Luna Grey 1.4 Ibiza *stubby, Wind def, debadge* Updated

35mm springs look like the best option IMO... People will see its been lowered a 'bit'.. But when you, pull up to another ibiza, with a ride height of a tractor, people will see how much of a difference it makes.. Very subtle, but makes a huge difference

That's not that had 440 for alloys. Like the spoke design, not keen on the orange stripe tho.

Yeah sparks while driving are never a good sign haha

What drop you thinking of for yours?

they.have a good selection. Maybe a Little dear tho

Yea the orange stripe IMO looks good, because i am going for the whole orange theme engine bay, wing mirrors, S badges (front/back), interior handles, fascia, maybe orange seats but gotta check them out first.

Was thinking of the 35mm drop all round, as quite a few people seem pleased with it.

They look decent mate!! I know it may sound silly, but what do they do? Enable you to open a teeny tiny bit of your window whilst driving in rain? Or open more of your window as they have an effect on the way the air is pushed around it? Or mainly asthetic?

well you answered 2 of the points. no.3 is leaving the window open a bit in the summer, and no one will know. no.4 they are also a great side sun visor

Tuesday car is going to be tinted £120 for 3 rear windows cant wait

Cheers char, its hard on a silver car to do mods.

Tuesday Tinting back windows, dont know what grade to go. Just legal or a bit less i'm thinking.

when they tint my back windows, do i have to remove the stickers? they are internal ones.

*UPDATE*

Tinting will not be happening, due to lack of money.
23rd is my birthday and i will hopefully be getting it done then

OK i have started getting ready for my spray paint session
Got everything i need - Cover, Paints, Sandpaper, Music, Friends, a sheltered place.

Engine Cover

Engine cover with spray paints

FLUORESCENT ORANGE CAN

What too do first. aha,

Inventory
-Part to spray (engine cover for me)
-1 can of 300ml (depending on how much you are spraying) Grey Primer
-1 can of 300ml Fluorescent Paint (colour of your choice)
-1 can of 300ml Clear Lacquer (keeps it cleaner for longer)
-1 varying sandpapers of different types *Try these!*

Steps to complete
Step 1 - CLEAN IT!
Step 2 - Sandpaper the area you will be spraying
Step 3 - Carefully Mask the area you dont want sprayed with masking tape (or some heavy duty stuff)
Step 4 - Light coat of Primer (usually comes in Grey)
Step 5 - Repeat Step 4 a few more times until no original colour can be seen
Step 6 - Let it dry (i leave mine overnight to make sure its done)
Step 7 - (once it has completely dried) Time to Paint it whatever colour you have chosen
Step 8 - Let it dry a bit and do a few more coats
Step 9 - Once that has all completely dried its time too Lacquer it. 1-2 coats will usually do the trick but some people put about 1-7 coats on.
Step 10 - Let it dry
Step 11 - Once it has completely dried and you are sure its has, give it another quick damp cloth clean and reattach it too your car.
Step 12 - Stand back and have a look at the results

*still finishing it off but pictures will be up later*

What engine do you have?

My cover is tiny compared to that!

Coming along! Lowering is a necessity for Ibiza's across the range. I always say that they are great cars but their only downfall is the way they ride so high as standard. Get it dropped a bit and it'll make all the difference.
