i decided i wanted something a little different to my previous cars, something with potential that hasn't been done to death. made 5k back from the sale of my beloved civic
and 2 days later i was in posession of the banana. Fully standard, 2 lady owners with full skoda history, 77k etc etc.Now this may have seemed a wierd choice but i'm not one to buy something ****, already have plenty of plans and rest asured it will have as much time and effort spent on it as my previous cars.
so heres how it looked on autotrader
once it was home, paint renovated and pictures taken with a proper camera
and now its been lowered, wind deflectors,6k HIDS, Interior mats, Forge recirculation valve, Vrs an Octavia Badges removed off the rear,
windows tinted, rear is oem colour, and front is light smoke. car is a bit dirty but meh...
back now lowered a tad more,wind deflectors and tints done, spaced the rears 5mm, new headunit in
indicators turned up, so rather than changing just the shitty one, changed them both despite only one being misty
before letting water in and greeness
new and comparison
After, fit like oem so happy with them, will give the headlight a polish to make it looking new when the weather is half dry
Bought a K03s off good ald ebay for £250. gonna send it away to get a few bits done to support 280bhp-300bhp and have all bearing etc replaced, in the mean time will get together all the other bits im needing so i can put them all on in one fell swoop and get it mapped etc. should have all the bits ready for summer i'm reconning.
