Hi all

I've only been a member for a week now so thought I post a pic up of mt Fabia VRS that I've just bought

Its a 2005 model with 61k on the clock

Here's a pic of it as it is now

Will post further pics towards the end of next week when I have done a few things I've got planned

comments welcome

Looks very clean, what's your plans?

Very nice. Get some colour coded door handles first

welcome!

Well it's getting a wheel refurb on Saturday and changing the colour of them to anthracite, also getting spoiler sprayed as the lacquer has all peeled. Going in for a full service and cambelt on Monday, then end of next week it's coilovers and cat back system

Any ideas how much silver handles are and where from? I can only see 2 on eBay and they are £30 each!!!

I think I paid £40 for mine (admittedly they are black magic) from a member on here.

The handles from the octavia fit and I'm pretty sure that they are the same as found on mk4 golf and possibly 9n/9n3 polo. Just make sure that they are the correct paint code.

I know that my set were from a VW.

Alternatively you can have your original handles painted.

Anthracite wheels are the ticket on silver; the fastest colour

I had mine painted, cost me £60.... much nicer IMO

Love the wheels - don't let a police officer see that number plate though, it'll cost you!

Is it odd that I prefer the black handles on them?? Lol

quick question...

what is the skoda term for this colour silver??

IIRC diamond silver dude : )

What did you use on your headlights to make them darker? I'm going to spray my grille black today too

My spoiler did the same thing when you get that sprayed get your handles done to if you take them off yourself and give the a quick scotch over who eva is spraying the spoiler should lash them for next to nout u will find the more prep work you do the Cheeper it will be as prep work is the thing that takes time when it comes to spraying bits of cars

Stu

Thanks mate

I'll see if he can do them on Saturday for me

Has the car been lowered?

Are you talking about mine or gobsheene's?

Mine isn't lowered

Coilovers being fitted next week

I am on about yours. Yours looks lowered to me

Nope completely standard

Sure?

Yes I'm sure lol

It's just the picture

OK, alright. I'd still look at those springs though lol

Lol I will now you've said that

Just checked... All standard

The Eibach lowering spring looks pretty much the same as the OE one, except the Eibach's have very small Eibach wording on them, but that's it

Here's a std height one. Yours does look lowered :think:
