That sucks Richard, would have thought they'd be happy with a custom sale full stop.

Only other option is to buy the seats and get them re trimmed else where

Love your new sig too

I figured listing the cars with links was looking a bit sad...

What about cobra seats?

Yes, another option.

I'm going to have a hunt on ebay too.

 

We have a retrimming company we use at work for when kids damage the seats and they are good, so that's another option if I get something at a nice price on ebay.

 

I just don't like being told no and then still handing a fair amount of money over to Corbeau, followed by paying extra to remove the branding.

I agree That would be a kick in the teeth. Hope you find something great

Get the branded seat and then colour in the stitching with a black marker pen!

That lot should keep you busy Richard

Just use a stitch ripper to pull out the stitched logo? Can't they settle with a little tag branding as per seat surgeons leather seats

Any updates Richard!

It's in being sprayed.

Expect it back the end of this week, beginning of next.

 

Not made a decision on seats yet.

The APR dealer has come back to me and found a downpipe/air intake etc... just waiting on an email to confirm parts arrival.

Awesome, any sneaky pics of colour choice?

Good news on the parts too. At least it's progressing

Nope.

You tease mr Wheeler! Can't wait to see it though

Got the wheels and tyres, so will get them made up and put on the car when it's done.

Hopefully it'll look quite good.

Can you at least say if it's a standard Yeti colour?

 

Sorry - not good with suspense!

Can you share your wheel choice?

Good grief, you guys are not very patient are you!

 

It'll only be a week, or less.

Nope :p

I'm fine waiting as patience is a virtue.

It'll be Race Blue

It is Charlie.

 

Will get a set of R8 coil packs too, just to guard against any future issues.

Good call

Found this video on my PC from Brands in November 2013.

 

Hopefully the change from 200bhp diesel to 320bhp petrol will give me a bit more grunt down the straights as that's where it's lacking a bit.

It's great in the corners for a car on road tyres.  But is fighting a losing battle against wind resistance!

 

 

Would be nice to be able to keep up with lightly tweaked 300bhp Scoobs.
