Hey all! 

 

New to the forum but thought I'd start a build thread for my Fabia! Bought it as an economical car after having Land Rovers for a few years and I must say... I'm loving it!! 

 

Current mods are AP coilovers, Remap and smoked lights. Not sure what to do with the wheels, thinking of keeping the standard alloys and having them sprayed. I toyed with the idea of banded steels but them seem pretty expensive. 

 

Anyway on with the car! 

 

Here it is 

 

And a funky little air freshener

 

 

 

However, sadly she is in the garage at the moment as the turbo has gone pop :(

 

Should be back on the road by Wednesday though  

Seeing yours slammed on the standard wheels silver makes me want to go back silver on mine from anthracite. Are you going standard turbo or uprated?

Gone standard turbo again mate, but a garret unit instead. Going from a Landy to the Fabia it already feels like a rocket ship! 

So a little update! 

 

The Fabia is now back on the road after having a new garret turbo fitted to it! Took advantage of a tiny bit of sun today to give it a clean. 

 

 

I think its time to start coming up with some plans for the wheels

Looks a nice example, love the air freshener.

Looking good. How much was the garret turbo? Really need to get my ass in gear and do my wheels silver again

Thanks @redcupraboy, I had to get something a bit special I wanted a game of thrones start direwolf one but couldnt find one :(

 

@Kyle_Vrs sadly, it cost me over £600! has a warranty and stuff on the turbo and work now though so feeling a bit better about boosting it! 

 

As for the wheels, Im tempted to have them sprayed white, but not sure if it might be a tad too much. 

Also might loose the light tint, as when driving around at night the other day found out I couldnt see for buttons.
