Love the colour concepts mate..

Best way to sort the headlights is stick them in the oven for a bit, take all the philips screws off before hand, put the oven on medium heat and check them regularly and your a flat head to separate the cover from the lights, rembers to take the bulbs out 1st dont worry about the LEDs..if you have the original lights i suggest using the glass from that on the angels then you can run HID's because after awhile the original FK glass started to crack from inside..

it is strange how the rear bumpers change colour but nothing else on the car does.

iv heard about the oven way but i can see it going soooo wrong haha. iv heard you can do it with a heat gone, do you no if that way is safer?

i think mine had faded that much because when i first got the car i had it machine polished but i think the guy slacked off on the bumpers. didn't have the energy to do the back bumper today, gonna set on that tomorrow. i'll try and get some better before and after pictures.

The heat gun is ok just the oven is easier trust me its not that bad when it hits the right temp, the seals will just pull apart! trust me :) i did mine then seal them up with silicon clear sealer..

your smoothed bumper looks sweet. are you going to paint your wheels painted or were you just messing around on photoshop? ye ill get you a pic of them turned on. I'm not to fond of them at the moment but iv seen a picture of them all black and i think they look a lot better.

yehh the do look good in all black.. the only complaint i have with them are the halo style lights.. i jus realy dont like them for some reason.. they suit only some cars and i dont think ours is that car :?

bt then again its all down to taste really.. and money, coz its either them or gti projectors!

yehh i am plannin to get my wheels done and I've already tinted the fogs aswel and personally they r ftw!!!

cheers, the cherry bomb was a spur of the moment buy, i was gonna get a hidden one but iv already cut a bit out my bumper so i think I'm gonna get a twin exhaust.

not as bad as you would think. started at 12 and was done before it was dark. if you dont no how no how to do it i'll message you a step by step.

Cool :) Nice car btw

i think purple and yellow go well together.

It's a fact that purple and yellow to well together - they are complimentary colours! What will you do purple? Leather interior!?

I've seen you driving about sheffield. think i drove past you a few times. looks pretty sick, love colour concepts
