Had my Ibiza for 2 months now, going to upload things as it comes to it,

Unfortunately due to age and location insurance is a b**tch and means i have very little money to spend on it.

Thankfully this is paid so should be good to get a bit of work done now.

Will keep updating as we go

Bought some aftermarket speakers from halfrauds, different conection to the blade one, if anyone knows what its called :)

In my hastiness i managed to do this

:( actually dont mind it means the speakers are louder and looks pretty cool when its blasting out, might just tidy it up and do it to the other one, plus they weigh like 10grams so weight reduction (probably get me an extra 5BHP :p)

Then i put my pressed private plates on

Also replaced the aerial with a small one as i dont have it connected to my stereo anyway so it doesnt matter.

I also removed the rear wiper, so if anyone needs a motor you know where to come :)

Also recently just bought some Seat belt covers

Update.

Had some little things done to it, will update with pics this weekend.

Me and a pole had an altercation, already had minor body damage so off to the body shop.

And it misfired last night and now wont rev at all, idling about 600 rpm, checked each spark plug and cant work out what it is thats causing it maybe the whole lot.

Update off that all sorted, 2 coil packs went at the same time and the other two were absolutely shot.
Got something ordered so will slap on at the weekend and show some pics :)

Another update, probably the worst updated RR on the whole forum. Got Coilys, splitter, strut brace, badgeless grill. TT pedals, Coil pack covers, new battery and brake pads all to fit, looks like a busy weekend.

Wish i could do it more often but no space or time most of the time.

Well the weather was typical and we barely got anything done. Also we weren't too prepared and ended up most of the day messing about.

Got strut brace. Badge less grill and also de badged the car

The old accelerator doesn't come off like the other ones, tt pedal goes over it. Soak the tt pedal in hot water for a while to soften the rubber, makes it a bit easier ;)
