MrSloanes Posted May 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Thought I would whop the pics me and jack took at the weekend up.Debating what to do with my wheels. Fancy something a little smaller but not sure. Trying on some mk5 gti Montreal wheels at the weekend. See what I think of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mphgoose Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Great pics dude personally i think slightly smaller rims would suit it a bit more and make it look a lot lower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSloanes Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Wellllllll been a while but I got rid of the bora and gOt one of these:1.4 100bhp Fabia for a bargain price. 2 owners 91k miles. Coilovers ordered, looking for vrs front end, not sure on wheels yet tho. Needs a good clean so will update soon.

MrSloanes Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hey joti yes I am indeed. I generally don't talk or think much I just do instead lol. Never owned a red car myself so should be interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arosaproject Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Nice cars, i saw around a year ago a fabia, with just wheels and coils going round a track at ppc show, it was passing every thing, so when it did come in i had a look, had a 306bhp tdi in it, it was crazy but from the outside you hadnt a clue lol think it was iver a passat or transporter engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElZ 16v Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 my mate has a fabia but the 100 or 110bhp diesel and put the front an rear bumper off a vrs on it they look good with no spoiler i thuink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSloanes Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Yeah think I'm going to try to find a vrs front and back bumper like. Not easy to find ones from a 2001 mk1 but not sure if there is any difference in the later model vrs ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElZ 16v Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 i could ask my mate for you if you want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSloanes Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Yeh please bud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSloanes Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Well, busy trying to snipe some wheels for the fabia on ebay. they are audi pepperpots which are only 15" and i know a lot of people will say they will look lost in the arches but im hoping with some major lows and a nice low profile or stretched tyre ill be able to pull them off. After all my other plan was 15" banded steelies anyway but due to baby needing some bits and bobs my budget has been slashed lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElZ 16v Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 will do.. my mate had 16x8 an 16x9 bandeds on his looked smartpepperpots are smart tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Looks pretty tidy mate, take it the engine's the same as the Lupo sport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSloanes Posted June 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I would imagine so. Not as nippy as my mates lupo sport however it's a lot heavier tbf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSloanes Posted June 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 Not much of a update really but the paint was a bit too faded for my liking and the tar all over was doing my tits in so i whopped out the machine polisher. Here are the results. (Pardon the wheel trims that are different on each side lol)Fitted some aero wipers which were on the Lurosa and the Bora and now the Fabia.Also waiting on some deliveries of:Coilovers LED Fog light bulbsBeesting aerialLED Registration bulbsAudi PepperpotsSome 195/45/15 tyres for the pepperpots.
