No those are the 4 small rectangles u see above the number plate. On cupras they are actually holes. Check ebay, it may have been there i saw them

How would you describe the part or piece I’m wrapping to help search for it ? Putting lower or centre bump wrap in but no luck
 
said goodbye to the Blue FR today, gave it back to the leasing company and they're going to charge me for two tiny stone chips (£62!!!)

I'l try to keep the new Cupra clean...

Most allow you £150 worth of grace at hand back so you might be ok

I thought things like this were deemed reasonable? A dent then fair play that’s chargeable, but things that happen during every day driving sounds excessive, can’t expect to hand back a brand new car..

I agree, it's usually regarded as fair wear and tear.

It apparently had some scratches that I'd never seen before, which were classed as fair wear and tear and not charged, this is probably what ray is talking about

When I returned my Ibiza, there were apparently 2 dents that were invisible to me. When I told the person on the day, I can't see them I was told 'that's why I'm a vehicle inspector,' and he used the squiggly line as reflection to identify the 'dents.' Anyway I appealed it, comparing his pics with pics I took with my dSLR camera (luckily he only had a crappy tablet camera), and the manager who I contacted later agreed there was no dent that he can see and refunded charges. You can quote the fair wear and tear handbook, if you wish, that if you can't see it, you can't charge for it.
 
I assumed that, that's why i posted again lol. is that the one you're searching for?
Yeh deffo right and also it’s pre facelift so thanks a lot

Was hoping there would be a tutorial on YouTube or something but it does look self explanatory

Yeah probably quite straight-forward. Not to sound condescending but remember to clean the area thoroughly before applying the decal.

Used some of the spare copper vinyl, from messing up the front intakes a few months back, to do the dsg cap. Seen it on a few others and quite liked it. The badge is no longer the only thing copper in the cockpit now.

Cracking job mate...... did you have to take it apart to do that?
It just pops off using the edge of a credit card at the top front end of the cap. I then cut the vinyl slightly bigger than needed and used heat to get all creases out. My wife thought I'd bought the cap in copper and didn't believe I'd wrapped it. 5 min job.

Cool. Thanks. Mine's an FR manual, but I assume it's the same. I'll check tonight

Is it normal that my Leon’s a bit jerky when left in second gear in traffic without applying much acceleration?

my previous car was an Ibiza and I could leave it in second from one end of the traffic to the finish no problem and do clutch control without been jerky, but trying crawl in second in my Leon and attempting clutch control in traffic when it slows then ends up a bit jerky, you’re talking 5-10 mph until before I actually apply gas to move quicker.

I'd say you need to be in first gear. I stay in first in slow moving traffic unless i'm moving faster than 10-15mph.
