Weather was nice enough today and havent gave it a proper going over from I got it, think I've washed it twice in 2 months lol.
Done a few things to it from I got it, new coilovers as old ones were shit, full tints including windscreen lol, straight through exhaust and wheels which I got for free and just a few repairs so with it looking half decent thought 'd give it a spruce up
Washed with red fairly liquid, red because car is red, buffed it with menzerma stuff I bought years ago, polished with AG srp and glazed with farella gold or something. Got some dodo juice wax i bought years ago too might put on it tomorrow if weather is dry again.
Results look fairly decent so far though
Hi
Would love a Cupra R front bumper and skirts for it but had a look on eBay and ther way over £300 which I wont pay, might refurb the wheels or get a set of 19's for it?

Colour looks good when polished up!

Tinted windscreen that'll look great after a few uses of the wipers!

Yea colours not bad, I bought it in the dark and thought it would've been a brighter shade of red and was quite disappointed lol but looks good when its shiny.
Window tint is on the inside of window so wipers won't effect it

Is it metallic or straight colour?
Wheels would look good in a satin anthracite - actual style of the wheel suits the car though.

Metallic, has quite a good pop actually when the sun shines on which isn't very often, my crappy camera doesn't pick it up though.
Yea balling done me a chop of the wheels anthracite and I quite like it, blends in well with the tints and dark lights etc

It takes a special kind of idiot to tint a windscreen. That takes it further than your usual garbage.

Visibility in the rain with the side windows tinted is bad enough, with the windscreen done, it must be horrendous.

Looks a whole lot better than that green turd!
Is it not illegal to tint the windscreen?

It is illegal yea, had it done about 2 weeks now and haven't had any hassle of police, it actually doesn't effect visibility all that much, even in the dark I can still see everything. I always imagined it like wearing sunglasses in the dark but its no where near that bad.
That 'green turd' is in scrapyard now lol, new owner couldn't handle the powarrr
