Ibiza Cupra

For those that don't know, the Ibiza Cupra runs the 1.8t from the VAG range, but from factory only has a tiny turbo and conservative map, running only 156bhp.

I bought this as a Stage 1 with a fairly aggressive map, exhaust, large air filter and several bypasses done running 185bhp. It's also lowered on H&R Cup Kit, and was on 17" O.Z Superturismos.

First thing I did was change the 2 foot long standard aerial for a stubby one from a Citroen.

I then changed the rear wiper for one from a Mk5 Golf.

Did the front and rear badges black, got UK legal pressed plates with my personalised reg on them and picked up some plate surrounds from a German car dealer whilst skiing.

I also fitted subtle tint Lamin-X to my headlights and the splitter from a Leon Cupra R.

Fitted the factory stickers from the Ibiza Cupra R to my wheels.
