Altech's Ibiza, Replacement Is Here! Can You Guess What It Is? Pg 33

I am absolutely loving this, what a transformation! Vids would indeed be good... need to locate some cupra bumpers for myself

 

[jenk]

Cheers for that, when I looked at it I though you would need to put strips in due to the curve......... just like you have done.

 

[provocation]

wow! This bumper and exhausts looks great!

 

[Ibiza 130 tdi]

Aye now that's different! I think I like it!

Fair shout for being different! That takes some doing - you need to update your sig pic now though.....

How's it sound?

 

[MIkey kc]

that looks the ****ing nuts mate, really good job, very tidy

 

[infidel]

great jobs on the wheels

Looking good, I've done a similar thing to my exhuast but used an Oval tailpipe.

The rear bumper looks spot on.

 

[diss_50]

WOW! - Nice job mate - The more I look at the the better it gets

 

[Ibiza Dan]

Exhaust looks perfect mate!
Well done

 

[T. Spark]

Only echo what has been said, liking that ALOT mate!

 

[diss_50]

Needs another touch of VW though - A Polo rear wiper!

 

[danmay]

i do like the smoothness of the bumper it must be said, the exhaust looks pretty nifty too mate, liking it, fair shout for going against the grain!

 

[antnee]

Looking very nice!

 

[danmay]

Cheers mate. I think I might have to patent my idea

yeah mate you need to patent that mo fo QUICKLY!

 

[Altech]

Thanks for all the comments

The exhaust note sounds more beefy today...I think it's settled in now. It's still not loud enough for my liking so i'm going to chop out the centre silencer n replace it with a straight pipe. I've also cut down my rear number plate and put that on, so the back end looks slightly different now.

Top job fella, looks great!

You put in a centre silencer? Or what is attached to the standard system? If so you deserve a slap for putting in a centre box on a derv!

Take it from me mate - the TINIEST backbox only still won't be loud enough....decat all the way.

No noooo i'm going to remove the origional centre silencer. The system that I had made only replaced the back box.

Is it really worth decatting it? Does it give extra sound or would it just be better to chop out the centre silencer?

Yeh I have - i don't know tbh...didn't notice much. I'll put it to you this way - i did a 50 mile trip yesterday and got 60.8 average mpg....

Decatting opens up a whole new world of derv noise - it's whether you want the added smell/smoke to go with it or not. I hated the smoke/smell when I got it.....now I love it. You can have so much fun with a smoke shooter... Push bikes being one.....
