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.

[Dark_Hero]

I can tilt my head reminds me of a traditional gentleman's club. I bet its a great place to be now

[walejase]

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

[Dark_Hero]

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

[walejase]

Wearing it or sitting on it?

[devonutopia]

What about those brakes?!  :P

[Dark_Hero]

They're still a secret! Need to get painting them actually...

[walejase]

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.

Red belts and shelf aswell, nice touch....I hate you even more now lol.

[walejase]

  Glad you like it!

[DanHam]

Ewwwwww horrible, I think you should sell it to me

[walejase]

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!

[walejase]

Oh and I picked up these wheels last night too.....
