Matt's Red Ibiza FR TDI on RHs, with added plywood and plastic :)
- Thread starter FR_MATT
- Start date
Thanks, I've been meaning to grab some photos there for a while
Now most of the good weather has finished, I've been thinking about my winter wheels and what colour to re paint them, my current thinking is a lighter shade of grey than my FR wheels were, as I've had a silly colour now, they will hide dirt better than silver and be a bit different from just black.
Got a bit of an urge to do some track days and after pricing up tyres, 16s are about £30-40 cheaper than 17s, so it would make sense to swap my FR wheels for some lightweight 16s but I'm unsure...

No big updates as such. Just painted my winter wheels Hammerite Hammered Grey, they will be going on in a week or two:
Getting on a bit now!

Just read through your whole thread 
Very nice car mate, and some vary daring decisions (regarding the numerous front lips lol) Love the wheels too.
Definitely going to steal the number plate magnets idea

Yeah never seen those wheels on an Ibiza before, look the tits. What offset are they btw? and how close are they to the brakes? I'm getting some Schmidt Modernlines and trying to work out it the offset will be okay to clear the 312mm's
Et32 8" wide, needed 5mm spacers on the front to clear the 312s comfortably. I think that's more because the spokes on them are quite thick, as the standards wheels (et41 17x7) and steelies (et42 16x6.5) are fine without spacing. Rear is spaced 20mm for looks

Hmm okay cheers. Thee Schmidts are 16's and 7J fronts and 9J rears so the rears should sit nice as they are
just worried about clearing the brakes up front as I dont know the offset lol. if the car sits anything like yours i'll be more than happy.
Not much happening to the Ibiza, as I've been busy buying a house and getting engaged!
Getting on a bit now:
Replaced the lip with one from a Fabia as it kept getting bent back on dips in the road
Quite pleased with how it looks, similar to the garage door seal, but nice ABS plastic. Best part it was only £13 from the dealers [] credit to stealthrider for the idea
Went to Disneyland for New Year. Paint looked weird under the greeny yellow lighting outside the hotel:
Decided to drive into Paris on the way back:
A little miffed I messed this picture up, as I'd left the aperture too wide and in my haste to grab a shot from the middle of the road... as a policeman was coming towards me... while parked in a taxi rank... I focused in the "wrong" place:
Drove round the arc de triomphe, it wasn't as bad as people make out:
On the train home:
Fitted these at the weekend:
Pictures of them soon
