Can't speak for Micky, I got mine at a special offer price from Dave at SERE Motors, he had about 15-20 if I remember correctly for £35 each plus P+P.
I've got pics of my before and afters in my RR. Although mine is on standard pre-facelift bumpers so not quite the same.

wasnt expecting that list of mods no u havnt had it long, glad i didnt try racing u the other night lmao there alot of work fitting the intercooler how much it cost for it and the pipes if u dont mind me being noisey?
Woah, I didn't realise how long it was since I last updated this thread, car has changed a bit since this, just taking these from other forums I have updated, so they might no make sense in some parts!
Here is a quick spec list of what it currently has:
Modifications:
- PD150 Turbo
- PD150 Injectors
- Seat Sport FMIC
- VR6 Uprated Clutch w/ G60 Flywheel
- Forge Boost Pipes
- Allard EGR Delete Pipe
- Milltek Turbo Back Exhaust (Non-Resonated)
- PD160 Intake
- Green Cotton Panel Filter
- Autotune Custom Map
- Vibratechnics RHS Engine Mount
- Superpro 70K Dog-Bone Mount
- Powerflex Front Wishbone Rear Bushes
- 17" Team Dynamics Pro Race 3 w/ Yokohama Parada S2 205/40
- AP Coilovers
- 20mm H&R Trax+ Hub-centric Spacers
- Stubby Aerial
- Seat Sport Front Strut Brace
- Forge Rear Strut Brace
- Whiteline Rear Anti-Roll Bar
- Sparco Leather Bucket Seats
- Custom Made Seat Mounts
- OMP Corsica Dished Steering Wheel
- Stripped Rear (Seats, Carpers, Belts, Plastics)
Here's a picture of how it sits at the minute..
When the wheels arrived, first things first is to get them sealed up.. Poorboys Wheel Sealant made it's appearance here..
Also couple of pictures of the seats...
OMP Corsica wheel, one of my cheapest but most favourite purchuses..
Also with the power, I managed to break an engine mount on the right hand side, therefore had to replace it with uprated Vibratechnics RHS Engine and Rear Torque mounts. Couple of pictures showing comparisons and also them fitted aswell.
Quick pictures of the engine bay, nothing special but you can see the Front Strut Brace and the Forge Piping, aswell as the Allard Delete pipe...
More recently, the car started to develop a misfire and after replacing the injector loom, it never cured the problem. When plugging in, all of the injector values were all over the place, therefore had to replace all of the injectors instead...
Also, some goodies came in the post for the car that I only managed to get fitted about 2 weeks ago. Consisted of a black front grill (to get rid of the horrible chrome around the edge of the standard one) and front polybushings.
I knew that the Front Wishbone Rear Bushes were bad, but when I eventually got it on the jack, they were literally hanging out of it...
Much better...
Lastly, I managed to get myself a set of Brembo 4 Pot Calipers and 323mm discs off of a Leon Cupra R, but have yet to get them fitted to the car. Just a quick picture I took whe they arrived of the Caliper, gonna repaint it and freshen them up a bit before putting them on the car.
More recently, have been in the market for a Clutch/Flywheel replacement, and after having considered the options, I decided to go for a VR6/G60 flywheel combination, as I didn't plan on getting any more power out of the engine in the near future. This is getting installed by OBD Autotune, not something I want to do myself without access to a lift. When removing this fro the car, it was evident from the pressure plate that the clutch had been slipping, so out with the old and in with the new. Sorry only have pictures of the actual clutch plate, none of during installation.
Also, as previously recorded, the Vibratechnics Rear Torque Mount is now out of the car as there was simply too much vibration for everyday use, I opted to go for the Superpro Front Lower Engine Mount Bushing instead, in the 70K variant hoping to elimate the vibration, not necessarily completely, but to a point where I could have the car ticking over and every part of the cabin wasn't getting shaken to bits. Using a picture from last install to compare the standard and Vibratechnics mounts
And then a picture of the standard mount minus the original bushing (left while residue which was more than likely Aluminium Oxide.. cleaned before new bushing was inserted)
And a picture of the new bushing inserted.
Also, did a test fit of the calipers, discs onto the new hubs and stuck a wheel on to make sure that they were going to fit, here's what sort of clearance I've got...
Not alot, about 2-3mm, but at present the Brembo's are being sent to get a full refurbishment before they are on the car, meanwhile I'll try and get the current discs skimmed, however have opted to got for Ferodo DS2500 pads, looking around £120-130!! Leaves the braking setup coming in at a pretty penny, but should all be worth it in the end. Haven't decided what brake lines I am going to use at the minute, have the originals there, but might go down the option of braded hoses. Just another quick (and slighty crappy) picture of the brake setup behind one of the wheels...
That should be me now, just waiting to get the car back at the minute, going to test the clutch out, hopefully it will be up to standard!
Another quick update, got the Brembo brakes back from refurbishment, thanks to PorscheCalipers for the work on them, they turned out fantastic! Had to replace the seals, and got them powercoated, the finish on them is exceptional!
Few pictures that Thomas has taken, really show off the finish..
Also, ordered some HEL Braided Brake Lines to match up with the fresh calipers, don't have any pictures of these but the quality is first class too.
Some new brake pads were ordered to match up with the Brembos, after a lot of consideration, opted to go for the Ferodo DS2500 pads due to the vast amount of good reviews about them, but they didn't come in cheap, at £142 for brake pads, they're definately the dearest brake pad I've bought.
Moving away from the front of the car, and to the back, got my hands on some H&R Trax+ 20mm Hubcentric spacers, to push the wheels out a bit from the back, as I always thought they tucked in too much. Just fitted them tonight, but the rain means that I have no decent pictures. Just have some of the actual spacers themselves, which might I add are very VERY light!
That's it for now, but with pay day fast approaching, trying to budget in myself some Godspeed Leon Cupra R 323mm grooved brakes, therefore completing the front brake setup, so I can move on to piecing it all together. Quick wee stock picture from their website...
Sorry for the massive update, but at least that keeps the thread right, and up to date for anyone who wants to read it.
Cheers and thanks for looking!

Thanks for your kind comments fella.
The engine bay is usually cleaned with an APC 4:1 solution, and then believe it or not AG Instant Tyre Shine, which might I add is crap on tires but perfect for this. It's not too bad if you keep ontop of it, and don't let a lot of grime build up over time. I did try other products before but give too much of a shine for my liking, and also thought that it helped trap all the crap of the day too.
Took a gamble at the Pro Race 3's, but think its paid off well.
Will update when I get brakes next.

mint ibiza lad credit to you, actually from Larne myself and seen your thread on jon44 n counldnt help but read it again on this. i like to see someone who has took the time money and hard effort to modify tastefully, but also whit the performace to match it. What sort of BHP and torque figures have u managed? and is there more power to come?
I dunno about the more power to come, will find out in a few months time, at the minute just getting the braking sorted like and then will look into more power. Thanks for your kind comments!
Just a quick update, 256 rear brake setup has been bought yesterday, will get pictures up soon!
