.Si.'s ibiza 130 tdi sport

[.Si.]

looking good matey, very original bits

personally i wouldn't want to brand my FR as a Cupra but then again my came with all the branding as standard

keep up the good work, keep it clean

yeh i know what your saying mate...mine came standard,so going to cupra/fr stuff is an upgrade...but theres nothing else out there to add individuality to the outside..

thats why ive gone abit mad on the interior with the alcantara in red..

will change the wheels soon too...when i find some that suit the car.

also looking at getting headlights like yours..i think they suit it well

thanks for the comments

another little update for the weekends efforts.

fitted strut brace..and paintedn the engine cover section silver..and added sport sticker

next up..renault laguna courtesy door lights..

only fitted these as i like the shape..lol..also fitted panel leds behind

and lastly..fitted strip leds as puddle lights under door mirrors..all wired up to come on and off with interior lights..

Lovely car mate. Seen a few mods that I havnt seen elsewhere like the laguna door lights and the tt mirror. Cheers for the advice on the gear knob. Didnt see it as I didnt search the british ebay at all. Looking at it in yours only makes me want it more lol

 

[.Si.]

cheers fella..i like to keep bits oem...but then i do like to try different things.

ive actually modded the puddle lights in the mirrors now using rear number plate lenses from an ibiza..

done a few more mods but no pics.

genuine fr vdo clocks as old ones were knackered
cupra lhd rear light so they are symetrical
modded cupra steering wheel
alloys just back from refurb inc all new tyres.
black front grill

 

[.Si.]

right..just incase anyone is abit interested..lol

heres a quick guide on how i did my own puddle lights under my door mirrors

take one rear number plate lense from an ibiza and cut it in half.

then glue in 9 led board i got from ebay..£1.98 for 2..from hong kong..lol

then cut a hole in the mirror casing

insert lense

then a dab of glue on the back

refit and hook up wiring...job done.

also wheels back from refurb..

complete with new centre caps.,and lashed with poorboys

some pics of latest things going on.

symetrical rear lights..with red cree led bulb..so mega bright,and lights up red perfectly..excuse the dirt.

alarm led in passenger side door,to match drivers side

blacked up the alarm sensor housing to match audi tt light..

need cupra black visors now..

new dash clocks in and sorted..thank god

all black grill

twin led boot lights..using mk5 golf holders..

de-badged my cupra steering wheel..so just plain silver now.not mix and match.

Very nice car, I like it a lot, the headlining looks good.
What glue did you use?
Has it held well?

Aw good he got the part number so

oh yes..did you get my pm ??

colour coded the sunvisors black today so they match the interior light .

and now on look out for a cupra front bumper to replace my facelift oner.

so if anyone knows of one for sale..please let me know

 

[fuzzy232]

is it hard to suede the interior like you have done ? looks smart

 

[.Si.]

not really mate..it gets tricky around corners and big bends as this suede dont stretch that much.

apart from that its fine..

 

[fuzzy232]

Might give it ago as I want to rid of the horrible plastics haha

 

[.Si.]

give it a go mate..try it on some small bits first..then you will know how easy or hard it is to do other bits

 

[karlh944]
