Smooth or not to smooth...

[LEON_FR]

So what you guys think im in two minds. Should i get it done or not...

 

[Copra]

it looks good, but i'd say not....

if you were going all out then maybe, but its a bit random. Spend the money on somethin like putting it towards an FMIC or somethin "usefull"

thats just my opinion though, you may have a different mind set

 

[BHP Addict]

Yes, I'm am a massive fan of smooth n sleek

You had any quotes to do it yet?

 

[RickC]

do it, the s badge is really big and overpowering, i removed my s badge but you need a solonoid to pop the boot

 

[CupraUK]

I think its looks a bit odd. I'd say no.

Out of interest, how do you open the hatch?

 

[GreyKnight]

I don't like it - it looks like there's something missing - and there is!

What Rick said you will need a solonoid to pop the boot for you.

 

[CupraUK]

Ah missed that. I'd like that, but I'd still have some badging on there somewhere.

 

[LEON_FR]

Thanks for that ppl ive always had "smooth" cars had a mk3 golf with smooth boot and audi door handles also a 206 with no door locks so not sure what to do.
£200 for the work.

all my respray and smoothing etc was done here at www.panelcare.co.uk, by jake from here @ paint cost only labour was free as i advertised his company for a year. so wouldnt know how much really, try giving him a call is he too far away?

 

[Icecavern]

Definately do it...

£200? Blimey that sounds like a good price to me. If I could get it done for that cash I'd do mine too

 

[LEON_FR]

yeah £200 well thats a "friends" price as i had many body kits smoothed doors and boots and 2 resprays done @ Bodyshop UK in Stoke.

 

[WeeDru]

Think it looks good but a little bare, so maybe just add a badge or two.

 

[DPJ]

I don't think it looks right with standard lights. ... But with ones like Rick's.........

 

[IrnBru]

I think the back of the FR looks just right as it is. Plus everyone who I've every shown the 'S' boot hatch to has thought it's pretty cool. I like it.

I also honestly think you'll devalue your car if you do it. I know that when I was looking for a used car I stayed well clear of anything with obvious exterior modifications.

It's all personal opinion though.

 

[Icecavern]

People on this site have no style

 

[WatchHill]

I'm with IrnBru.
Too many chavved up Leons these days.

 

[LeeroyBrown]

i think it loks "ok" but i wouldnt have it done, Thats just my opinion tho, i would be thinking it would just crack out and bubble all the time..
