well.. thats how she stands now, driving test on wednesday :P then i can go get some stuff for her!

ideas :

Keeping the black bumpers ( back to black <3)
tinting the windows
spraying my rims black ( get them 2night and they was free :P )
Red drums that show through my black 5 spokes
tinting rear lights
got red & black seat covers coming tue or wed.
get an exhaust system (last on my list due to £290 1st payment on insurance)


so that will be my tidy project. not sticking a fat kit on her for show reasons.
will just be tidying her up at 1st, going the the black and red colour scheme.

what you guys think ? cheers.

nice car matey , i totally agree you should keep bumpers black,. wheels would look nice black to. however keeping in mind if your planning to lower your car your off set will need to be 45-49ET so wouldnt be any point spraying (id sell them and buy vauxhall ones) but if your not planning to lower there a nice set. just clean it get it shining and tint the windows , dnt tint rear lights , and drums/brakes will look lush red . :)

yep good starting points mate. just wash ,t-cut then wax to get it shiny, then your usual back to black ( get the bottle one and use a rag to apply rub it in hard cause they dnt look like they bin done in a while . ( further down the line they would look amzing sprayed black the same colour as alloys :) ) . are you buying a induction kit e.g pipercross/k&n ? a good second hand backbox will be great aswell get em cheap off ebay. keep us updated
