Featured Replies

its probaly the time of year [i hate it] but im feeling bored, and before i bought the fabia that would involve scouring [spelling?] the sales ads on my old forum and result in me buying either something for the suspension,swapping and trying different exhaust / intake's combo's ,tweaking the map or modifying the car in some needless way gaining 1 or 2 bhp just to keep me happy for a month or 2 ....now tho it doesnt quite feel the same driving the vrs as there is limited 'cheap' mods to keep me entertained....emoticon-0136-giggle.gif

anyway rant over [for now] emoticon-0136-giggle.gif

so far ive got the pd160/k&n panel,and shark remap so performance wise im happy and dont feel i need to improve this,as its fine for what i need, and weitec coilies so she handles ok

But wouldnt mind a uprated lower engine mount [dogbone bush] to help with smooth gear changes , which is best for everyday use, i take my boy to nursery everyday so needs to be useable and not silly vibration wise, and i fancy a different grille [see link] http://www.superskod...y/F1-FGMTG4.jpg but the only place i can find is superskoda ?? .... anyway if your still reading at this point you must also be bored so feel free to cheer me up and give some inspiration emoticon-0102-bigsmile.gif

cheers Mark

how about colour coding your door handles?

If your that bored you can come clean my house walk my dog then cook me dinner? Sounds like a great cure for boredom :)

My cars depressing me at the moment I've owned it a month it could be due to coming from a Clio 182 or it could be due to the vrs having a broken intercooler and the front brakes sticking on and it doing 100 miles to half a tank due to the two problems I just listed.

If your bored why not respray the car alien green with st orange alloys :)

Buy my Polo GTi! (Or swap;))

Leather retrim? See if you can get hold of just the covers and try and fit yourself? Seats from the sport/bohemia models?

Colour code your chrome grill get the fly eyes kit

As someone mentioned the door handles... U You can get a nice set that need painting to match but they come with inbuilt lights... LED I think. As I believe, you can have them set to come on with the lights or with the signals. (Mutch better idea.

If you do this, another time of boredom could see you remove the wing indicators as they would be surplus, plus fairly individual, too :thumbup:

ive looked at that twice..... and i can see what youve typed now [youve put your text in middle of my text] ive not seen those before , any link? emoticon-0148-yes.gif

I don't like the wheels and I think you should colour code the grill surround (and handles). Have you done stuff like anti-roll bars and uprated front bushes? Strut brace? HID's? Sound system? Leather re-trim? Lamin-X front lights/front fogs? EGR Delete? Aero wiper blades?

Superskoda is a bit £££££££ And been told their not great actually delivering stuff.

Fly eyes hmm google fly eye kits, there's a recent thread on them here

having some uprated bushed fitted tommorow [+mot] not bothered about strut braces really dont make a noticeable difference on a family hatchback emoticon-0136-giggle.gif ... had hid kit on old car wasnt overally impressed really, sound system is a big no no nowadays i used to do 'big' systems when i was young but im a family man and passed all that now...[ i think] emoticon-0136-giggle.gif

I'd like to stick a sub in the boot but not sure my dog would like being tied to a roof rack.

I'm not a fan of the alloys? What collies u got ?

I will have a look around for those handles on ebay.... think it was on the German version, not UK but don't let that put you off, they are usually good to deal with and often arrive quicker than UK stuff!

whenever im bored i look at porn

cheers ill av a look, tbh id always thought of tinting lights as being a bit 'boy racer' but from what ive seen on here they look ok on the front, still wouldnt do the rears tho i dont think emoticon-0148-yes.gif

What about doing a stealth ICE install, you don't need a sub to put the standard system in the shade. Just get a new head unit, replace the existing speakers and you'll have something that sounds loads better than before.
