Horrible wheels - will never work on a fabia :p

Horrible wheels - will never work on a fabia :p

lmao, i got the 3 plus 4 centre caps for £140 reasonable? how much you think i should pay for a singe alloy max?

There's always plenty for sale on ebay. Even if you paid £80 - £100 for one wheel, the overall cost of the set is still pretty £low.

Doesn't seem clear from the pics, but what wheels have you gone for? - 8.5j rears / 7j fronts, or 7j all round?

If 7j all round, you'll deffo need larger spacers at the back to get the wheels to fill the arches.

yeh i have 2x 8.5j rears and 1x 7j front so if you come across a 7j front let me know mate, thanks

nothing exciting just a few photos. beading from the rain the other day....

ok washed and dried tonight and a random of the engine bay.

and i dont think i ever posted one of my cd player i got at xmas....kenwood kdc-bt50u, there are load of colours for the dials available, can even change individual parts but this matches perfectly, somehow didnt pick up a match in the camera but it does. good unit and has all the toys built in.

Heres my 2006 vrs , might give you a few ideas.

also with some other wheels which i did nt like so got the ones in top photo.

Well my mk4 ibiza's been gone for over 3 weeks now, manage to pick up a 2005 mk1 Fabia vRS, roughly 65800 miles. Pretty standard, it has standard alloys done black (which i cant decide if i like or not) and the fabia is debadged from the back.

Dont have any pics yet but there will be soon. Nothing is going to be happening for a while as i have to get money back and get saving.

gave it a good old blitz/detail,

Plans of the future

Alloys

Lower

Light tints (inc sunstrip)

Clean and tidy engine bay (may paint engine cover)

Xenons

LED bulbs for number plates

Dubmeister pressed plates

LCR splitter

Colourcode plastics

S3 sharkfin aerial

there will be more plans but it will be over time.

got a chance on friday. so started a good old detail but the rain came down so didnt get 100% finished but it will do for the time being. done the interior today, hoovered etc.

and shots from saturday

ive posted a pic of my vrs , may give u a few ideas mate

@proevofan....thanks bud , yours aint unlike mines except the wheels, coilovers soon hopefully, then i will get round to sorting out my porsche rims

fitted these today for good measure. common fabia problem with handbrake sticking so just so it doesnt happen in the future fitted vw sharan springs. 7M0 615 295 and 7M0 615 296, no toold just simply jack up locate and pull into place using your grip. i was facing uphill so put it into 1st and released the handbrake to make it easier. if it even did lol.

and fitted

same on the other side

some photos i got tonight

4th porsche wheel bought. they should be going in to get powdercoated next week, also got a strut brace off ebay this morning, that too will be getting powdercoated a different colour

porsche boxster twist go in next week for a refurb, so i go silver or anthrecite? i was set on silver untill i done a photoshop of my old wheels onto the vrs to get an idea of the colour agaisnt the black.....i likey alot. also lowered it as the alloys wont be going on till its lowered. certainly different, this was the same anthrecite sparkle im considering, makes a change from boring silver.....should i do it? (just imagine instead of leon FR+ alloys being porsche twists)

few bits and bobs, vrs footrest. polorear wiper, new plastic number plate the other day and 4th porsce alloy , few more bits should be here tomorrow.

poor old wiper was soo seized on, its snapped when it was removed

should look something like this....

Look's lovely mate. Nice and clean example of a black VRS!

What sidelights and Reg. plate lights Is it you have In?

Oh, and Kilmarnock, you're not too far from me!

That could have been me mate! Number plate ends in "WTF". Silver and lowered is all thats noticeable till the end of the month when pay day comes. A lot of my friend's are from ayr/prestwick so I'm down that way quite a lot these day's and I bought the car last year from a guy I know that stay's In Ayr but I'm from Dumbarton just outside of Glasgow.
