Toast's Octy MkI vRS

Featured Replies

Been on here awhile but only got around to joining the Freedom members recently so I thought i'd add my car here!

I'm a student so there is not much money to go into the car but I get by.

Here is the day after I bought the car

I didn't have much plans for it as I was broke so it didn't get its first proper clean till the summer.

Cleaned and changed the plate font.

So on the cheap (free :giggle:) I started with some small visual mod's as I like oem.

Wrapped the grille inserts.

I started going a bit ott with the wrapping and eventually ended with this.

Wrapped the main grille, added the lcr splitter and painted the wheels Puegeot Graphite Grey.

During the winter I got some money and found a set of Beetle Steelies so decided to rock the "German Winter Look" as I like to class it.

Got some AP Coilovers, and slammed it on the beetle steelies.

While the winter wheels were on it decided I didn't like the colour of the wheels so I went for a Satin Pewter Gunmetal finish.

Spiders back on and Lamin-Xed the headlights, rear indicator and reverse lights.

I'm not sure about the Lamin-x but ill see if it grows on me!

Here are some of the more subtle mod's I done.

A few new updates

Got a Superb Cat-vision centre light and spray it a dark satin colour to get it matching the rest as best I could.

Really changes the feel of the lighting at night while driving and red really goes well.

Colour match isn't perfect but its better than cream!

Also fitted the rear interior lights I colour matched them too.

Also refitted a Parrot CK3100 that I got with the car in (I feel) a better place than squashed under the air vents.

And for my favourite change so far a set of these!

The sacrafice that has to be made with these seats is well worth it. You loose a back seat belt and this
