Took me ages to decide what exhaust i wanted but once i heard my friends exhaust i knew i wanted that one on my little beast!!

This exhaust has also added an extra 15BHP, according to the mechanic that fitted it!!

I think 15bhp is a bit out lol you will be looking at something like 5-10, What are you doing to it next? You will have to get some lowering srings it will look really nice then.

Yeah was thinking of getting some lowering springs, i did think he was exaggerating abit cus my friend said the mechanic that fitted his says it only added 10 at the most.

Getting a spoiler for it next.

Anybody have any clues on how much it would cost for a complete respray, i want it black all over!!

Not too sure at the moment as the exhaust is quite low to the floor, and i want to leave room for a bumper to go around it!

Pay up to £1000 for a good spray.

I got quoted, £200 to have just a spoiler fitted and sprayed and the wing mirrors done :(

To be honest with ya i dont 100% like the lights myself they were a pressie off my bro, im currently looking at gettin these ones http://www.motor-world.co.uk/kroozin/sh ... od_id=9398

Ive changed my mind on changing the colour today, after i got told the price i though fook that ill just get the black bits sprayed up, not too sure on what bumper kit at the mo theres quite a few about!
