    Agree with matt, get it lowered and some colour coded bumpers.

    I'd personally change the alloys for some anthracite gt3's or coupe's, lower it about 40mm-50mm, and tint the headlights

    Ruuude.

    I cant get on the thread, im not a Member unfortunately

    Also, Iv'e just picked up a back bumper, a pair of sideskirts and colour coded wing mirrors, now I just need a front bumper for cheap, then should all be colour coded

    And im not sure lowering it would really be a great option now. I had one friend in the back today... It scraped on the wheel arches really bad... Only option I can think would be to down size in alloys?

    I'll probably keep the thread updated as soon as another modification is done, too see what you guys think.

    Thanks.

    Tinted headlights is a good shout. Wheels must be the wrong offset if rubbing. My 16s would never rub on a 60mm drop. A gt or abarth spoiler will give the backside alot more character.

    And a quick note that them bumpers are nice and easy to smooth.

    Here you go mate, I only did the front badge.


    I also have a set of smoked standard headlights, the lens on the drivers side needs to be replaced due to a crack, so i'll be shifting them for a cheaper price. Interested?

    As what Dan said, those O.Z. 16s never rubbed at all.

    Someone told me that tinted headlights arn't good for the night time :P But, you guys know better!

    What do you mean by the wrong offset?

    A spoiler is a good idea! I never thought of that. Thanks.

    Also, thanks for the pic chet, that really sways me, it looks great imo, and thanks for the offer on the lights, but with the money iv'e been spending recently, im pretty skint now

    Thanks.

    It all depends on where the individual sprays the headlight, obviously over the lens it's going to hinder the light.

    There's a how to guide about this topic, if you were a member you would see how to get the job done correctly. Look at my smoked angels, the lens is clear, however certain parts of the light unit inside have been smoked out.

    Hope that clears things up for you.

    How much did you pay for the car?? The amount of money your going to be putting into it with your list your better off getting a 1.2 16v sporting. They are already lowered, they are all one colour and the interior is a lot nicer.
