are you looking at getting your cup spoiler copied in carbon and fiber glass or just carbon and what kind of price as prefer the look of yours

I was hoping to have it made in carbon but for only one would cost me a fortune.  To make 10 or so the tooling cost could be split and would cost around £300 each in carbon fibre but most people will be opting for the trippleR glassfibre splitter by the looks of things due to the low cost.

I'd be up for that Mike if they fit the Golf  :happy2:

I know the standard Cupra Splitter fit the Golf and it looked great!!!
.....and it cost about a tenner  :surprised:

It even fits the S3 pretty good. I found a pic of Toms old S3  :happy2:

Would love 18" Ronal seatcopa wheels ..

http://www.seatsupercopa.com/parts-for-sale/

:)

7.9kg each IIRC.

 :love:  had refusal on them but I dont have the money till I go away with work in a month or two  :sad1:




I went to have a look at a set of cupra r Rpnals (the 19" potenza wheel) the other day - the white set that's on ebay right now.  Some google-research implied they were 9kg each which would have been a pretty good weight for the size.  Luckiliy I took my scales with me as they turned out to be 12kg each which is heavier than the 18 bbs I have on the car now.  Didn't buy them..

BTW I think TE37's are being phased out - the replacement wheel is the VR.G2.
