Nope.

But I'm not bothered. A standard Octavia with a taxi sign isn't "doing it right" :wonder:

I was to focused on the lack of images, I didn't read the post.......

Ok guys, so i apologise for the time wasted.. maybe i will post something when it won't be standard anymore..

That's not what this thread is about dude!

I know, it's why I apologised.. as i said someone here on the forum suggested me to post some pics here in this topic, it's why i did it.

Quite a few before you have done the same

Many have interpreted it that just buying a bog standard Mk2 Octavia is 'doing it right'

Hey guys been a while since posting up updated photos. Just recently installed the carbon fibre mirror covers and head light washer covers and carbon wrapped the diffuser fins on the rear spoiler for some added effect. Sorry about the car being a little dirty.

Very nice "crazy vrs"what side sills are they I like ?

They're from superskoda.com

They look like the Golf mk6 GTi sills, the same as Rob_e on his car, will be a lot cheaperTPS than SS!

@ Crazy, I assume the front splitters are from Super Skoda? Love them......

@ fabio978 - Love the rig shot in you signature.

Light washer covers don't look good, everything else looks awesome.

That's doing it right

Only thing I would change would be the washer covers. As they're in the middle of the yellow bumper, they look a bit... 'lost'. The rest =

The yellow one's not working for me. Only thing I really like is the colour if I'm totally honest - I'm a big fan of sprint yellow. The wheels would be ok if they were a lighter colour. The headlight brows, extra vrs badges,all the stick on carbon effect bits are all just detracting from it for me. The grill surround would look better in yellow. The fog light surrounds look OK dark though.

I picked up my car on Friday night (11th) and have already got a long growing list of things I'd like to do........

First thing is I have a set of 18" RS4 Rims that were fitted on my Dad's 06 VRS from New but he's had them in his loft for 2 years now when he sold it so I'm taking them to get them refurbed.

Secondly i REALLY want to lower it, it sits very high at the moment so desperately needs it.

Thirdly I may be putting a performance exhaust, full system on the car with a sports cat but depends if I can convince the Wife.

Lastly cosmetic stuff I am thinking I may possibly go for:

Carbon VRS badges for the Grille, rear, wheels, steering wheel etc.

Light tint for all rear windows

Carbon wrap the pillars & possibly mirrors, roof bars and maybe front grill - can't decide on this.

Think that would see a huge improvement and leave it looking much nicer, plus I run a Detailing business as a weekend thing and think the car would look great if it stood out a tad from standard, plus being an estate it's ever so practical haha.

Now after some serious TLC, Eibach Pro lowering springs and new rims

Getting there anyway, the car has actually dropped a tad from these pics as the springs have settled a bit now...

Would love to go lower, but as a family car used for lugging around loads of Detailing gear on weekends it's not really practical - It certainly looks far better out on the road though so I'm happy with that!

Just thinking what to do next, possibly a remap but not sure if I should do anything cosmetically or not... Wouldn't mind a small spoiler for the roof

Nice to see another Skoda being utilised for lugging Detailing Gear around, as for not going lower you can't blame the Detailing Gear for that, have you seen mine................

Hope all is well Nick.............

Got a new phone so thought I would upload new pics, fog surrounds to match

Like that - looking good.

Still not a fan of the rear clusters, but hey - you can't please all the people, all of the time

Have you tinted the Reflex Reflector's in the bumper as well Alan?

Yes, and I know you are going to give me a lecture, passes mot fine , and they still reflect , keeping up the shine, coming up for nearly 2 years since I came down

There is certainly enough reflective area on those lamps to achieve well over required value I am sure..........

Good news on it still keeping the shine............. :sun:

Was taught well

Lovely car but the rear tint on the clusters looks Horrid I think, one of the nice things about octavias is the rear lamps and u covered them up, tinted lights are so the 90s modding at this stage, sorry for the lecture but I just can't understand how u think it's nice!!!

Apart from that it's a lovely car well done!

each to their own :think:

you will hate Brimmas then?

Lovely car bluevrs, i especially like the tints, i only done from the B pillar back on mine, wish i,d done the fronts now too!
