For some reason i really dont like that... I'm not sure why... Maybe if it was more subtle it would look better... Just seems to stick out a bit too much if you know what i mean... The car exterior wise looks quite standard...

i like it apart from the low pipe dangling dangerously low, if ur ever going to get loering springs or coilovers that will coome straight off!

Afraid I have to agree with Jamie. It stands out 'too' much. I have a black Cupra also, so its good to see what it would look like.

How about spraying the intercooler itself black, whilst keeping the red piping?

I don't understand why so many are mounting them upside down...

they look so much better right way up.

for the rest nice car. ;)

i do prefer it mounted the other way.. when you do that the pipe that hangs low at the moment can be moved alot further up, and out of sight.

apart from that it looks like a very tidy job! :) as long as your happy with it!

Looks good mate! I prefer the subtle look nothing to do with not showing off but i just think it looks better! Mines is black and hidden behind the bumper with the bar still there!

Agree with reuvers, i prefer it mounted the right way up!
