Lowe 191 Report post Posted January 11, 2017 Hi all Just been guided over here by someone at Seat Cupra.net - selling my Ibiza and picking up my GT86 on Saturday. Looking forward to it, been a big fan of these cars since they were released and looking to learn all about RWD. Anyone live locally to me? Give me a flash and a thumbs up if you see me about!

Lowe 191 Report post Posted January 12, 2017 Cheers. Been giving the mod stuff some thought. Think I'd like to keep the wheels but perhaps change the colour. Not sure what goes well with the grey body, normally I have anthracite wheels on my cars, but doubling up might look a bit odd. Might need to get photo shop out and try matt black. Also considering a panel filter, heard good things about the Blitz one? I've been looking at spoilers too, would love a 'proper' ducktail (as in a 70's Porsche) but haven't seen one that actually sticks up, most seem to be flush fit with very little angle. Anyone know of something that's a bit more 'tail'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone know of something that's a bit more 'tail'? All the panel filters are basically the same, the Blitz one of HKS one are both decent value. What about gold or bronze wheels on a grey car? Even white is an option. There's a "spoilers and wings" list on the ft86 forum that has loads listed, should fine something you like on there. 1 Lowe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had the same sort of thought for a Porsche style one that stuck up more so I went with this which seems the closest I could find to what I imagined:- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark-in-Stoke 488 Report post Posted January 12, 2017 I have an HKS panel filter with about a thousand miles on, let me know if you want to try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lowe 191 Report post Posted January 12, 2017 Ah I can't like anyone else's post, done too many so have a virtual like haha! Thanks for the info on spoiler, just saw the price of the fibreglass one and nearly fell over, blimey that's a pricey bit of plastic let alone carbon. Mark, that's very kind of you, may take you up on that 👍🏻 1 Mark-in-Stoke reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
