So they do exist Gav. It would have to be a Skoda UK genuine accessory for me though.

On another subject what clearance in mm is your outer tyre to wheel arch? Just trying to decide what drop to go for. Thanks.

I think there genuine, however the company's abroad. I had a quick look on eBay an theres a couple steering wheels but over 300 quid.

I'll get the tape measure out tomorrow and have a look.

Mine has finally arrived at the dealer today. Sadly I can't get down to collect it until Oct 18th

Eibachs got ordered today!

Nice one Jon, what drop have you gone for? That's a massive wheel arch gap on the front in that pic!

Yeah I suspect it's still got the transport blocks in the springs. It had just come off the truck in that pic.

I just ordered the part number I was given! I think it gives a 30mm drop. E10-79-010-04-22

I want to get some spacers sorted as well, but I need to find out which width to go for front and rear.

I've been given that part number by Simpsons Skoda for my BE hatch for a drop between 30 and 40mm at the front and 30mm at the rear. I'm considering 10mm spacers for the rear so I would be interested to see what look you achieve.

Ohhh a actual black black edition! What engine and box you go for? Found flat bottomed MFSW on another foreign site, whys no one stocking them in the UK?! A gap in the market to exploit....

2.0tdi with the DSG. I'd ordered the manual but the build date was pushed further and further back.

I can't see much difference between an expensive black edition fabia and a monte carlo in black, not worth the £5000 extra. I'd rather buy a 6-12 month old fabia monte and save thousands. sat nav and different seat colour maybe.
