Replaced the leds for some brighter ones

Ordered myself an Oil catch can

Few little things

Drained my catch can

Got the intercooler pipe shortened the other day so it can't knock on the strut brace any more

This has bothered me for a while.

Bit of tape makes it look slightly better!

Awaiting new injector seats before I fit this:

Finally I finished off the sub install a bit:

Cut a hole in the trim:

Then added a grille to protect the sub:

My usual helper:

Fitted a Ripspeed RS Very stubby Ariel from Halfords £9.99 reception fine only 120mm in length,code number 919647

Drove the Fabia (done more miles this week than I have in about five weeks!)

Re-fitted my original rear shocks and springs.

I still don't have the front coilovers yet, so can't get a cert for the adjustable suspension. No cert means no warrant of fitness (MOT) and and my warrant is due in a couple of weeks.

Looks a bit stilt-like now, though that was before I gave it chance to re-settle

Used my new code reader to clear the glow plug fault now I have put some new ones in so the EML is now OFF

Washed, polished and waxed the fabia.

New genuine VRS mats!

Snow foamed, rinsed, washed, dryed with Megs Speed Detailer and drying towel, toped up wax with Zymol Z12 and wiped down with Zainio Z8. Cleaned glass with Megs Glass Cleaner and hoovered out the cabin. Result, 1 shiny Octi vRS

Fabia fixed and winter tyres are on.

Gave it a MEGA CLEAN, tacking out bottom grills headlights and no plate to really do properly, will last about 5 mins down the road!

Let's see some pictures! please....

Got the car washed - first time since October

Edited 8 January, 201115 yr by chrisw880

Cleared another three inches of bloody snow off it. Just been out and it's been snowing again! Grr.

I did this pointless thing:

Next plan - I have some bits on the way to replace and tidy up that bright blue catch can pipework that I've never really liked the look of.

Don't worry I sorted out those kinks in the pipe after taking the pics

Also spent 2 hours doing the SWMBO's Mazda with Cut n Shine (the local equivalent of T-Cut) - looks really shiny now and it got out a few of the surface scratches.

Let's see some pictures! please....

Here you go

Looks good Rob very nice, but I cant help thinking, your engine bay is immaculate yet you have gaffer , or duck tape on your trim by your steering column , why don't you replace that ?

Fitted replacement tail lights, cleaned the inside & re sealed the O/S passenger door carrier. Hopefully that will sort out the damp foot well!

swapped front wheels/tyres to rear and rear to front.

Found a split hose under engine cover bodged with some copper pipe nad clamped in place.

Lets see if that gets rid of the horrible sickly sweet smell thats in the car at idle :wonder:

absorbed all water off inside of windscreen (hoping no rear door leaks as was quite a bit, but no damp floors)

Gave car & wheels a good wash as not been done for a while. Easy job with the wax still fresh on the paint.

Ummm, that's it....

Suceeded in getting an average of 41 MPG, Not sure how accurate the on board computer is buy hey, lol...

Here you go

They look good... I am considering buying some myself... are they clip on? cup like? :-)
