Mark's DS3 Build Log Code Name Dee xD

[vmark89]

Hey guys just thought I'd post an update as of 01/10/12 my DS3 has officially been part ex'd before any more issues arose and before the engine finally gave up hope as it was starting to splutter and cut out .
I've now taken delivery of a spanking new Seat Ibiza FR 1.4 TSI and loving it the engine is a beast .
Know its not exactly a French Car but would still like to stay in touch with the great community and people here so if its alright with the mods then I'll post some updates on the new car aswell.
Got some images from when I picked her up from the dealer aswell as a couple from the huge M&S in Elleamere Port but not any more as its been raining heavy for the last 3 days but already given her a name Izzy xD not the most inventive but sue me lol .
WTF has been nice enough to allow me to keep posting and updating my build thread but on the Ibiza to keep in touch with everyone

Pics Start on Page 3 For Izzy

Have done some small mods:

- Changed Side, Main, Dipped to Ultra 5K Bulbs
- Changed front Indicator Bulbs to Silvertek Bulbs
- Removed Spare wheel and replaced with an inflation and repair kit

Got a few little mods in mind:

- Paint Calipers Red
- Finish the bulbs off around the car, Rear & Side Indicator Lights
- Led the interior light's
- Body shop spray S Seat badge and Ibiza on boot and S badge on front grille aswell

But there's more of the big ones lol:

- Remap Stage 1 at Jabbasport or Revo looking at 220bhp with upwards of 300ibs torque all with standard exhaust air filter
- Either Forge Forced Induction or a Green Panel Filter as haven't decided yet but the Forge would increase the Stage 1 remap's gains
- Custom built exhaust based upon measurements of a Miltek Exhaust as they've got it spot on for power increase but would like a more personal exhaust tone
- Toyo Proxy's all round
- Forge Intercooler

That's about it at the mo

Thanks =) the badge i asked to be similar to the racing's where it has orange lines through it so put some sport red ones through on mine.

Looks really smart

Are you going to do anymore?

Have you thought about getting the light surrounds and changing them to black? I ordered mine from Ross on here and sprayed white to match WTF. Some photo's and info here

Thanks yeah im looking to maybe get some of the inside bits and bobs either wrapped or sprayed to match the red/black as im not a chrome man, and contemplating getting some new wheels similar to the ones one the TT RS if i can find any.
The light surrounds id never even thought of but seeing it on your DS3 it makes it stand out quite a bit, how much were you quoted for yours and are they hard to fit?
