Hi I'm havefunSKOmad's mate I am also into skodas.... I run a favorit, and i am getting a Rapid sport too...but anyway. I have been messing around on MSPaint tonight, and i am thinking about euro styleing the favorit....id love some feedback on this! Before And after.... My plan is to put (possibly) ATS classics on it, 13" obviously!, and drop it on some HP sports kit suspension from CZ.. Yes or no? Steve

:)Welcome aboard mate to a very open minded forum! There are loads of Skoda lovers on here as you've obviously noticed! Fav looks cool, but what would you do with the number plates and it's lights?

Yeah its all very well smooving everything but then you have to clape the reg plate on over the top with a daft chrome plate light off a trailer or summert, a mod which is thus a bit barry due to its pointlessness, like debadging it then putting a massive sticker up the side which says what it is. Or buying a 4-door saxo and removing the handles from the rear doors, instead of just buying a 2-door. Verdict: GHEY.
Some wider wheels wouldn’t go amiss of course, no issues there. A cool skoda all the same, looks mega 80’s with all that white!

Was only thinking the same this morning when this turned up at house across the road from my office.....

Ha, I bet the exhausts aren't real. I wonder if his name is Dave or just T1T!! Either way, his parents must be proud, thats why they spent 18p on a "private" plate.

Smooth as much as you can without repositioning the number plate,.. then see how that looks... then you can make an informed choice abotu going further.
yay for Euro Skodas ... Definatly worth it!

i think removing the plastic trim by the rear wheel arch, and smoothing the door handles might work ...

Leave the handles and splash guard but get rid of the locks.

Some smoothing for some win i recon, what to do with the plate is a tricky one but if you're creative it could work, trailer lights are a bit of an afterthought, theres loads of donors out there. Talking of this, i've got my own practical mods to work out...

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Yeah that was the plan Steve! Finally someone with the plan to do a dash swap in the UK ;D It's definitely something I'd do to a favorit, the felicia dash is much nicer, and you only really need to change the top half if you're feeling really lazy ;D
