I hate it when the wife works Monday/Tuesday evenings as theres nobody to stop me buying off Ebay..........I've just ordered a Pug 207 stubby aerial and a set of gloss black rear parking sensors.....O and this morning I ordered Interior Xenon bulbs.......

 

[holmefield]

Err not to mention the Xenon 5000K dip beam kit, Xenon Led sidelight towers, Xenon reg bulbs or the other set of interior Xenon bulbs I ordered a week ago...I've only had the car 9 days....

Like I said Ebay is a bad thing.

Its a legal short plate from halfords. You can only get it that size if you have a max of 6 characters tho.

Been looking at lowering my FR, anyone got an ideas on some good coil overs and how much it cost you?

Just think it would make it look a lot better looks like it's on stilts at the moment.

Pics?

No problem pal, I really like Cupra R's in that blue, I looked at one in Leeds I loved it I walked away to think about it has a look again it was gone

I'll have to get a private plate to have a smaller plate then just can't think of a good one.

I have KW V3 coilovers on mine but there not cheap at over £1k a set. There awesome tho.

It all depends on what kind of use the car will get and what your budget is.

I have AP coil overs. Cost £430, then paid £150 for fitting and alignment.

managed to get the tailgate 90% fitted today,

for anyone wanting to do it, some bits are different

firstly the wiring loom works all the parts on the fl tailgate, how ever the upper brake light wire needs extending as they changed the location of the plug, speaking of the light that has to be new too and there £30

next the mount for the gas strut is different aswell it must be shorter, so i need to order that.

i currently dont know if the rear panel fits either lol,

im kinda stuck now till i get bits, so final adjustment will be done when they all arrive, the o/s isnt flush yet but the n/s is

here are some pics:

I've changed my boot too mate and you will need a different inner panel

 

[jake]

I know bud, all fitted up now. Not the cheapest of mods but really freshens the back end up. Next I need lights

 

[newtimecupra]

Yesterday I fitted parking sensors to my Cupra as the mrs drives it every day I'd like to keep the rear without scratches haha bought a colour match kit for £14.95 at my local spares shop it's very good and easy to fit removed rear bumper too which was easy enough

I still need to get mine sprayed but will do when I have the k1 kit done too, I have bought dectane rear lights instead I think they will look smart

Cheers for picture.

Looks nicely sat. I think I'll need to save up for some of these or go for the big budget ones that Eck mentioned.

I saw a standard 61 plate Golf GTD company car at our carpark do they sit lower than the Leons or was it just my eyesight getting worse?

Would the springs off one of those fit mine?

Thanks for reply.

If I had something like a Cupra I would go for something like this I think. Would suit it a lot better imo.
