Hi guys

I brought a Fabia comfort 1.4 16v 100HP last year it was only £500 with 58,000 miles on an x reg which I thought was quite a bargain!

This is what it looked like to begin with

A bit of a grandad car! lol

before I passed my test I brought the VRS front and rear bumpers and a set of VRS alloys which I had powdercoated in black!

Then I brought the Interior and door cards for £140

After searching around for ages I eventually found a spoiler on ebay

So far I have added Octavia VRS alloys refurbed in white ( i did myself) with slightly stretched tyres

Cupra Splitter

JOM coilovers

mk2 VRS badges

Debadge in the tailgate

wheel spacers 20mm back 15mm front

TRS toe strap

fly eye headlights

lamin X blue fogs

interior vents sprayed white

tinted windows (i did myself)

micky mouse Induction kit/ram air

custom paint effect under front grill and on interior mirror

Good colour matching there. Did you do it yourself??

Is it black? Or green like the top pic.

They aren't the same car are they?

Did you get vRS interior as well?

So how did you come to have an '02' plate on an 'X' reg car?

Confused

Also confused by the thread title, as 'Wardy' has been a member on here for years

cheers I did it at my dads garage, its dark green but in real life its alot greener! lol Im going to take some proper photos on an SLR tommorow

haha Sorry its just a photo to show you what it looked like as I dont have any original photos of it

It's not the same Wardy, Keep up Bryan

It would have been an 02 plate to begin with the X plate will be a private one

Sorry guys im new to this I've buggered up the thread a bit Ive got alot more photos but they keep coming up as attachments! not showing as large pics like the others??

If you read the thread correctly, Mr G, you will note that the poster bought an 'X' reg car

Keep up :think:

He cleared this up in the post before yours...

The 02 plate was an example of what a standard green one looks like...

The x reg one is his...

And the dark one with black wheels in his with a filter on the picture.. poss negative effect??

Looks good anyway bud

Guessin there 195/40 tyres.. looks lower than alot of the real vrs ones on here

Looks lovely in that colour, prefered the dark wheels though sorry.

cheers mattvrestate yeah there just budget tyres, i wanted to get them more stretched but because there only 7j they look quite skinny from behind! thanks joe

I knew that, just seeing if Brimma did :think:

If I'd have decided to keep my vRS I was going to go for a dragon green

respray. I like it with the white details a lot. Nice work mate

Looks smart.

Looks quite tidy, I like the White interior trim bits.

One of the better 'lookey likey' fabia vRS's

Good work.

actually cant believe how smart that looks! not sure on the white inside but that just me lol well done!

Thanks everyone, it looks okay at the min but unfortunatly the power steerings gone which doesn't help when your driving with a broken arm! And the near side engine mounts gone!

I was thinking about doing the open mouth/big front grill, or smoothing it over, what do you think?

the only thing with the smoothed over one is I wouldnt know where to put the plate!?

^^ def smooth it m8.. big mouth will look daft without a fmic which yours obv dunt have lol

Either get a sticker plate like the bigmouth pic at the side... or do a jap style plate on a mounting infront of one of the fog light grills..

Im smoothing mine but my private plate is short + it fits nicely in the foglight surround bit so im guna put a bracket that makes it sit flush there

thats what I was thinking Ive got some fiber glass at work but not entirely shore how its done??

Great work and lookin good..... but remove the Vrs badge as it aint!

I stripped the bumper off yesterday to start attempiting to smooth over the front bumper, also I needed to fix/replace a few things

The bumper with the number plate holder off

the plate holder cut out

The plastic recess i cut out of an old bumper measured and cut to fit just need to plastic weld it in place

new discs and pads

all fitted! the pads and discs were knackered. ordering new bushes as there both perished making a load knocking when accelerating and decelerating, also a steering angle sensor.
