Phillc's Mk1 Cupra...

[Phillc]

Well its all MOT'd now just needed the new head lights (which i love) re-setting so happy now, spent all day yesterday washing, clay baring and polishing it, it looks nice now just need to do the inside and start on my new gauge holder to mount the new gauges in. THESE

 

[cuprastupot]

nice gauges. are you just replacing the three in the centre (vents) or you bought all nine gauges in that link to fit somewhere!?
just read your entire thread from the start, really come a long way and your car looks very well indeed i have to say. although i couldnt find pictures of your seats.
Probably nearly spent as much as the car is worth right?, although you've sourced quite a few parts second hand. What made you keep it instead of goin lcr? worth it?

 

[Phillc]

Thanks for reading it all no just bought the three i am on the eternal quest for the perfect gauge think i have found it now though. I will have to look at the pics, i was messing around with my flicker account and deleted some pics by mistake so i will reload them. I buy alot second hand because its cheaper (some times). I did look at getting an LCR but i would have ended up buying loads of stuff again and couldn't see the point, I have put a lot in to it and dont want to start again. so yes its worth it.

Gauges look cack mate, not jealous at all


OJ mate, they look cool as!

 

[Phillc]

Well as i had polished the car this weekend i thought i should take some up to date pic's, so here they are.
They are the first ones with the full suspention kit (springs and dampers fitted,) the other pic's are springs only, i have also fitted new front lights main and dipped projector hids, they are really good, and with the front mount.

The lights are not as dark as they look, they have anice smoked look

Cheers mylo, POP cant come quick enough.

 

[Willie]

Looking very good Phill.

Just a wee touch of yellow on the rear callipers and all will be looking dapper.
Credit to you and your skills Phill, well done mate very nice LC/LCR, lol

 

[Phillc]

Cheers Willie, i havent done the rears yet as i want to get the 308mm rears, but i might do them anyway, i think i shall call my LC an LC+

 

[Willie]

Yup LC+ sounds good.
308mm discs sound awesome and a fair bit of coin but have heard there amazing.
I'd suggest you get 2 piece front discs before going for that

I am sure it answered else where but 308mm will unbalance things or does the dis fit same caliper?

 

[Willie]

Same calliper

 

[Phillc]

Yeah going for the bigger two piece front first, then the 308 rear no ballence problems then.

 

[DPJ]

Good pics, Phil.
