Brimma's JPS Octavia (updated to 03.08.16) - new stripes

[Brimma]

Pictures really don't do this car justice, has to be seen to be truly appreciated.

Always thought it looked great but after seeing it up close, its stunning and the attention to detail is amazing.

 

The best encouragement I could get, Davie, thanks

Truly unique, but one thing puzzles me -why have you left the VW logo on the steering wheel and not coloured it gold?

Fair point, might have to work on that

I love the seats. They look brilliant. The jps theme has been pulled off perfectly. Well done Bryan

The seats were a great find, and I was very lucky to get them, but it's a fair way short of perfection............especially when you look at properly modded cars (Korban's, for example, to name but one)

Interior LEDs make such a massive difference. 

[Brimma]

Rear LEDs

 

 

 

Boot LEDs (replacement light units, not unsightly LED strips cobbled together)

 

 

 

Door light LEDs

Looks great Bryan. Your interior is fantastic

[octydsg]

Did you fit the paddles? or did you always have paddles in?

Did you fit the paddles? or did you always have paddles in?

Paddles were a retrofit with the Golf Mk5 steering wheel - also required a new slip ring and control unit

[Brimma]

19 x 8s will be paying a visit sometime soon, and possibly not even gold

 

[Zuhayb]

Any clue to what wheels you'll be fitting?

[Brimma]

Large 'rays' of sunshine  

[Zuhayb]

Hhhmmm...Large 'rays' of sunshine? Guess I'll have to look it up

[Brimma]

I'm crap at keeping secrets

[RobClubley]

Oo, pretty!

[Brimma]

Should look OK on black

 

[Dark_Hero]

Ooh interesting. Will you need to rethink the jps theme?

Not necessarily, Charlie

 

I'll see what they look like up against the car, then maybe get a quote to see how much it would cost to have just the front faces done gold

 

Keeping my options open, but don't want to lose the JPS base

A quick question brimma, how did you get the door card strips painted? Do they remove or do you have to mask the door card up and spray that way? I can't find a way to remove them.

Also the car is looking great. Really individual.

Thanks, you're too kind  

 

The trims are actually wrapped

 

Some on here have managed to wrap them in place, I actually removed the doorcards, and cut the plastic rivets off the back to remove the trims, then stuck them back in place with double-sided tape

[Zuhayb]

Ohhhhh they look Gert Lush I love the look at those bad boyz.

That's a good plan. Would be a shame to lose the look. It's a brisky icon.

If you do get the face done can you get a gold tire paint to highlight the brand etc? Or is that a bit overkill

Uniroyal Rainsport 3s 225/35/19 will probably be going on, so maybe not worth picking them out
