Adi's Ibiza GTi

im thinking coilovers and tiny rims again

16's?

mebby put a leon front splitter on too.

and a good claying to get the red colour back!

why you chose this then?

16s are becoming my size of choice now, defo decking it, and im after some later sepc ibiza gti full bumpers to cover up the (poverty spec) polo style metal valances. I wanna go smoooooth with this one.

Dont really know why i chose it, i sposen you dont see many well modified 6K ibizas around, and its got the VW reliability i like

dodgy spanish build 'quality' tho lol lots of rattles?

not at all, feels and drives just like a polo to be honest, all the dash is all mk4 polo too

cool any other plans for it then?

just to go smooth, and free some power out of that 2litre 8v, its nowhere near as torquey as i hoped it would be, the old mk2 golf gtis wud eat this car!

Looks ok mate, should look good decked on the right rims!

Looks ite mate... few bits here and there and you wil be wel away

adi has been a busy bee today...

just got back from sheffield n put my new wheels on (in the snow!) much better than 3 spokes!!



and today i found this..




but on the way to sheffield to get my wheels, the cable on the drivers side electric window snapped, leaving my window stuck halfway down

so to hold it up n stop the inside of my car filling with snow, i improvised....



beer is useful for something!!

Budweiser FTW

Looking good mate! Bring her to skeg so I can have a look.

nice rims

i aint o keen on them realy but if you like them thats all that matters

i dont get much opportunity to go to skeg tom, i work away most of the time

them rims aren't staying that colour though

get ross to polish them for ya.

Nice find on the fusion gear mate.
What colour you thinking for the wheels? Rims would look sweet polished, even if not the whole wheel

i was thinking maybe a gunmetal grey, and i was gonna ask ross if hed kindly polish the "insides of the spokes" of ya get me..

the bits that are angles in towards the holes..

im making no sense lol

allright bud,if u can get em to me i can sort them out,if its just the bits between the spokes then that shouldnt take me too long,would need the rims for a week tho,maybe 2 depending what they are like. im doing beese's rims at the minute but if u get ures to me then i can do them after! wont take too long,its just the prepping,thats why i will need em for a bit! my number is in the technical section if u wanna ring/text me!

sound boss, the wheels are in good condition, do i need to get the wheels painted before polishing?

no mate,it would be easier for me to polish them first then u mask it where its polished,my drills n mops arent the most paint friendly so its better if u wait!

sound as a pound, how much to polish the whole 4 wheels? and how much just for the insides of the spokes, im undecided of which i want

without seeing them mate i cant say,if u want the whole rims doing like ive just done for beese u are looking at £150 upwards,just the litle bits i dont know,wont stitch u up tho,and the prices include me prepping the wheels,if u do that i can do em cheaper!!!

150 for all 4 wheels? do the tyres need removing?

depends on how much kerbing there is dude?! i prefer to do em without the tyre's but if u are happy to have them done without taking them off then thats ure call!

the wheels are in very good condition with minimal kerbing mate.

id be happy to leave the tyres on tbh.

once theyve been polished, am i able to paint over that surface if i wanted to?
