My 1.4 Blue devil

[accampos]

hi everyone I was meant to start a rider's ride a while ago but now its the time

it's just a 1.4, still a young driver and insurance company rub their hands as soon as I walk in to declare a couple of mods

mods so far:
front bumper
side skirts
sport steering wheel
Kenwood cd player
6"x 9" 180W x 2 Sony XS speakers
LCR roof spoiler
SCN stiker

future plans:
Fabia rear wiper
Debadging
17" wheels (don't know which yet)
Angel Eyes (not sure)
Pre facelift front and back bumpers

it's a bit dirty i know but i'll get it nice and shiny for the VWNW show

that's my steering wheel, not my cup of tea to be honest, but people like it and I got used to drive with it

comments on it are welcome and ideas more than welcome

Looks a nice wee car, you got much planned for it power-wise?

cheers not really might get an induction kit but not for now...just one thing do you know how to put my reader's ride link onto the signature??

love the blue lights in the dash how you do them mate cus iv got a blue leon and would love the blue lights in my dash....

 

[accampos]

to be honest with you i had one of me mates from work to do it for me

i think he took the screen of then he put a blue surronding on it and the lights (they're connected to the lighter switch)

i'm now trying to find a way to get the dash lights in blue

cheers will do

i've heard of someone doing it on a mk3 ibiza but at the time i didn't really care because my ibiza was red anyway lol

 

[accampos]

has anyone tried an aero flat wiper to replace the rear wiper??

i've seen one on old ebay for £6 but i don't really fancy spending £6 on something that's as good as what i've got at the moment

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

The skoda Fabia rear wiper is brilliant, have a look at my readers ride thread for a link

 

[accampos]

ye just found it on ebay around £20 it's on the way

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

There much better, not only do they look better they don't squeek and actually wipe the window....unlike the leon one!

welcome to the world of cheap modding going expensive, thanks to insurers, I'm in the same boat so if you want to know how much anything will cost on insurance, ask me
how much is your insurance if you don't mind me asking?

Like what you've done with it so far, keep up the good work!

nice idea getting a fabia wiper, they really suit the Leons.... for a cheaper mod, de-wiper the back and buy a bottle of permaclear, makes the rain just fall off!

cheers too right there mate i'm paying 2k a year for a 1.4 ridiculous ain't it?

 

[BigWill]

Yep I'm exactly the same, but then Churchee didn't like my wheels so had to switch and pay out a bit more...... ridiculous isn't the word, F**ing stupid is what it is!

 

[accampos]

exactly same thing on me...if there's anyone that tried loads of insurance companies, that's me
1st - when i bought my first car pegeut 106
2nd - when i bought my seat ibiza mk3
3rd - when i passed my driving test
4th -when i changed the wheels on the ibiza
5th- when i bought the leon coz it was slightly modded and they dindn't cover it
6th and present - when i saw that i was going bankrupt

over 2 years i haven't got a freakin NCB waiting till december

 

[Crossy20]

2 grand!!!

Theres a 17 year old on here who's paying £1400 fully comp for a 1.4...im sure of it.

 

[accampos]

got my hands dirty today, washed it, debadged it and polished it, now just waiting for the fabia rear wiper... i'll take some pictures tomorrow

 

[accampos]

tomorrow will give it the final touches so it's nice and clean for sunday

 

[Fl@pper]

i like the kit on it, blends in well under the standard bumper - nice car

 

[BigWill]

I'm really liking this, I was a bit unsure on the front bumper, but it's growing on me
