This has made me want a Jabbasport RARB now, ready for when i save the pennies for a Shark Stage 1. :)

Your car looked stunning mate. Was great putting a face to a name :-)

I wish I held out for a blue one!

Looks awesome, great work and car

Good to chat tonight Dark Hero. Your Seat Surgeons retrim is awesome !

Thanks mate. How do you rate the cone in a box? It looks great

Yeah looks good. A pity it's hidden in the air box ! Jabbasport claim more airflow due to more surface area. As my buddy Lloyd suggested could do with a see through air box lid.

That's true. I wonder how easy it would be to make a clear perspex one... hmmm

Update!

Sorry it has taken so long as Gee had the pics on his phone and has been a busy boy working so has taken him aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages to send them over!! :rofl:

Start of the week he came over and broke my car for me..

Had to get the wire that runs from the head unit to the cam. as the cams obviously on the tail gate, its needs to go up the C pillar to the rubber pipeing that takes the tailgate loom from the car. All trimmings needs to be removed and the roof lining dropped.

And also this stiffens up the front end a treat !

Photo whore. :ph34r::rofl:

green strut brace FTW!!

Ok so as the Furby brakes were not the most capable stoppers in the world my husband has donated the 312 set up from his octy complete with Ferrodo DS2500 pads. The feel and bite is now much improved and a worthwhile mod. Also the Chelsea Tractor ride height has been reduced 30mm after fitment of some H+R springs. And as the little Furby will double as the W8 performance demonstrator a suitable Private plate was purchased.

wide mouth it!!! ill do it when i do your octy! lol

number plates was made and fitted by a professional i think pete will agree ;)

Thanks to pete letting me take a quick drive up the road the other day ive now found myself looking for new hubs so i can fit the 312 brakes to mine! damn Pete is going to cost me some money! :( haha

Yes indeed I do agree Adam your number plates are spot on thanks for fitting them on Saturday. Also a big Thankyou to all at Saunders Abbot in Sidcup. A friendly family business where customer service shines. Exactly the sort of people I prefer to do business with. Highly recommended for all your Skoda motoring needs.

Thanks Pete! :) I will let them know how happy you are with their services :) and if you still haven't got round to doing that seal i get in at 12 this saturday so pop down saturday afternoon and i will get it sorted.
