    Just working out the posting kinks.

    No mods to the stock mechanics yet...but a few cosmetic additions
    rear sill scuff plates to match the fronts
    alloy/carbon oil filler
    luggage nets

    In the mail
    new aerial - white alloy Simoni Racing
    Carbon fibre DSG paddles
    Stainless footrest to match existing pedals
    Seat belt pads for SKODA
    Airbag replacement decal that isnt painted on the bloody visor
    Driver Name decals

    THEN the performance stuff can start....
    Aiming for a stage II minimum.


    Brash

    From memory it was a dealer display car and they were happy to remove the stickers but the owner wanted them left on to stand out?

    In Europe, The Fabia is a VERY successful Rally vehicle. in many IRC/ERC, Czech and Regional Rallies, the Skoda sweeps the field of individual, team, and manufacturer trophies.

    The dealer put the decals on as part advertising, part rally eye candy. I got them on the car as a sweetener when buying the car as an ex-demo, with a mere 3500 km on the clock.

    and besides.... who wants to look like everyone else anyway?

    Oh I am definitely planning a tune... I have never owned a turbo car before, so taking my time picking the right gear.
    REMAP : - maybe racechip.de (Ultimate 2) or just go APR or BSR Stage II ....we'll see,

    When you say "as a sweetener" does that mean you payed less for the car cause it had those stickers on it?

    Sorry to be blunt, but I'm not a fan at all of all the stickers. Obviously its not my car so it doesn't matter,I just hope you didn't have to pay more to have your awesome little car graffitied.
