ND-Photo.nl 's - Seat Leon ST Cupra 280

I had mine fitted last week, the initial bite is very similar to pagids.
I should have taken better pics when the wheels were off but mine have this kinda carbon effect.View attachment 54351

Might be a newer batch? Looks pretty cool Did you notice the difference with regards to brake dust already?

I've only done 300 miles, but so far the rims are clean.
To bed them in i just took it easy and after 50 miles they were done.
I didn't go for the heavy braking cycles as I didn't change the discs.

A while ago I heard a weird ticking noise when the car was moving. I later found out I had a piece of nail sticking out of a tyre. Luckily it didnt punch through!

I check my tyre pressures regularly and I am happy to report that all tyres hold their pressure quite evenly

I love that you can only see a slight hint of the front upper strut brace Do you feel any difference with it fitted? Would be almost invisible on my red wagon ?

Additional video: checking the clearance around it. You can't go with a filter with a very big diameter, as you will run into clearance issues with the hood and the stud below

Reflective tape renewed as it was battered by the weather. Renewal is about 10 mins, so no biggie

Quite the difference!

Looks fantastic, this is much needed on the facelift however theres no space for it.

@Mo_86 I also really like the look of the red strip. Unfortunate that the facelift does not have this in the bumper

Tried this out, but the effect wasn't as good as expected, so I removed them again

August 2025, I tried out the Glaco glass compound and I am very happy with this. You need to do a little bit more work for application, but it works very well. See the beading effect on the big panorama roof
