View Full Version : D17KDB's Ibiza Cupra R (Update on page 6)
Here is some pic's of my cupra R. I only got it last Saturday. The car is not staying like this. I'm going to put the body kit back to standard and get a full respray at the same time. Getting the alloys refurb at the mo. But thinking about changing them. I do not like the kit that is on it.
But let me know what you all think.

Agreed. Should be alright when it's back to standard. I'd probably change the wheels to, but that's my opinion.
Is this the one with the Ko4 that was on pistonheads?

thank christ i saw your going to put it back to standard or you were in for an almighty slagging mate. he he. will look far far better standard, there was even a set of brand new still in the box standard oz superturismo's ( old and best style ) in the for sale section, not sure if they're away or not though.

It could be worse mate but hey atleast under all the chavness you got a cracking car. The wheels will do for now until you find out what you like

Yip it is the one off pistonheads with the ko4 turbo in it.

That looks pretty crap it must be said! The previous owner did a great job of ruining a rare - decent car!
Crikey, that is bad.
I wouldn't even have it out on the road until i had restored it to its former glory at least.
Good car that you've got there though. :D

Once it goes back to standard you will get alot more positive comments!!! Good starting point tho with the K04 fitted....just dont know what runs threw people's head when they put these awful kits on cars :D
get that baby back to standard!! my only worry would be how its been driven, if its been allowed to warm up cool down etc etc ragged endlessly, but hopefully you can save it :D

sorry mate i wasnt being serious. i think the kit is hideous i just wondered what people would say about a 1.4 owner asking for the kit.
im glad your seeing your cupra r returned to its former glory.

I thought u would have came back with " I will give u a bottle of IRN-BRU and a twix for the kit" or something like that lol.
I myt see if any1 wants it or i will just bin it. Where the kit belongs lol
not joking but if you lived closer i would take it off your hands and customise the kit to make it less chavy. would ateka while with that lot though! h
have you thought about ebay? might get a few quid for it! i mean some one sold an LCR splitter on ebay the other day for over £70!!! (£20 in seat dealer)

Having fun smashing it up would be the most viable option for you (really it would be selling it and making a few bob)

I quite liked it with the kit on, just would of preferred the mesh in black and something different done with the front grill.
Don't think those OZ wheels on it suit it tho.
Each to their own and all that!

Well i was meant to be getting my car back 2day all finished. But when i phoned them. Then went in. They were having trouble getting my front bumper to fit. They think my front bar bit has been moved slightly. So they ar going to have to move it about to try and get everything to fit.
So i do not know when i will be getting my car back now [:@]
I was meant to be going down to Donny 08 this weekend to and pick up some Alloys on the way. But that not happening now ether :censored::censored::censored:[:@][:@][:@]
