    Hey Guys sorry I haven't updated my thread in a while I've been busy, but I'm back now and thought I'd update where I'm up to on the Ibiza, for those that dont mind me having a thread on it still .

    Sooo a few updates nothing huge as of yet just little things I've wanted to get out of the way:

    - upgraded side lights to 24 Led's - led bulbs
    - had the S front badge, S boot release, Ibiza, FR front and back badges and the chrome grille surround body shop painted black as I liked the look on my DS3 and do on Izzy too
    - upgraded to a green cotton panel filter
    - removed center silencer from exhaust (video to come & best £40 I've ever spent :P)
    - spark plugs have been upgraded in preparation for Stage 1 remap that should be happening around my birthday , around the end of April .

              Looks great mate!

              Not a fan of the blackened badges personally but each to their own. They do go great with the wheels and overall theme. Maybe I just love the chrome bits too much on mine

                Hey guys another small update managed to get a video of the car reving to about 2,000 rpm in Neutral without the center silencer, did try and get one in motion but my gf didn't do the best of jobs xD.

                Let me know what you think

                  Hey guys got a couple of small updates for the build, I did try removing the restrictive air sock from the stock air filter but in the end finally got around to buying a VWR forced induction for the car .
                  Managed to change all the bulbs in the car to LED only small but makes a nice difference.
                  The VWR makes the cars exhaust a little deeper/louder and some of the noises from the engine now :P can really hear the supercharger now and the turbo whistle/blow off xP



                  Halfway through fitting :P
