    Bought a couple of things for the sonic this week, splitter which was incredibly cheap, sub for the boot (new unused) and the wheels are off for refurb.

    Wheels I'm thinking black gloss or semi gloss.

    Fitting the black R headlights at the same time and intercooler, the silver around the grill will be blacked as its stone chipped alot and a black mech made up for the lower intercooler bumper opening.

    Better do something with it, it's not being driven, last time was the Dyno day.

    I've seen those Cupra splitters on eBay and they're certainly interesting. I'll be curious to see how you get on.

    I popped a thread on VS and we've bought a few and there almost gone now, I'm guessing it's not an issue for them to restock, but I believe they order from Germany.

    There's a few of us so I'll pop a few pics up, but I won't be fitting mine immediately.
