| Hullo! Southern friend here! I'm Ian, found you guys out of ClubLupo as I have a mk1 1.0 Seat Arosa. Its super Ratty at the moment as the previous owner scraped and wrecked it. I bought it for a sound £300 though im happy... Anywho i'm at a loss as where to go with my lil dub, not sure what style to go for as i also have a classic mini which needs to be restored and i dont have a huge amount of money to spend on the rossa. Any ideas would be much appreciated! Plans: LOWER! Banded colour coded steels. ( i can get them super cheap so for me its the only option) | |

| Welcome buddy. Wish I could get some nice 16" banded steelies. Huge fan of them tbh. I think you should take it as it comes. I was Gunna go retro looking but after new wheels decided to go Oem kinda look. So depends what u think as you go on really. | |

| Ta! mine are gonnae be 13"s so i guess it'll be pretty euro. But i can get my original steels colour coded and banded with my tyres on for £200... so im happy...
So unsure with the body work.. i dunno whether or not to pay out and get it all sorted ( hundreds of bumps scrapes and rust!)
or go for some sort of euro-stickerbombed-ratty look, cause it's cheap and cheerful

| Lol! It has that effect not many people like fabia's really, I photoshopped one years ago and when I was sick of the bora I was looking through my old photoshops and decided inwanted one lol. Jesus that's cheap. I want some doing for that price lol! I think if u going rat look I dot think you should stickerbomb, how about Matt paint? Rattle can it. Think it's a good look and cheap if u do it yourself | |
