things to do... get number plate cases and straighten the front plate ... coulour code grill and fog inserts also fit my other set of freshly refurbed vrs alloys in gloss black the ones in the piks are winter wheels (taty)

things i want to do but not sure witch ones to do first .. vrs front and back bumpers .... vrs interior ...

please go easy on me ino its only a 1.2 and the money spent could of got a real vrs but insurance is a problem so im with the 1.2 group 1 insurance for a while plus i still like i it can make it looks just like a real vrs but the 0.60 will never be the same lol

any coments opinions or advice would be great :)

Coilovers and vRS bumpers are definitely the next step IMO.

Colour coded grill is a good call, also handles and front plate surround? Pressed plates?

I'd leave out plate surrounds.

I'd also go with graphite grey/anthracite wheels over gloss black. Gloss black never work unless the paint is freshly cleaned and polished, and that only last 20 miles on the road.

All my opinion of course it's your car do what you want.

Like the tinted rear windows.

Subwoofer, upgrade speakers and amp them? :)

i totaly agree with graphite grey powdercoated wheels that was my origional plan but i found a place that did gloss black on a crazy deal either £50 a wheel in graphite grey for dipping repairing shot blast sand blast and laquer and bake or a crazy deal of gloss black and white for £20 and wheel for exact same service just limited to the two coulours i had to go with it it was two much of a deal im thinking of getting the winter ones on the car at the moment done graphite grey with silver flakes

plus i allways fort pressed plate were eligal ??? as saw some on a polo and looked very tasty

thanks the windows do set the car of nicely plus i have a amp and sub allready in my boot but just not wired up i have ordered the wiring kit but its still not arived i think it might be because of cristmas but its only a 12' with built in amp but should sound pretty good i hope lol

UK pressed plates, the legal ones.

How have you got a silver grill surround around the chrome bit?

Vrs bumpers would be the next best mod I think. ;)

My original grill had a missing fin from a little bird was stuck in my grill for 2 days and I didn't notice lol so sourced s new complete grill I'm getting it all Coulour coded very soon as it looks strange with silver surround I don't like it so that's the next thing on the long list of tweeks to do lol and thanks for advice :)

Dubmeister do legal pressed plates, but some thick coppers pull people over for them. Same with cars with legal DRL's factory fitted in fog light position, and factory fitted Xenons.

1. Colour Code the grille.

2. Centre Caps on the Alloys

3. Lower it on springs or coilovers...

All depends what your budget it!
