Hi guys new to the page got recommended by Alex from AKS thought id share with you my progress since February

Spec list so far..
BCS 3" turbo back exhaust
Lowerd on eibach springs all round
Porsche 18z calipers on front with Merc disks
r32 rear brakes
r32 rear lights
APR HPFP
Evoms intake

this is the car when i purchased it




DeanSutherland

first of all i had a set of xxr 527 from my mk1 leon reli wanted them to fit but the offset was way to much


so got rid of them and spent to money on a BCS r32 style turbo back exhaust


exhaust is just a work of art

also manged to score a USA r32 bumper already in the right colour

DeanSutherland

got a few wee bits from osir carbon in the states and look todo alot more in future


Also picked up my Evoms intake

Welcome Dean! Car looks great - the front brakes look huuge - guess they are Porsche 18ZL's or something? Are you running spacers?


Edition 30 - no. 1387

Looks like you've managed to get most of the scratches out.

What polisher are your using and products?

I've also got a red Ed 30.

I know I am probably bias but when the tornado red is cleaned and polished they look awesome!

DeanSutherland

there are still some deep marks and the paint was serious hard i used 3 /4 diffrent combos on my 3m rotary to get the scratches out , ive got a tub of definative show edition reli brings up the red  :happy2:
