Really smart car mate, love the vinyled plate recess makes the front end look aggy as fuck. Really transforms the car. Rear looks spot on too. Side profiles good but maybe upgrade to a set of FR alloys? Current ones do look good though.
And yeah, you can fit subs to a std headunit. Theres a loom you can get which plugs into the speaker outputs and transfers the signal to RCAs at the other end I think. Try trawling CarAudioDirect Ill bet they do something. Not sure how long it will handle it though.

MORE PROGRESS
okay havent really bothered doing anything in a while as ive been pretty skint..
however, i decided to treat myself for christmas and have ordered some 20mm hubcentric spacers for the rear, alot of people add these to the mk4 ibizas as the wheels go pretty far back into the arch, so it gives it a much better stance/look, and some even say it improves the handling..
also this month i plan to paint the both S badges Anthracite, along with the front grill sorround and the mirrors, soon after ill be getting either my wheels done in anthracite, or some anthracite cupra alloys
also going to tidy up the drums and callipers, callipers are going red and the drums are going black for a more subtle look
