I have recently ordered a Vrs Estate in candy white but the wife has decided that black would be better...

I have ordered the black neptunes and wonder if anyone could photoshop the neptunes black on a black Vrs...? The car will be getting the accessory Eibachs fitted at the dealer.

I quite like the look of this non FL Vrs

Mmmmmm nice hearse, I can see why Brimma went for the gold touch.

non oe wheels and a splitter, but Todd's wagon is black with black - looks very nice:

Thanks Rob, I have seen many a pic of that wagon

Order now updated to black and I will find out what it looks like with black neptunes in about 10 weeks!

Finally my car has been seen , im not the first to do all black but pleased with end result will be lowering it soon not sure 20 or 30mm?

Have you got and pics?

There are lots of suspension threads to give you ideas. e.g. http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/233285-vrs-lowering/page__pid__2739056#entry2739056

I am going with the accessory ones (to keep the warranty) which I think are 30mm.

No worries. Post some pics when you get it.

IMO you'll need to colour code the grille too, otherwise that will be the only non-black on the car and will not really fit very well.

Colour code grille works really well on black I think:

Will do, plan to get one of the superskoda front grilles colour coded

Just arrived at the dealer, and I am pretty chuffed (except for the ride height which will be sorted before registration). A few key rap iPhone pics

Looks very nice, good luck keeping it clean!

Looks great, you must have found the only dealer that still had some Eibachs left! They were discontinued about 18 months ago

Love the stripes.

Needs some gold

Thanks! The springs were no problem, I gave them the part number from the online accessories catalogue and they ordered them in (ZGB1Z3071677)

I could only find springs for the Fabia vRS when I last looked on there for a friend

Yep, definitely prefer my colour coded grille, especially as it's an exact match in gloss and not matt.

Very nice indeed, but it looks plain (sorry)

I myself would do 2 things.

One tint the windows

Two paint grey/silver the roof rails.(good contrast)

Lovely looking car mate, do the dealers still do these? Also if you don't mind me asking how much was it for them and fitting? As wouldn't mind my octavia doing either as think thats all it needs after iv had my grill done.

Cheers Rob, fitted and 4 wheel alignment wasnt cheap at £460... Butthe letter saying it wouldn't affect the warranty of the car and the springs having their own warranty was worth the extra loot over an independent in my book.

Loving the red on black

I should have said that included supply
