Picked this VRS up a few weeks back.
Nice car all around.
55 plate with 21k on the clock.

Just dropped it off at the bodyshop this morning for a few touches, smooth boot and subtle tints.

Tried the Borbets on for size this morning, look ok, needs down a bit, thats in the near future.

A few simple mods so far, de-badged, borbets, S2000 ariel, leather. Ordered my reto fit blades too. Watch this space.

Plans : Get it lower, de-badged grill (or code it), front lights black, rear lights black (the white part, leave the red), remove the bumpstrips, pressed plates. Then see how it goes from there.

Little shoot this morning...

Leather looks nice, debadging makes it looks nice and clean.

Wheels don't suit at all atm imo, but you're gonna lower a lot I assume?

VRS 203 · 27-01-2008, 14:30

Some more.

Really like the seats. Don't like the alloys though, never been a fan of that style though.

You dont like the wheels, or the stance?
Yeah its going down soon, in the next few months i think.

john_grant358 · 27-01-2008, 14:32

Im not a fan of the alloys, the person who does your MOT wont be either i dont think!

Thats what the steelies are for!

john_grant358 · 27-01-2008, 14:47

LOL, good man!

skudmissile · 27-01-2008, 16:22

I like the borbet A's.

Was looking at some form my mk2 but i went for the T's instead. and went for a 15 inch rim

skodastream · 27-01-2008, 16:26

will be lovely when slammed

good work so far. where did u get your wipers from in the end?

VRS 203 · 27-01-2008, 16:52

Got them from wiperblades.co.uk.

Alloys are not to everyones taste i see, but i like them, will get the centres coded black and flush centre caps.

Cheers.

skodastream · 27-01-2008, 17:08

cheers VRS 203 - and yep you are right about wheels. If we all liked the same world would be dead boring

PaulC · 27-01-2008, 17:38

Cars looking good, I am too not sure about the wheels and plod will like them if they stick outside the width of the car, I am not sure if flared arches would solve that though.

Petr · 27-01-2008, 17:47

nice car mate, I do like those wheels

chris_newell41 · 27-01-2008, 18:50

the bumper on the polo looks awful...I hope thats not yours. although from looking at the wheels on the VRS I am not too confident of a negative.

rongagain · 27-01-2008, 18:58

I think the wheels look far too wide for the tyres, the tyres looked very stretched.

What width are the wheels?

Leather is nice.

I meant that atm it doesn't fit the car at all.

But once lowered/slammed it would be alot better.

What bumper? its my mates polo, he just got 16v bumpers on it and smoothed, nicest polo about in my oppinion.

Im not really sure what you mean by the comment on the VRS.

Leather is nice.

The tyres were fitted with a large streatch in mind.

7.5's front 9's on the rear.

215/40's on the rear.
195/45's on the front.

damo :-) · 27-01-2008, 20:38

Nice car you got there

Have to agree with some of the others comments, lovely alloys...but dont particularly think they suit the fabia though. but thats just my opinion, if you like them thats all that matters

Love the seats...not envious...much!

Seems like you have loads of plans for it, will be interesting to see the outcome

Keep up the good work

oilburninnut · 27-01-2008, 20:43

only a couple of comments,nice car,but........get it slammed,then it will look awesome

stuart_hatch · 27-01-2008, 22:46

This will pass its mot, as the tyre thread is within the arch, as long as the tyres dont foul the arch, its legal

nickl0 · 27-01-2008, 23:18

Once lowered it'll look great, and I love the rims. Stretched tyres are the way forward.

Mossman · 28-01-2008, 00:20

Seats

Alloys and wheels on the car IMHO

But as someone else said, if you like it, that is great!

Martin|G|Allen · 28-01-2008, 09:38

Nice car - but you'll want to remove your number plate from the picture... otherwise it'll be on eBay from some fraudulant seller.
