  • Pssst.... Anyone wanna see my retrim?

  • Just need to paint the grille a different colour. I see you have been experimenting with that! Maybe just black or might even try to get a spray can made up of the same paint as the wheels....

Just seen the pics of yours, looks smart by the way! Did you remove the small Cupra badge at the bottom of the steering wheel?

Yes, a company called Auto-Trim Systems here in Leicester are doing it next month. Possibly something like this photo but in red leather.

Haha! It's like a fine smoking jacket. Dumps on the standard trim that's for sure.

I bet, you can't beat the smell of new leather too :)

Ok, took some better pics this morning. Just waiting for the LCR steering wheel to be retrimmed now.

 

Hopefully i'll get time this weekend to give the car a proper winter detail.

Right, time for an update. Finally got round to fitting the brake callipers bought from Jason! Went for Brembo pads and disks all round.

Result - massive improvement. The old brakes never really inspired my confidence but they respond much better and the feel of them is a lot better. Would have loved a set if brembos up top but I honestly don't think it needs anymore braking power. Not unless I go much bigger on power.

Just need to paint the callipers Rosso Red now!
