It will do mate. It sounds vert user-friendly. With heat it's probably going to be more pliable and will hug the contours of the lights really well. Looking forward to the pictures :)

Yeah it does seem so mate. Hoping that's the case that it hugs the lights almost and is nice to work with.

Fingers crossed I'll get time to take the lights off over this bank holiday and get it done. I'll get pictures up of course :)

where did you get tint film from tom

I'll message you the link on facebook mate.

Love what you've done :D lots of time and money spent!
Do you have measurements of your front plate? I'm going to get a smaller one because I've got an LCR bumper going on my derv.

Thanks mate :D Enough has gone into this car but it still wants to take more from me...

On your question.. Front plate: 3/4 size std plate - 390mm X 84mm.

Hope that helps. I got mine from the below and have been very happy with it:

I know what you mean, if I had an LCR (which I probably will next year) I not stop I don't think, I had a go in a cupra 180 stage 1 and wasn't that impressed though lol. So much effort here though!

LCR stage 2 is a different kettle of fish mate, if you're ever about my way I'll take you for a spin.

There's a nicely modified Yellow LCR on pistonheads at the moment for £4,500 with thousands worth of mods that will really save the buyer ;)

Where are you based? I'm away for all the big shows this season, I'm so gutted as the car is actually up to standard now too.... I can imagine its totally different, but considering this cupra was 40bhp more than mine, and the rev range is so much longer I genuinely think mine would have given it a good go, but I've dicked type r's, 330d's in mine and absolutely battered a 106gti the other day in a massive cloud of soot haha!

If you have a spare ten minutes have a look at the last 2 pages of my rr and see the work its had lately, can't justify selling it now lol. I've spent £2000+ in the last month or so....

Based in South East London mate on the outskirts really in the Orpington area.

Haha good old clouds of soot!! Always adds the comedy factor to a nice win I imagine!

I'll take a look at your thread a bit later mate :) I've got to that stage now with mine, spent more than enough and couldn't just sell it now. I enjoy driving it too now more than ever, and my seats are more comfy than my bed, lol. :happy:

I have, someone i know has a spare R32 and offered them to me quite cheap however cost versus the increased bucketing over my recaros wasnt worth it.
If i was to invest in some seats it would be some proper mac daddy buckets

Are you going to that thing this weekend? In London? I was thinking about driving down on Saturday but I'm booking a holiday in Cheltenham with the misses first. They are amazing those seats, I picked up my LCR alloys off m20fes, black fr tdi and he has them. They are definitely the nicest seats I've sat in, close second in gold recaro ones.

What thing? Lol. I've not planned to go to anything no mate. AmD rolling road day is the week after, the SCN one.

Awesome seats indeed, I saw he has them too :)
