Leon - OEM/Spoon

[LeonL]

Bought this almost empty shell in Belgium. Has had a complete repaint. Engine bay included. No engine, and most of the bolts/interior are missing.

Going for a VTi look. B16a2 engine. EG6 interior.

Recaro's that came with it. Need to be redone though. But might end up using the EG6 front seats.

EG6 one piece wing. Got it cheap

HEL stainless brake lines, KW Variant 2 suspension. New discs, some body coating to protect it all.

Back on it's wheels, added some side moldings, EG6 front lip. OEM headlights and new OEM corners.

Found a B16a2, around 140.000km (87.000 miles?)
Cleaned it up. Started polishing the header that came with it.

Thanks man,

And sure:

As I am going for the EG6 interior I already bought these nice Gathers speaker covers.

A friend of mine has swapped a K in his EG. He is going to give it a go at Time Attack. When I heard that I was the first to get my hands on this:

The best thing about this is that I can get everything out of his EG that I need. All the needed brackets etc. So easy to fit it to my EG. The front bits, door panels and seats are still in his car until he finds something else.

nice EG man, the EG6 front seats arn't to bad hold you well. nothing like a recaro though

though i noticed the gathers speaker covers in the pictures at the top.
Colour looks great also, very BOLD !

 

[LeonL]

Thanks man

The reason I bought the EG6 seats as well, is to have a complete interior.

Guess what:

These will be fitted while the EG6 seats go up the attic

And for the covers:

Also bought a complete set. Have a set covers spare now

And thanks, it is hard to get it right on a photo, in person it looks way better.

Did some work on the EG the past few days. Got my radio in and got it working. Fitted the rear EG6 swaybar. Got some other parts in that I mounted yesterday.

So I got this in and got it to work. Had to lengthen the radio wires of course. Sorry for the crappy pictures.

The rear license plate lights were missing (one of the many things missing). So I bought some lights and got the right connectors with some wiring.

Easy fix.

The other parts I got in. No pictures of them on the car yet. Fitted these yesterday.
Buddyclub camber set for the rear. And Blox toe arms

And last week I got this from the dealer, he was cleaning up a bit. It fits, but only just

 

[LeonL]

Well, the B is in. Need to find some more parts to get it running. But getting there.

And got up early today. For a Sunday it was early. But all for a good cause.

I also painted the valve cover. Need to sand the lettering. And did some small things here and there
