Ok I have several questions which you guys will no doubt be able to answer.

I have an 06 Fabia vRS, standard as the day it left the factory. It now has 30k on the clock and I'd love to spice it up a little. My questions are:

*Is it still worth chipping at that sort of mileage? Anyone got experience of this who'd like to share the wisdom (where to go, where to insure, how much to pay, what bhp to go for)?

* What's the deal with fitting 17" Octavia wheels? Does this affect handling, speedo reading etc...?

* Where can I get a black (the car is black) grille surround, as opposed to the current chrome one?

I'd appreciate any input! Thanks.

1. Yes and have a look in the site sponsors section.

2. Speedo reading is make more accurate.

3. Paint it yourself.

* Where can I get a black (the car is black) grille surround, as opposed to the current chrome one?

I'd appreciate any input! Thanks.

Hi dp20 and welcome. I'm not very up on cars, but thinking your car might still be under warranty? There's a sticky somewhere on modding, but darned if I can find it...
