Looks good mate. I hate wrapping things, mainly because I'm not great at it haha

 

[AlexC]

Not perfect but was happy with the first attempt. Had to get help to do the mirrors, an extra hand is needed really. Badging is easy enough done by yourself if you've got abit of patience

Yeah I did my mirror covers the other week and as good as they look the finish just isn't perfect, so Im going to spray them instead.

Mine aren't perfect either, might have another attempt at a better wrap if the imperfections get on my nerves which is a real possibility. See how it looks in a few weeks with the wheels, springs and roof done. Toyed with the idea of getting rid of the "leon" on the back, could be awkward to wrap

Leon badge comes off very easily. I also did this a few weeks back.

Might give the wrap a go and see what happens, will look odd if all the chromes gone except the lettering

Urgh standard Leon ride height looks so awful, far too high. Get it dropped

 

[AlexC]

Yeah that's the next thing on the list, getting a few more pennies together then eibach sportlines will be on order

Looks smart mate! I'd suggest something like a fly eye kit or tinting spray for the rear lights too or try and pick up a set of FL ones, much nicer IMO

 

[AlexC]

Wasn't sure what the law was on tinting the lights meant to look into it but havnt had a chance

Looks good mate.

Fly eye tints are legal on both front & rear lights as far as I know.

 

[AlexC]

Might give it abit of research over the weekend and get some ordered

I did my front (check my RR) with Fly eye, completely legal. I bought the big size in 'black 2' was about £15 and done both front lights and fogs

 

[AlexC]

Yeah looks good mate, will have to get a decent set of bulbs, got a cheap set of whiteish coloured ones in at the minute but not particularly bright. Would love a set of the newer rear lights but price seems very steep for a little improvement

Yeh if your goin to do front I'd suggest upgrading your bulbs. I think Plasti-Dip do a tinting spray as well but don't know how good it is or legal haha
