Im going to leave it all in place. Just going to get some new pipe and attach it where the rear wash pipe has come off near the front.
Yer that's the idea!
Let me know if you do it. Be a nice mod if you change your front bumper.
looks loads cleaner at the back now. remamber when i did mine it looked alot better.... could do with a bit of window cleaner tho
Quick update.
Just sorted myself out a set of 312mm brakes.
Hopefully be picking them up one night this week, ready for fitting at the weekend.
Considering painting the calipers purple. Opinions?

have you decided if your painting your rims,,, same colour rims and calipers would look good... an off the wall colour may look better, blue, purple, pink etc to give that shock factor... am i right in thinking your back brakes will be staying the same??

Still undecided on colour. Gonna look into it a bit more and then decide.
Same goes for the wheels. Think im going to look out for some cheapish 16's and have them in a bright in your face colour for when i want it to stand out.
Stefan. The backs will be remaining the same yes. Dont feel the need to replace them to be fair as it already squirms a bit under hard braking.
Antnee. Yep no issues with clearance. Very tight fit but they do fit and will look spot on.

Boredom struck earlier, so out came the good old spray paint.
Had a forge stencil lying around in the garage at home so decided to put it to good use.

Tell more!
Basically, driving along on the M62 on way back from cinema with the missus, doing about 70, and all of a sudden got a massive vibration through the car.
Started to pull towards hard should and as i got into the slow lane there was a thud, and felt like brakes had gone.
got onto hard shoulder, pooing pants, and i thought suspension had failed as was so low on the front passenger side.
Jacked the car up and the wheel fell off. Basically all the wheel bolts had come out.
My guess is it had been tampered with as they hadnt been touched in about 3k miles, and if they were to go from not being tightened sufficiently, they would have gone a long time ago.
Only damage was it folded the arch up slightly.

really like that mate... is it visable through this bumper or is it more for facelift/cupra bumper
cheers
At the moment a little. Once im done yes, all being well.
Not sure about facelift bumper yet. Will wait and see. Few other priorities first.
I's could do with some of those bad boys really!
Go for a REALLY bright colour. Day glo orange or something.
Yeh orange is another one of my considerations. Just dont want to go with the usual red, black or silver.
What else could be cool? Barbie Pink? Bright baby blue......same blue as mine would be cool! Erm.....
