new fuel filter
cabin filter
air filter
oil change + oil filter

oil was black and only 1/4 on dip so low.. fuel filter was original, air and cabin didn't look to bad...

Oil goes black almost instantly on the CR from what I remember. Few weeks after fresh oil.
So looks like they just didnt top it up enough. Fuel filter has a longer replacement duration as well. No harm done
 
Looks like a neat job there mate!! Tempted to go black on mine and the Cupra lettering

Cheers bud took me ages to sit right and its still not perfect on the corners, im also thinking about plasti dipping the LEON underneath black aswell.
 
thinking of sticking my normal wheels back on this weekend as the 17" winters look poo.

whats the best thing to put on them to protect them and keep them clean?

Hi Rob, with mine i use Poorboys wheel sealant it's a very good product. One key benifit is I find it much easier to clean the wheels after this has been applied as any dirt/brake dust doesn't seem to stick anything like it would without the sealant.

If you look on my readers ride bellow you can see images of application and what they look like afterwards.
 
Do it Dan you can call it a new job gift to yourself ;)

I so want to but, have to be sensible with money at the moment :cry:

is this something i can get from halfords or local shops mate?

Was going to say you wont get Poorboys gear in a local store. Online is the best place for it.

Get yourself some Poorboys Black Hole polish, its made for dark coloured cars and looks amazing.

 
Poorboys black hole is good. Use it on mine sometimes when I don't use Autoglym SRP. Works just as good on red.

Brings dad's daily donkey up a treat:

Splitter looks good CJ. I might have to get one myself soon. The colour of your car looks strange on the photos- more of a petrol blue, looks good though.
