What size alloys / tyres setup have you got, All the best alloys seem to be listed as either (17x8) for tyres 215/45 /17 or they are (18x8) for tyres 215/40/18

What rim size is yours ? thanks

Ok found them 35R?

The mudflaps do finish them off don't they? I fitted some to mine within a week of having the car!

 

Your car is starting to look smart

Yeah its getting better step by step . That previous owner didnt care for it much... 

Bought it quite cheap . 11.000 euros in total . Incl that 5g from my other fabia . So 6000€ actually paid .. 

Had 38000km . Oz rims . Stage 2 

Millteck catback . Bmc airfilter etc... 

Bargain dont u think ? :)

Yeah not bad that.

 

Mine too was cheap £4500 for a 2010 car, pretty much standard but had an exhaust on it, custom one.

 

Find a good one and you are sorted.

im going to tackle that messed up diffusor tomorrow 

ill post pictures of it . ive read in some other threat that its gluued and plastic welded on... and that u need to buy a new bumper  therefor ill first try to get that diffusor off and repair it with plastic putty and a lick off black paint... then reinstall it with hotglue and some plastics fixall... 

I've got a spare Monte Carlo bumper, I tried to remove the rear diffuser but failed basically.

 

The side trims came off ok but the main bottom one is stuck on pretty well!

From where did you buy the ornament for the spoiler?

I haven't seen one with a hole in the middle until now.

Great effort, your right about removing the diffuser, the VRS one isn't bad to remove but the Monte Carlo one is solid.

 

Gloss black wouldn't look right either, mat looks better :)

That will be a project in the coming week. And sort out how to actually remove the charger cover .. its stuck in there . Even did try to break it but from underneath my car i cant get much force.. also noticed coolant and oil drips ... ill check it out too

Just drove a little and omg removing that sound proofing is totally worth it ! 

Check out that coolant drips, because the Water Pump might need changing and that is also the magnetic clutch for the supercharger.

I have a thread started with the part numbers including seals and replacement belts in the Fabia section.

 

EDIT,

i bumped the Supercharger Insulation removal thread,

just shout if you need part numbers on the water pump and can not find them.

i used a soldering iron to melt the plastic cover in half to remove it as it just doesn't phiscally come through the gap you have i did start with a dremel but it was taking forever
