removing rubstrip and stick ons is a peice a p1ss m8. get a old credit card/top up card and peel it off . will be left with glue and tha . best way to get it off is to get a product called 'sticky stuff remover'' from halfords and simply spray on and leave for 5 mins or however long it says on can. this will turn glue all soggy and jus use card to wipe it off . then clean the car . however dnt use: spirits.t-cuts any think like that. good luk 8)

tbh i wouldnt change it much. if i were you id keep it nice and basic dnt go with any kind of body kit , having basicaly the same car as you but mine bein 1.2sxi id say keep the black wheels . lower it , get tints ( poffesionally fitted. self tinting is cheap and sh1t looking.!!!) and jus de-badge . will look sweet. then if you want do more after tha . fully colour code bumpers and arches. 8) :D

go simple with it

lower it
set of vauxhall cesaros(cav wheels)
small exhaust upgrade go with sportex
keep standard lights
slight tint on windows
maybe upgrade to 288mm discs and v6 callipers
smooth / exchange for tigra scuttle panel
laguna front splitter

then when this is done you can concentrate on the engine
