Revo stage 1 was done couple of years ago now, and lockdown means I need a project so thought I’d make my Superb a bit more fun.

 

The other day I fitted the R600 intake with foam filter option. I wasn’t expecting much but it sounds meatier and whilst I’m not too sure about power it certainly feels smoother at least, especially whilst going through the gears which feels much much better to drive. As you know the 220 comes with terribly designed bent tipped hidden exhausts for no apparent reason, but since the intake upgrade the car is producing some nice muted DSG farts which aren’t loud or stupid...but the exhausts are hidden so it’s all wrong in my head lol

 

So I’ve also ordered the Rieger rear skirt in gloss black, bolts and washers, 2 exhaust connectors (similar to the VAG ones that clamp the Superb exhaust together between cat and mid-silencer) and a couple of  black oval Scirrocco R style exhaust tips.

 

My plan is to get rid of the bent down tips and fit the exhaust tips, neatly tucked into the Rieger skirt, not hanging down or sticking out. I saw the exhausts thread that someone had lowered their back boxes by an inch or 2 with longer bolts, then fitted tips. It’s a really simple idea and once I know it all works for the 220 I will post all the parts I used, measurements and everything.

 

For now I’ve just ordered everything I need, but the 2 main components are pictured....let me know what you think

 

I’ve not received the exhaust tips yet but I’ve done the diffuser, tinted reflectors and black badging also 15mm eibach spacers which have honestly transformed the steering feel. The Superb feels like a big cruise ship without stabilisers, but after adding a bit of stance it feels much more solid and confident

 

I also chose some completely out-there red carbon DSG paddles, they feel amazing and work very well. I know they’re bright but I needed something colourful in there... 🙄

 

Added some photos 👍

Ha! They look like they were supplied by the Devil, himself!  😀

I see you've gone for the 2020 look on the front foglights 👍

You're tempting me to get black paddle shifters, and I do like the rear black badges and glossy diffuser. I want one but with a cutout for my towbar.

I've bought some black plasti dip to play with to do the badges and door handles and maybe some stripes somewhere.

Keep up the good work DE - it's always interesting to see owners play around with things to get the results they want.

Cheers, sounds good about the plastidip...would like to see the results!

 

The fog frames were from Superskoda, messy to fit (black glue) but once done they look pretty good I think. 
 

I’d like to find a rear Skoda badge to match the front one I have but not sure if they’re the same size/angle etc. 
 

I’ve got a load of black wrap so I’m thinking of finishing off with a “black pack” to cover all the remaining exterior chrome and possibly the door mouldings? Not sure what they’re called....those sticky out bits at the bottom of the doors 😂 if it looks crap I’ll peel it off again

I’m lazy.... these bits!

Not sure about the wrap on the doors, but the quality of your CCTV is amazing!

I changed them both (bought from Superskoda), front and rear are different

Thanks for the confirmation, I did order the black rear badge but they cancelled as they were out of stock 😫

I really like the black & white front badge I have, might try some intricate wrapping to match them up

Thanks for that!

On your white Superb it matches perfect that black & white badge!

It’s actually moon white metallic to match the car (not that it matters, basic white would look good I guess) but Superskoda sell them in most paint codes 😊

I bought it like that from Rieger, I think they do gloss black and matte (bare plastic).

 

They do 4 versions in each I think:

1) 220bhp version like mine with no visible tailpipes; sensor holes and new sensor  brackets included.

2) same as above but with tow bar hole precut

3) Same as 1) but 4x4 (visible tailpipes) version

4) Same as 2) but 4x4 (visible tailpipes) version

Speaking of which would anyone think an emblem with a red background would look good on a white car... sort of a vampire/devil touch?

I'm also mulling putting another bit of lettering on my already chock full of lettering boot.  I have Skoda, Superb, and 4x4.  Was thinking of getting TDI and putting to the left of the 4x4.

i went for black and white to match the rest but would like to see a white car with devilish details 👹 I reckon it’d look good

I had Skoda on the left with the Revo plus badges underneath, and Superb on the right with TSI underneath. It looked a bit busy, and I think it’s classier to keep people guessing 😆

I finished this a couple weeks back so I’ll get a photo or 2 and confirm the parts soon for anyone interested. 
This whole mod (or whole car) may be available soon as per this thread.

 

Got a photo from my cctv because I’m lazy...

Excuse the dirty arse

This is the way cars should be modded - subtle and classy! OEM+

 

Did you get the rear Skoda and Superb badges from Superskoda? I have a Meteor grey Sportline with the black front badge and want to get rid of the chrome badges on the rear. I noticed they are now selling both the Skoda badge and now the Superb badge in black though I worry they are different finishes.

Thanks, I’m really happy with it. The badges are from Superskoda yes, the Skoda badge is slightly bigger but it doesn’t matter to me. Finish is identical. I would like to finish it with a rear Skoda emblem that matches my front one (moon white metallic and black) but I’m not sure if they are the same fitment/size. Superskoda don’t sell a rear one 😞

 

Also the tinted reflectors were from Superskoda.

 

Better photo attached

Also I have some better looking and legal number plates on the way, had these on ages but got stopped last week, had a friendly chat (not sarcasm) and said I’d sort them 👍
