Nooo don't get cheap ebay mats! I bought some off ebay for my old car and they were really bad quality. The drivers mat wore out after a few months! It's much better to pay the extra and get some from a dealer. Plus dealer ones will have the retaining clips to stop them moving about.

nah the ones i got were great, they are from a guy who worked in a seat dealership, they had retaining clips and were cut ot fit the ibiza.

looks like a tidy motor mate, although the wheels are a little bit too busy for me. that front bumper looks very cool too!

lol the first colour looked like filler primer! Looks much better black. Polish it and it'll look even better :)

i had some paint prep wipes from halfords (like baby wipes that smell worse :lol:) wiped it with them, sprayed the primer on and left it for a while....then decided to spray it black which i did, then lacquered it up!

took about an hour waiting for the various coats to dry , was a piece of cake aimez!

Thought id put it here too, as im one for controversy!

ive been threatening it for a while but i finally took the plunge and bought me some stickes for the back window, i personally think it looks wicked, get more looks now in the car and there's always room for more!
combo of veedub stylees, a few american stylees and a few saft ones because i thought they were cool!


Starts off understated and surf chic
