I think the 18s look better proportioned on the Octavia than the 19s. Looking great!

I've got that at the front now... But on the furby there seems more room inside the arch at the back, and as its a fixed axle, there's quite a lot of allowance for drop when fully loaded (for example with me carrying car boot sale stuff - thats a "to the roof" job, with no back seats in.

Gotta sort the front out though. On full lock there's just millimetres between tyre and arch.... So you can imagine what every bump does.

Nice wheels on the octy though.

Looks Good, Have you thought of a badgeless grill & colour coding the black strips on the side. IMO it would finish it a treat

I was going to de-badge the whole car but I don't want to give people the wrong impression...I aint ashamed that its a Skoda! Those that make jokes about skoda make me laugh now and really don't bother me because it just goes to show they know absolutely nothing about cars and the high standard that Skoda now represents. Also debadging the front grill looks a little odd as there is a circle left that clearly 'should' have a badge. Maybe I'll replace it with a 'vrs' badge eventually but for now I'll wear the skoda badge with pride!

I am hoping to have the black grill fins replaced with chrome mesh along with the bumber vents.

Colour coding/removing the bump strips is something I've been considering. Thats definately one for the future

Thanks for the replys so far guys
