Veyron's 1.2 Ibiza - Update 12/09/2012 - sadly gone

[Veyron]

You need to get some Honeycomb upper grills!
AND
Cupra vent switches.

HID's are great, although I recently just gave mine up, didn't like the beam pattern they gave... Now on the hunt for some new LED sidlights as my last pair started strobing.

.G.

I know! The facelift FR grills are a load more expensive than the pre=-facelift ones though!
Was going to get the vent switches but wasn't too sure if it would clash with the chrome surrounds?

I'm on my second set of sidelights as well, one of my LED number plate bulbs has already blown after two months!

Just get the pre-facelift ones - although the holes are smaller.
I've just fitted the vent switches to mine last week and I also have the chrome surrounds, I'll get a photo later and upload it so you can see them together.
Not sure why these cars like to eat sidelight bulbs, but normal sidelights just look ORANGE regardless of what headlights you have in.

I like the one with the wider holes though! Will get round to it at some point!

That will be great if you could take a pic of them

I've noticed a lot of MK4 Ibiza's with brake lights out as well, must be another ibiza thing!

 

[Veyron]

Cupra spoiler should be getting sprayed tomorrow!

Been quoted £50, going to try and get it down to £45!

Looking well mate. Good idea on the anti-slip mat inside. VRS spiders look awesome too!

I've got the Cupra vent switches with chrome surrounds, they're in my RR somewhere.

Very good price on the spoiler by the way!

I agree buddy the pre-facelift FR ones match the facelift grills better, I do think the facelift FR ones look slightly better but might not look right unless you change the other grills to match which'll be pretty pricey

As for the sidelights in 2-3 years i've only changed them once, no real issue for me. They are a bitch to change though IMO

Loving the new pics btw jake, the car looks uber clean. Loving those lights, really look the business as does the cupra handbrake.

Hows the reception on your new aerial bud? If it's good as the original I might get one myself, still got the civic one but that looks well nice

Thanks mate! Spoiler is going in today, got it down to £45! Think the vent switches will be my next mod, it's only £2.09 each !

Thanks mate , i think the LED sidelights seem to blow fast for some reason. The car is still filthy believe it or not! Pictures can be deceiving!

The aerial at the moment is a lot worse than the original/civic ones but it's OK when in town's and cities so i can live with it

Nice one, I can't wait to see the spoiler £45 quid is a steal mate. I'm quite tempted to get a bit more red into my car after seeing yours. How much were your chrome bits btw?

I wonder how it would be with an aerial booster, i've got one on mine and made a big difference to mine

Surprised you car is dirty mate, doesn't look it

 

[Veyron]

The chrome was £20 for the vent rings and £10 for the gear surround, i don't really use the radio enough to bother with that lol

 

[Mobo]

looking very nice mate. its come along way since i last saw it. you should get the part behind the number plate blacked. will finish it off

 

[Veyron]

Thanks mobo! Yeah it's on my list!

Spoiler will be on tomorrow night!

 

[andy17]

Time for an update!

 

[Veyron]

Thanks

Spoiler is now on! Me and r14rossi fitted it just in the dark and battling against gale force winds!

Was worth it though

Lol picked the windiest day in years to do it

Looking forward to picies

 

[Veyron]

They will be up tonight

Wasn't too sure i liked it at first but seeing it in the day i think it looks a lot better!

 

[Veyron]

Maybe tomorrow , haven't had chance with it getting dark so early!

 

[Mobo]

how do you keep your car so red. as i got a red car now and its abit pink and not shiny

 

[Veyron]

It was a nice red when i got it but a lot of red cars suffer from fade if they haven't been protected, all i have used is turtlewax colour magic and autoglym HD wax, i highly recommend the HD wax, it's expensive but makes a lot of difference.

I think mopping might cure the pinkness because it takes the top layer of paint off?

You gone VAG again mate?

Can't wait to see the new spoiler Jake, i'm sure it looks awesome

 

[Veyron]

Will give it a clean today and gets some piccies, promise
