New owner i30 CW Trophy 2.0 white

Ralph1 · **August 25, 2011, 04:44:56**

Hi all,

We recently purchased a 2010 i30 CW Trophy in white, we had been looking for about 6 months for the right one to come up. We got this one with only 7400ks on the clock.

Mods so far:

Dash mat,
Chrome door handle covers
Seat covers (front, rear to follow)
Rear rubber mat,
Floor mats,
Mudflaps,
Had Hyundai turn off the HALO system (auto locking)
And waiting on the side rain guards to arrive.

I will post some pics when I get home, very happy with it though, a great run-a-bout for the missus.

cheers

Ralph

Welcome to the club Ralph. I love your choice as I have the 2010 i30CW diesel (not the Trophy). I'm sure whether it's you or the "misses" driving it, you'll enjoy it. Don't make the mistake of letting your missus drive it too often or you won't get a look in.

Ralph, If you want a good price on a spoiler, ring Darren from Cheep Car Parts 4 U on 0417191110. Both Dazzler and I have brought our spoilers from him. You will not be disappointed. Tell him you are a member of the club.

A nice looking car! I agree on the spoiler. Go for it if you can get a decent price.

Welcome, great looking CW.

Where did you get the chrome handles and how much did it cost? I'm thinking about getting ones myself, because mine already has some chrome and the black handles are starting to bother me

Dazzler · **Reply #14: August 30, 2011, 23:42:46**

We got the handle covers for Trish's car too accim (off Ebay)around A$25 including postage from memory (for a set of 4) and they are good quality

Ralph1 · **Reply #15: September 04, 2011, 05:17:11**

We got the rear spoiler delivered, and some pics. Drilling into the car body was

, but all went well. Here is some pics of the instalation and finished product.

cheers

Ralph1 · **Reply #16: September 04, 2011, 05:21:40**

And the finished product.

Dazzler · **Reply #17: September 04, 2011, 10:21:26**

Looks great (you were lucky .. we had to get ours painted at a cost of $99 .. yours was already white I'm guessing)

Ralph1 · **Reply #18: September 04, 2011, 10:50:09**

Yep already painted, delivered for $115.

bumpkin · **Reply #19: September 05, 2011, 08:34:55**

Very nice ralph

A very handsome couple.. How are you finding the Getz so far ? And don't say "I looked next to the CW and there it was"

2i30s · **Reply #25: February 13, 2012, 10:05:48**

Ralph1 · **Reply #26: February 13, 2012, 10:19:50**

The Getz has been good so far, a few small things under warranty, Hyundai replaced the engine mount last week and tomorrow it's booked in to have the rear seat looked at as the drivers side wont fold down. Other than these small things it's great.

cheers

Ralph

They are pretty zippy (the 1.6) I used to like zipping around in ours
