What did you and your MK2 do today?

[Jarre]

Had mine glossed too, looks so much better than standard.

How did you do that, wrap or paint? If you paid a body shop, how much was it?

 

[Crafoo]

I paid for it to be painted dude, I don't know if you've seen my RR thread but when I got my car the rear box had taken a little knock and melted all the diffuser so I had to buy a new one, got them to paint it gloss at the same time.

Cost me £100 from memory to do the valance and the diffuser.

Had the R in for a full service today. Runs much nicer and doesn't sound like a bag of spanners when starting up anymore.
They stripped the brakes and cleaned them as well. Much better pedal feel now. Not bad for 138 quid all in

Just ordered 4 Goodyear Eagle F1's for the K1, fair whack of pennies, but heard nothing but good things on here, so gonna give them a try! Plus think I got a pretty good deal on them from Camskill as you guys recommended few posts back

Thanks chaps! Let you know how I get on.

I put them on the Cupra tail end of the last year, and they've lasted well, and are very grippy and perform well in the wet! No stutter off the line when nailing it!

 

[Rob_Talisman]

Got them on my current fronts. And ill get them for my new wheels allround.

I've got them on all 4 too, happy with them

 

[Robbo-K1]

Excellent! Glad to hear you guys giving good reviews aswell, seem to be a spot on all rounder...are they lasting quite a while then? wearing well?

Hopefully made a good choice then and I don't think £90 each was a bad deal!

Cheers chaps!

Definitely not a bad deal, mine should be delivered tomorrow and I'll hopefully get them fitted at the weekend, not good running around on the space saver :-(

 

[Robbo-K1]

Sounds good Paul, did you buy the same ones off Camskill aswell mate? In the deal?

Ah yeah, be good if ya can and get that space saver back hidden away again!

 

[Daniel M]

Not my Leon but fitted a new auxiliary belt & tensioner to the gf's A3. Glad she can have it back instead of using the FR lol

Yeh got them off camskill as well mate

at least the space savers black 2 match my alloys well apart from the massive yellow sticker lol

Getting the back end de-badged on friday. Also got myself a nice big lump of clay bar, did one of the front quarters as a test at work tonight and i'm impressed with the results takes a bit of time mind you but it leaves a baby's ass finish.

Giving ma tubes a wee clean

 

[Robbo-K1]

Ah cool mate, did seem like a very good offer they were doing! Should have mine here from them by Friday. Can see how the big yellow band could stand out!!

Debadged rear end should look good, I considered doing mine, but quite like the cupra and k1 badge, especially the way cupra is spaced out...different to most cars.

Clay bar's are awesome, like you said, leave an awesome finish!

Weeheeeey! Cant beat abit of wee tube cleaning! Looks awesome lol.

 

[JamesLCR]

I'm hearing peoplepeople going on about a Clay Bar? What is it and what one is recommended? Also how do I go about using it? I'm a bit useless when it comes to cleaning products haha
