Fitted my H and R lowering springs.
Rears - Peace of piss 30 mins
Fronts well what an arse lots of swearing and pulling shoving and twisting and sore knees later its on eventually.
So my opinion, great fitment easy to fit once shock is off. handling not sure yet as was pissing down with rain on way home and got cheap ass front tyres on. will update as soon as.

took delivery of one Downpipe, One 15 metre roll of Coolit Heatwrap and one set of Heatwrap snap straps.
Took a little bit of time and wish i would have put gloves on as my hands itch now.
attended GTI international
And also being APR stage 1 and having a downpipe i will also be getting APR stage 2 Remap at GTI inters i shall be doing one run down the strip on stage 1 and then another with the Stage 2.
On another note, i wrapped the grille and Seat badge in gloss black. pics below:
After looking at some cheap, but beneficial mods I decided on this, A Rocker Cover paint job.
I think the bare engine itself looks brilliant, so i decided on a White cover.
Also Carbon wrapped the top of the Coils.
here are the pics below:
So inline with getting the leon ready for GTI inters, i changed thecam follower (needed it badly)
As you can se mine had warn down quite a lot, dont think this has ever been changed.
Then i put in my new OEM Floor mats:
And then gave the car a good clean wash and polish sealed etc, mini wash for GTI inters.
Also got my exhaust fitted and then changed the tip today. today as i started to really dislike the look of it, OEM Freshness:

As you can see clearance is not an issue, mind you after a quick blast down the road made the heatwrap smoke like mad, but smellt really nice.
after that it was down to GTI Inters for a fun day of mud, 1/4 mile sprints, big powered cars and STAGE 2 APR MAP.... Oh yeah.
done 4 sprints, first was crap span into 4th, second - got grip was decent time, 3rd was against a V12 Q7 caught up with it towards the end.
Last run came up against a R8 V10, hmmm no chance i thought. well I beat it....... because his clutch apparently went.

So thats as far as i got ATM, done a Couple of runs at santa pod today and got 13.99, 106 mph Terminal, want to get this down quite a bit over time.
