok.

 

[paul26982]

yeah cheers fella got a m8 with vag com, still your seat are my favourite tho, getting the roof liner and visors etc is going to be the pain tho, i hate the grey pillars etc

 

[UncleFester]

rob don did the roof lining ... it's a 2 man job really

 

[paul26982]

bet it is, guna cost an arm and a leg too lol

Is that a cupra r back box??
How hard was it to 'make' it fit lol

Looks great btw, is the spiltter held on with self tappers? I definately need to do this!

 

[paul26982]

yes self tappers, i have no back box lol

fitted my S2000 aeriel today, much improvement over the standard one, and at £6.98 posted cant complain, reception is top notch too


can you tell me where you got the aerial from? thanxs!

 

[paul26982]

was an ebay seller, think it was on a yello tt or 350z on the picture but contacted him an he said he had them for the leon RIKH got the same one

 

[paul26982]

so anyone on here got this car now, sue do miss it, just have to think dont look back, its forward you have to go.

I like it on the first page where you say "no one has done rs6's before, touch wood" you didn't touch enough wood - every other leon has rs6's these days it seems!!!

 

[paul26982]
