Yeah I think it looks high.. definitely gonna lower it but I dunno how low to take it yet. I was only thinking 40mm all round but a friend thinks I should drop it 60mm all round. I'm not sure about the wheels either, ATM I'm just thinking about referbing the stock ones and getting them sprayed black or gun-metal grey.

I'm also thinking little things ATM just like window tints, black angel lights and I would love to put front fog lights in but i can't find a suitable bumper yet!
Any other suggestions welcome :D

sounds good, id defoo go down the black and blue scheme, well its up2 you but i would recommend just looking through pictures of lowered cars and see what you think looks best. but aslong as you dnt go down the road of silly bodykits and whale fin spoilers it will look sweeeet . why dont you fit universal fog lights in the lower grill will look sweet . i currently have l.e.d lights fitted there but will be getting bigger ones shortly, but keep us updated in a project log :)

Hahahaha! Nah stupid body-kits aren't my style :P
I wanna try and keep it all as simple as possible but make it look smart, I don't want something that is WAY over the top kinda thing.

And where do you get these universal lamps from??

goooooooood lol !! and you can get them from most motostores ( halfords/motorworld ) or even ebay . cnt remember how big the gap in the lower grill is so would measure that first but think you would be able fit sumat like 3-4inch fog/spot light. but apart from doing that the only decent bumber that has foglights in the gsi bumper but they are pritty exspensive and would require you to colour code all the arches and rear bumper aswell.

Cheers for the advice fella, I'll have a look on the bay for some of them then. Or even take a trip down to Aylesford Halfords see what they can do for me. (Y)
And as for the gsi bumper i think i'll pass. I actually prefer the black trim, looks smarter and cleaner.
