Picked the car up on Sunday morning 25/9 and on Monday morning I changed the washer bottle cap to a black one and the wheel bolts covers to the vw star ones. Also changed some of the interior bulbs to led and just ordered some led courtesy lights for the doors and boot.

Interesting spec......have you got a project thread Alex? Would like to see more details

[LemonLime]

Does anyone know if adding body modifications affects the warrantee at all? I'm thinking of aftermarket front and rear diffusers.

[Arpido]

I'm thinking about the Spoiler Cap in Gloss black.  I think it's an alternative to removing the rear spoiler and getting it wrapped. 

 

Meteor Grey 230 with a  Panoramic Sunroof so I'm going to get the rest of the roof wrapped gloss black and a Black spoiler

My roof has wrapped, but I will be painted the spoiler to black magic, because it's hard to wrap at the ends. The heaviest thing is to remove the spoiler. :(

Upgraded the interior and number plate bulbs to LED (not cree, so just a nice clean white throw) which make a great difference.

 

The bulbs are too big for the boot and red door lights so I need to find some others. Just a shame I have a warning thrown up about the number plate bulbs!

What kind of bulbs do you have for number plate?

Had a hybrid turbo (Turbo Technics Revo) fitted a few weeks ago, running Revo Stage4 beta now, quick dyno run last week to get a rough idea of the current power:

 

 

Needs a bit more work lower down but once on boost goes quite well, will try to get a video at Bruntingthorpe later this week and post up.

Find someone nearby to use VCDS to code the bulbs properly, then no more warnings.

I've seen it.....170mph not bad for a Skoda

[Ant-Vrs]

I've fitted some oem skoda led number plate bulb/holder. It's got a nice classic look. But it brought up the bulb warning on the dash. How do I turn it off

Need to maybe code it out. I think I had to with mine.

As written already, you need to code it with VCDS/OBDeleven and change the license plate bulb code settings to "LED"

can you use vag com or has it got to be vcds

[Jaco2k]

They are exactly the same thing - VAGcom became VCDS, but if you are dealing with newer cars, only VCDS will cut it.

[pkoconnor]

Couldn't find many youtube videos of the Milltek Non-Resonated fitted to the Octavia so did a sample one.  It's taken about 500 miles to settle down as it was pretty loud at first but its sounds just right now.  

 

I don't think speakers do it justice but at least it's something.

Finally got around to spraying my badges black, chuffed with the looks but not sure it will last.

I also had a cheeky little underseat sub fitted a moth ago, it's not mega bass but it fills the gaps, for now...

Few more things planned now that things have calmed down for me and I have some cash.

What paint did you use for the badges mate?  And how do they look now?
