looks like a tidy start pal, i would say go for coilovers, means you can chose how low you wanna be, i got springs first and regreat it, i got coilovers very soon after!

i have ta technix's, cost me £150 new with a 3 year warrenty, mine have about 20mm left on the fronts and the ride is pretty good, not too bouncy or hard, and grips really nicely in the corners, had them on about a year now and love them!

Looks good, one of the best colours as well. Slammed on G60's would look great i reckon, nice and subtle

And you can pick up MK5 coilovers for about £180 - £200 on ebay man.

Nice car,.How much you pay?

splitter, honeycomb grill and sort the headlights out

have a look in my build thread, as i restored 2 sets of headlights, one with a kit (clicky), one with some Autoglym polish(clicky)

i thought the polish was better, and it works out cheaper aswell (which is always a bonus)

but if you cba, get the kit ;)

you've done a good job on the headlights

you've done a good job on the headlights

Get the Autoglym, with a new clean rag and some elbow grease

And once you're done with the headlights, you can use it on your car and make it gleam!
