Yeah, not done anything to it since building my fabia. All time/effort has been on that.

I'll check out the fabia pip

Right then,here's my usual purge of pics,unfortunately in the same location as the car is still off the road and can't take it to a better location :(

Stickers are finished now so this is the finished article

Only remaining sticker which was overlooked was the Monte Carlo number box for the rear of the roof but I'll pop that on next week

So now I'm at the point where I'm not sure what to do with it,part of me wants to keep it and just leave it parked up in case I ever fancy doing something with it but when I get the replacement car I'm not sure I'll ever want to do anything with it as I'll be more interested in the new car but we'll see.

Epic!

Absolutely fantastic, looks awesome, well done mate!

Thanks for the comments guys,it's appreciated

And Trevor yes the vents are just fibreglass reps of focus Rs vents from ebay

And Dave the wheel arches are fibreglass jdm style jobbies off ebay again.

The arches needed a bit of filing down and don't fit great but it didn't matter to me as I screwed them on and used sealant to fill the gap were they meet the wheel arch as it was just the look I was after and wasn't overly bothered about them looking rough as the rest of the car is rough to be honest haha and dependant on how you fit them determines how much work is involved,I cut about 3" of the front arch lip off and bent up the rear arch lip for clearance

Awesome!

I hope you don't mind, but I've taken the liberty to save one or two of your pictures, because that is one of the best MK1 Octavia's I've seen!

That is way cool man

I'd rather not be on there to be honest lol,but I'll make an exception to have a quick look

Fantastic, your car looks like a proper Tarmac spec wrc.

If you can get some photographs in a more picturesque location then surely your car deserves a place in the 2017 briskoda calendar.
