  1. What option did you go for in the end, were the euro car parts the generic fabia ones?
  2. Does the black bumper lip/splitter not detach from the Monte carlo bumpers? Guessing its just adhesive stuck on
  3. The breaking one is a 2013 Fabia not sure of trim but the bonnet, bumper and crash bar will fit then to find a N/S headlight, fog and damaged plastic trim!
  4. Found a white one breaking a few miles from me, the front end intact so I'll be replacing all those parts at once. Just wanted to check the bumper is no different (appears same from what I've seen)
  5. That was the plan, hey it needed upgrading! Not all smooth tho the water pump decided to start leaking today a few miles after leaving for work, thankfully not too bad the low level only came on as I pulled on my drive then filled it back up. Booked in for a waterpump and cambelt next week. Also picked up a 14 Fabia 1.6tdi this week so this might be up for sale soon! Least the new owner will have a new belt, pump, pads, fmic and several other bits! Should also mention the seats cleaned up decent
  6. Hi Guys just picked up a 2014 Monte Carlo 1.6tdi thats had a light bumper and needs the headlight bumper and bonnet replacing. Before I go ahead ordering parts is the Monte Carlo Edition bumper different to other models of MK2 or just the bumper inserts and lights being tinted that make it different?
  7. After 10 miles back on the road the lower intercooler pipe started popping off, good excuse to swap to this forge fmic ☺️
  8. New fronts and read pads, drop link, some vrs wheels and two new tyres. Started the car to move it after fitting everything but it didn't start and the alarm started to go off. Locking unlocking the car wouldn't stop it ended up disconnecting the battery and it stopped after about 10 minutes. Guessing it's a immobiliser issue? Any way of disabling the alarm or removing the speaker part for it till I get it resolved? **** the neighbours off a little less that way
  9. Back to standard height, dam these wheels and clocks are nasty!
  10. Not the worst I've seen but will be giving the vax a go this weekend. other bits I forgot needs the dogbone mount replacing and keys pairing properly for the remote central locking to work. Passenger door central locking doesn't unlock on the key either but all other doors do, but locking with the central locking closes it so I'm guessing door card off something's catching when unlocking only.
  11. Probably needs pairing again seen some videos on YouTube, need to do mine but it didn't work when I tried
  12. Hi Guys, My first post here having picked up a Mk1 06 Fabia VRS as a cheap daily run last weekend that really needs some serious TLC. THankfully it has good miles at only 84k. The previous owner has been rather mod happy but really not to my taste, thankfully nothing that cant be undone. The clocks, window switches and door lock led have all been colour changed mainly to bright white lights and red for the indicators. Whats involved in reverting these back to standard? On the hunt for some standard VRS alloys, the Audi ones will be up for sale and the engine bay trips returned back to black rather then the ghastly red! Lowering springs have also been removed for now back on standard suspension. Also on the to do list clean up the rather stained original VRS seats, professional mop/polish of the terrible paintwork and restore the headlights with some sandpaper.
