Thats going to be a nice upgrade and go well with the wheels. Its only the 312 carriers thats required for the upgrade isnt it? You keep the original caliper? And fit 213 discs and pads?

Will do! Even if I get them i wouldnt be putting them on yet as I just replaced all the disks and pads haha!

Can't wait for the summer like with lighter nights and wamer weather - perfect for working on the car.

If it goes for 50 then it's be worth the petrol to get it!

Btw, I found the skirts, they are in ok Nick, not perfect as I used to run so low so some minor scrap marks underneath that you wouldn't see when fitted. PM me your email address and I'll send you some pics. I'm in Watford Monday,Tuesday Wednesday this week so could meet you if you wanted.

Ha, what a nightmare, no sooner do I put them in the garden to take pictures and my brother turns up and says he'll have them, FFS, they be been sat in my shed a year and now he wants them.

Sorry mate. Now only got the smooth rear bumper without rubstrips. He defo doesn't want that. 50 and it's yours.

Also, think about fitting a cupra splitter to your front bumper, makes it look extra low and a really easy job to do yourself if you don't mind trimming the splitter a little.

Will leave the rear bumper but the cupra front sounds good
