Extended the warranty but due to it being a cupra I didn’t get the mot and service included. Just a like for like warranty at £400
what did you and your mk3 leon do today
- Thread starter seatleon2012
- Start date
Finally washed the car after fitting the cupra spoiler, used a new product duel flex, meant to seal the paint for 6-8 weeks, certainly does give good beading when applied, let's see how it goes

Looks great that mate, love the spoiler and red calipers!
Me and my brother installed the light guides for the ambient roof lighting last weekend.
It's hard to show the look of these lights in a picture, but I'll try it anyway. The first pic is during install, it's not in its final position yet. The second one is after a nightly drive. The light guide looks slightly brighter on one side (and it's being reflected by the glass roof), which was caused by a coding mishap on my side
All is working like it should work: controllable by the on-screen controls, they can be dimmed by the 'Roof' group. During driving, it's not distracting at all, which was my main concern. Now I need to decide what I'll do next.
And while I'm sharing these, I might as well share the rest of the ambient lighting:
These 2 LEDs are controllable over the Center Console group.
Door pocket has an additional LED (it doesn't show too well on this picture), footwells are RGB too.
Door pocket up close, (sorry for blurryness)
View from my position:
And the 2 red lights in the dome unit now turned RGB as well. In the picture you see some light leaking to the button, but that's not visible from the driver/passenger positions. The green you seein the reading lights is reflection. These two are still white, otherwise I wouldn't be able to read a book while driving
I need to find myself a darker place to be able to take some better pictures. But that's for a later time.
If anyone has any ideas what other positions I should brighten up, let me know

Had my kerbed alloys refurbished. Before:
And after:
And after:
Very nice, like the black too, how much did they cost and who did them for you.
£288 in total. Took about 4 hours. The guy came out to me n did em while I was at work. The company’s called Wheel Wizard.
They look great! I’m nipping over this morning to one in Nottingham called ‘The Wheel Specialist’ to see what can be done with mine

Yeah, wasn’t a bad price. And he’s done a very good job. The hard part now is not kerbing them… I’ll be parking a mile away from the kerb for sure. I’m not a fan of full black alloys on a light coloured car, but that’s just me.
Took it for it’s annual service and MOT. It had the tracking sorted and new brakes fitted, think I might need to set up a gofundme 
Added a few bits, engine and battery cover, pedal covers, front valance, and gear knob insert

Got a link to what you got? Going to have to do all disks & pads this year and looking for something of decent quality.
Where did you get the front splitter? Is there a rear one to match? Would it fit a pre-facelift mk3?
Ali express, there is a version for pre facelift aswell
