New boy. Ibiza Mods bumpers etc help!!

[EvilKinevil]

:) Needing sum help here, please.
Had my ibiza 4, 6 months now. Happy with it but now its time to start modding a little. Car, 1995 Ibiza 2.0 GTi 8v (N)
Right. I wanna change the bumpers from the stock to a cupra style or later style. I have seen an r reg biza with smoother bumpers (facelift?) which look better than mine. Can i just buy later bumpers and they will fit on? Same type of question, saw a cupra standerd "body kit" on ebay which looked similar, could i just buy it and it WILL fit strieght on??
also colour, my biza is red, is it true there is only shade of red that biza's come in, if i'm buyin bumpers/kit i want them factory coloured so I don't have to spray them! ( had bad experiences with sprayshops) :-o
Any reccomendations where to get the parts??

Cupra badges? How much do they cost from the dealers??

Any suggetions for mods?. Got 16" OZ superT's on and gettin -40mm drop eibach springs nxt wk, also got supersprint backbox so far. anything elce you guys have tried/tested and reccomend would be greatfully recieved :thumbup:

Car is an everyday workhorse but i want it to look smart, so far have had a few problems, which have been rectified. Central locking (aggah) Back box (FCUK!!)


Cheerz for any reply's :cheers:

Further handling mods - try some arbs; cosmetic stuff try some TT pedals, chrome door pulls, chrome speedo rings, mirrors, colour coded skirts and GTI splitter; under the bonnet a simple change of filter or induction kit with cold air feed. Should find plenty more searching for those too.

bumpers aint that easy to swap straight over.
i have a facelift rear bumper on my car which roughly fits straight on.
but the front bumper is still sat on my bedroom floor. tried to fit it but i need to either swap all the wings and headlights and indicators or try and bodge it on some how.

Thanx for the replys, anymore would be greatfully recieved.


last week I got a set of lockwood white dials, just recieved them in the post, has any1 attempted to fit these before? and if so how easy is it? (for an amiture) really like the look of them, BUT don't fancy ripping my dash to bits or taking the steering wheel off!? would it be a job for my garage? :confused:

cheerz for any info :cheers:

i found it v easy to add facelift bumpers to pre face lift car ASLONG as u have all the mounts

You can get your clocks through the hole in the steering wheel! done it myself, only 3 screws then!

Also the 1997 spec bumpers are really easy to fit on a 1995 car!

how do i go about fitting the front bumper? what extra bits do i need?

Ebach springs fitted today, they are the dogs dangley bits!!!, car turns, and handles much better than i ever expected.

went to fit the lockwood dials today, took everything apart then realised i had the wrong ones DOH!! :confused: so they gotta go back

bought a richbrook gear surround during the wk, looks smart, :censored: to fit properly, but it's on an "blingin" any1 going to buy this, be warned it's made of plastic, not as i thought metal.

Quite fancy a pair o them door openers.
any more suggestions for mods?
is there any specific seat only breakers around? I have a hunger for new bumpers an skirts

off tae the pub :cheers:
