I like the smooth boot and the bumpers will look good once they have had the bump strips removed and smoothed ;) the rest isn't really to my taste but we are all different and if you like it, that is the most important thing :-)

Personally i dont like the lights and coded mesh

and a clean would probably do it more justice....

....but otherwise looks pretty tidy!!!

plans sounding good!

(i know what u mean about money too!)

when its had the MOT and coilover and boot finished off done going to get it valeted any one no any good ones near basingstoke???

spray the mesh black and get the standard rear lights on and yer onte a winner!

i wanna get some spray for the rear lights I've seen a clio with it and it match the colour of the car!

is it me or can you still see the outline of where the rear badge was on the boot lid?

overall i think the car is a bit too bazza for my tastes but at the end of the day if you like it then thats what matters

standard black grilles, standard wiper arms and standard rear lights would make a world of difference.

i think its the sunstrip and the alloy wipers which makes it look a tad bazza

oh and the silver grilles

but as i said, if you like it then thats all that matters

oh right all i done was sprayed the wiper arms the same colour as the car got silver wipers, and when i got the tints done i got the sun stip done at the same time!

looking at it again the sun strip does look good with the tinted windows

take a look at this

i want to do that to my front bumper and back! and get rid or the side indercators and side strips (smooth)

thats the way forward

sod the silver grilles you got

get them black again, smooth off the bumper and bang on the black grilles

it would make a world of difference!

I'm not sure! in a way black looks nice cos it splits the silver up but then again the silver looks nice as it blends in with the car!!

I totally agree with robin that with a few subtle touches would suit things a little better, but I'm not here to tell you what do to your car! its a good basis but in my opinion the rear lights and the colour coded wipers let it down a little! With alot of colour coding on a car there is quite a fine line on how much is too much of one colour and i reckon with black grilles and mayby a black vw badge it would break up the silver a tad! What are your plans for the wheels, keeping the standard ones? how low is it gonna be too/?

might leave the wheels standered but spray them black and I'm buyin coilovers off philJ on friday so as low as i can go when there on and finish the boot ill post some more pics!

Not to keen on your grilles and rear lights mate, they would look much better standard! But as people have said, each to their own! A few different touches here and there and what you have got planed it will be okay :thumbsup: By the way wheres the induction kit?

Edited by vdubdav

ye get your bumpers done! i love my bumpers soooo much....

it will all come together though, it takes time to decide what you want to do to your car.

I'm still not 100% happy with mine so i have a few tweeks to make over the winter :badgrin:

new shoes and new hat :badgrin::ninja:

thanks for using my pic robin!!

As I'm from Basingstoke, who did u get to smooth the boot and how much diod it cost?

I'm guessing u hav a solanoid kit to pop it open now?
