nice car m8. agree on the lowering, i had the same headlights as you when i bought my ibiza and have since swapped them for the twin light ones from the sport models, a subtle but very effective mod and cheap thanks to ebay... just a thought...

just noticed you are in barnsley, not seen your car about which part of town do you live in?

i'm living in leeds at the moment mate cos im at uni there but im originally from dodworth. I've never seen u about either matey and i always keep my eyes open for utha Seats.

U mentioned cheap for twin headlamps, how much you talkin? N if you could put in me in the right direction on ebay that would be class mate.

our lass is at leeds met uni and she takes my car there through the week, im i from royston now living near smithies. i paid £18 for one light and £24 for the other, fitting is about £65 at ted johnsons but they are easy to do diy. just type in owt like 'ibiza light' it took me about a month to source both.

I work in barnsley (well near enough) and have never seen either of your cars.

Westy - Car is looking very nice, really like the exhaust, not OTT at all, my I surgest FR/Cupra rear lights, as the red ones on the back look very much out of place on the silver Ibiza's

Really depends how much money you have, and want to burn on your car, personally I would have gone for OEM alloys saved a few pennies on 2nd hand ones, and put that towards colour coding door strips, rear valance, wingmirrors and so forth.

Will keep a look out more often for my fellow MK4'ers

ohhhhh come to think of it i think i've seen ur car in carnegie car park! Have u got a derv-doctor sticker on ur rear passenger window?
deffo going to check out the lights on e-bay, and my uncle owns ted johnsons so fitting would be free!
cheers for the suggestion mate.

Would love to get the cupra rear lights but lowering comes above them on the modding list!

Fair enough, they arent expensive I dont believe, and you should get staff discount on seat parts making it even cheaper!!

Go for coilovers matey, worth every penny,

He's also got a contract with POTN.com so he'd be able to get discount off the coilovers but i'm not sure what to be looking for

Looks good Westy I like it.

Should get some twin-style front lamps and some front fogs on there - will take away the base model look.

Then some lowering - would look spot on

I think the twin-style front lamps are next on the list, and then lowering mate.

Cheers for comments.
