Ordered a new rear section for my BCS system. The twin centre exit. Ordered the Cupra R valance too.  It attaches to the existing valance. Then re painted gloss black.

Probably be ordering a carbon fibre tailgate and having it painted red.

I'm away for 6 months but when I return it's going to Alex at AKS for a helix clutch and WMI install finished.

Could always use a slightly softer setting on the struts and arbs.

Thank you!

The plan is replace clutch kit, 155fprv, WMI install finished, ko4 hybrid, Tyrolsport subframe lock kit in October. Probably with a sprinkle of RTech custom software (with Apr the car is rapid but have been trying to get a CEL mapped out for a while now with no joy so will see what Rtech mapping can do.)

I will be happy to class the car as a finished package then.

Ooh have CupraR twin centre exit ordered and CupraR valance :)
