fabia vrs black magic 2003

Featured Replies

thought i would put a few pics up of my little run around. now i know it wont all be to everyones taste but hey-ho! i brought the car back in dec 2009 with 120ish k on the clock, its now just over 142k and the car hasnt missed a heartbeat (touch wood). i must confess i have a bit of an addiction to modifying my car (the car went from standard to what now is shown before you in under 2 weeks!!)

spec as follows

160bhp re map

jom coil overs

front strut brace

smoked indicators

front color coded grill (done since pictures taken)

led interior lights and number plate lights

white compomotive th 1680 with yokohoma s drive 195 45 16 tyres

soon to come modifications include

arch rolling

full cloth re trim on interior

full polybush from front to back

F&R ARB

braided break lines

FMIC

re map to 190ish BHP

upgraded clutch

bigger turbo

that is all i can think of for now. i will stand back and admire my car others may dislike it so hence why its a bit like marmite, each to their own right?! :D

hopefully see some of you briskodians on my travles :D

but for now i will be giving my marmite a much needed full service and a bit of tlc

as new mods are made i will update

enjoy

Ben

nice vrs like the white rims :thumbup:

Hmm, not sure what to make on the wheels.

Definitely different though emoticon-0148-yes.gif

Also someone has taken the Fabia and vRS badge off at one point, and stuck a new one on... in the wrong place

Reminds me how much I love white wheels :thumbup:

and how much i hate compomotives :thumbdown:

Looks clean and tidy though and good to hear its running sweet with so many miles on it.

What's the relevance of the number plate?

What's the relevance of the number plate?

I had to double take when I first saw it.

Anyone who knows Mr Brimma... this is almost identical

My initials are BMR. It was my 18th birthday present from my beloved parents apparently I needed a kiss? I'm getting some pressed german style plates for it soon. I was never really a fan of the euro look but well...... I guess things change and as for the badge I never noticed that before!!! Great observation skills I will look it up now to see where it's supposed to go, but then I also didn't notice that I had a knife sticking out my arm once until it was pointed out by the police after an attack ...... So yeah im not really that observant o.0

Just seen where it's suppose to go. What plonker done that I wonder?!?! I'm not sure wether to leave it, put it in the right place or take it off all together?

take it off alltogether imo also wheels looks nice somthink different to what im used to seeing keep us updated

I actually like it the wheels are different and I quite like the location of the fabia badge

This is a beauty! I'm not too keen on the alloys usually but they look surprisingly good on that! Nice work :)

Looks sweet! I'm not usually a fan of compomotive mono's but I think they look nice.

Keep up the good work :thumbup:

Them wheels are sweeeeeeetttttt.....

I have love for this car...

I think the wheels make the car :)

Love it !

A small dislike if I may but a very petty one. You can get white valves and valve caps for the wheels B)

when i next have a tyre change i may consider this however hopefully my tyres wont burn out this quick ...... i had a brand new set of falkens 912's i think at end of november, by end of dec they were all bold on the inside ( it was munching front tyres like it was no ones business) these wheels come up with brand new tyres so instead of buying four new tyres to replace the falkens i spent a bit more and got the alloys. NGL i have a thing for the compomotives, i always have and im not shamed to admit it o.0 so what more could i want .... a set of wheels iv always dreamed of with new tyres and a nice bit of stretch .... or 3points for each bold tire, a fine and a loss of driving licence. i have since had 4 wheel laser alignment which highlighted a few um issues, that have now been corrected and hey presto a month of driving (about 1.5-2k miles) the tyres still look new with no uneven wear. hoorahhhhhhhhh

just orderd some new headlight dipped beam and also some new W5W sidelights, in the next few weeks i will be looking into forge FMIC, SMF and uprated clutch as i look for 200BHP along with a different turbo, but for now im having the cambelt change done at 142 k along with a full service and some body work touch ups.
