The day I got the car from the dealership
Looking very standard

SEAT Leon Cupra R Splitter
Latest and greatest mods - Carbon Fibre Vinyl, smoothed bonnet and a badgless grill that actually fits.

Exactly what I was going to say, the grille looks a bit of a bodge and the vinyl on the bonnet looks a bit cheap.

The grill is the FK one, it's one of the best fitting and at £150 the vinyl wasn't "a bit cheap"

Exactly. Go on ebay, there's hundreds of modified cars with "1000s" spent on them that look cheap.
If you really paid £150 to have it vinyl'd you got owned, because from a distance it looks like you've matt blacked it. No shine to it at all. Should've waited for a decent real carbon bonnet to come up secondhand, it would've matched the shine of the rest of the car and would've cost the same.

Hardly got owned, plus to get a real carbon fibre bonnet would have cost £300+ and not to mention the insurance increase. Not sure how much the welding and spraying cost, my mate runs the garage so he just gave me a bill with everything totaled at £150, welding, spraying, and vinyl included.
