Mk5 ibiza mods

[Juicy]

Anybody got any small but good mods for this car yet?

Let's see what you got please I'm after nodding lightly to help look a bit better

 

[JoshRedCupra]

Full bulb upgrade (Headlights, interior, numberplate lights) Fan washer fitting, Interior footwell LEDS, De-badge. All of these mods are small and cheap.

If you are willing to spend a bit more consider: OEM Spoiler, Seat Skirts, Splitter, Wheel refurb/respray, lowering of the car etc

I have a 14 plate Ibiza. I wanted to add small mods when i first got it. I started by wrapping the edge of the grill in black and de-badging the ibiza off the back. I later got the rear windows tinted and a sunstrip added and then wrapped the wing mirrors in carbon and carbon vinyl door sill protectors.

I would have a look around at lowering and a spoiler but those are more expensive.

hope some of these gives you some ideas

Bulb upgrade to white LED's instead of ugly yellow puke original bulbs

And fan washer is the jet wash that sprays on your windscreen to clean it. On Ibiza's the washer spray is directional so it hits 3 parts of your windscreen however the Fabia washer spray is a foam that covers your whole windscreen = more cleaning power!!!

Thanks. My Ibiza is white and rear lower bumper is Matt black not the same colour as car like yours. Can this be sprayed?

 

[JoshRedCupra]

Sure it can!

 

[Juicy]

Ok rear can be De badged, except S cos it turns to open boot.
What can I do about front chrome grill S?

 

[JoshRedCupra]

You can de-badge that! Or, like I'm about to do, spray it with Plasti-Dip!

 

[Juicy]

The front or rear?
Cos my cars white the front S will need the whole grill changing to a full slit grill without the S.
The again maybe I can just plastidip it too.
What about rear S button? On white car

 

[JoshRedCupra]

The rear S can't be removed as yes it is the boot handle. However everything can be plasti-dipped any colour! White, Black, Blue, Red even clear!

 

[Juicy]

Going to remove grill and plastidip it all including chrome so it's all same colour.
how far will 400ml can of plastidip get me?

 

[JoshRedCupra]

I think 400ml should last a while thats what I'm hoping anyway

Enough to do both wing mirrors too?

 

[JoshRedCupra]

Hm I couldn't say! You need to do 4-5 coats so its a tough one! I watch this video from Yiannimize: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFCxRmRojNA

They do the first coat very quick thin coat over the whole of the object (in this case his wheels) and then 4 more coats very slowly and thicker over the object!

 

[JoshRedCupra]

This video is A LOT better!

Just follow these steps and you'll be (as he says) GOLDEN

 

[Juicy]

Thanks, looks good.
wonder what else I can use this on on my car?

 

[JoshRedCupra]

You can use it on anything! People respray their whole car!
