Boring Beige 1.2 Fabia project

Featured Replies

Had this car for over a year and just getting round to making it a bit more fun, added new head unit and rear speakers, away to upgrade front door speakers soon. Just fitted the 15" golf mk4 alloys and away to fit 30mm lowering springs start of next week, not sure what else I'll do but can't see it being anything drastic

Colour code chrome grill piece of plastidip?

Side trims remove if you're after smoother finish as do all badges apart from Skoda ones which could be upgraded if you prefer newer ones

I've ordered the new style Skoda Badge for grill and boot, already got them fitted as alloy centre caps, will debadge everything else if not paint the Fabia sign black.

I've done projects in the past with a mk6 fiesta and a mk4 golf gti, not sure if I can go through all the headache again doing major mods

Colour was obviously not what drew me to the car, the 26,500 on the clock for a 56 plate sold me it haha!

Yeah I do miss those wheels

Same car as me [emoji38] just mine isn't exactly standard now.

Tomorrow I will be removing all door cards for my 3rd attempted at sealing the door carriers from the dreaded water leaking in

My front speakers have also arrived so will be fitting them at same time, if I'm feeling better that is

I like the mk4 wheels suit it well :)

Before the rain came on had another go at sealing my rear door, also replaced boot and grill badges with the new ones
