passatplus · Mar 27, 2006

I love the look of the Skoda Superb, so I put the whole front on my Passat B5

visit my new site: www.superb-combi.de

Skoda never build a Superb Combi but I do
now my car is really unique

PRoJeKV6 · Mar 27, 2006

What summer wheels do you have? :thumbup:

Guest · Mar 27, 2006

that was is something that was meant to be!

rollininstyle2004 · Mar 27, 2006

Awesome :thumbup: Great work

Darter · Mar 27, 2006

Wow...definitely a big WOW! I love it!

Slightly sharper lines and a micro badge. You should find a nice small VW emblem to put in place of the Skoda badge though. Or are you changing everything over?

Dude that's extreme! I love it! :thumbup:

BoyNextDoor · Mar 27, 2006

is it just me, or do i feel it's out of proportion? nice work non-the-less. Excellent fit... doesn't look bad...

RAH · Mar 27, 2006

Nice work, but i would do the VW logo in front as well, something different :thumbup:

How hard was the whole process. Other then minor modifications as far as mounting points go, radiator supports stuff like that was it a simple task. You just picked up the hood, grill, headlights, bumper, and fenders right? Anything else?

b5pr · Mar 28, 2006

very cool hats off to a job well done

sano · Mar 28, 2006

may i ask why you have paddle shifters despite having a manual transmission? or is that a Skoda thing?

jeffbaynard · Mar 28, 2006

Very cool, unique and different.

BCblack99b5 · Mar 28, 2006

car is friggin sweet

passatplus · Mar 28, 2006

the left paddle shifter I will use for switching to high beam and the right for for switching the brake light - if somebody drive too near behind me

if I would have had an automatic transmission then I would have it connected the paddles to the transmission

the R-badges in the speedometer are stickers, here is a high resolution scan of these logo

to change the frontend at an B5.5 is more easily, there is nothing do adapt
but at my B5 I must remove a little bit sheet metal

The Limey · Mar 28, 2006

Paddle shifters!! NICE!!!!!!!!!!!! Where did you get those from and they can be connected to the auto trans to be functional??? I WANT IT!!

nice job on the font end too, i'd get a vw badge to replace the skoda badge though for sure.

cody251 · Mar 28, 2006

Very cool!! Very impressive! Nice fit and finish. I'd get the RS6 wheels too!
