Got It Today! - Formula Sport

[Dawg Primo]

Picked it up today the better halfs new Ibiza Formula Sport.
Had the brushed aluminium kit fitted inside and the silver wing mirror covers without her knowing, she loves it.
She's asked me to put these photo's on cos she's keen to know what you all think of it!
For me, got to do something about the exhaust tail pipe.
Please let us know what you think (Might get a quiet night then LOL!!)

We got 3 kids, so had to go for the 5 door.
Thought that there was not much to choose in looks between the 3 and 5 door versions, specially in black.

looks really nice, maybe a chrome tip for the exhaust?? i'm sure she prob doesn't want it to make loads of noise.. see how long it stays that shiney for in this weather

Your absolutely right, she wont want it to make to much noise, so a chrome tailpipe is probably the best solution.
Any ideas of where the best place to get hold of one is, cos Seat don't do one?

And thanks for all your kind comments so far, she'll be reading them all later.

Nice looking car What does the brushed aluminium kit include? Vent surrounds and door handles?

Thanks.
You get surrounds for the 4 air vents on the dash and for either side of the base of the gear lever, all genuine Seat bits.
Nothing available for doors through Seat at moment, so dealer told me.

Halfrauds do a selection of chrome tailpipes just use a ruler to measure the diameter you need and go choose one

Been to local Halfords on way home, not much to choose from tho.
Gonna start trauling the web, but would like to see what i'm buying in the flesh first, if you know what I mean.
Think from looking at tailpipe, anything other than a slide on round cover, will mean choppin some of the tail pipe?

I had a ripspeed oval chrome one on my fiesta, just loosened 3 bolts slotted it over the pea shooter and then tightened bolts did the job.

Seen a nice one on the web that will give two pipes out the back, bolts on the same as you said.
Not sure if that's trying to hard to be an FR tho? Opinions please.
Oh and does any one know if you can a brushed alu kit for the doors from anywhere?
Sorry first Ibiza, so loads o questions.

 

[Dawg Primo]

This is on my formula sport, its a powerflow end that I have adjusted slightly to fit, bolts on like the pic above.

Still needs a little more on the adjustment, but happy with it at the moment.

I bought a twin 3" stainless steel end pipe off ebay before xmas for £19.99. Had to chop about 4" off the exhaust tip then bolt on. I will post a pic tomorrow once I have taken one.

 

[canonman]

[Dawg Primo]

Josh263uk - thanks for the pics, seein yours has made me mind up got to get it done.

Wolfie - looking forward to seeing your pics.

Looks lovely mate! I agree with the tailpipe. Does look a bit crap.

But best colour!
