dont worry about the s2000 aerial, just take the jnr hacksaw to your standard one, and cover the end in a blob of black paint, would never know it is ment to be like it is, and the reception is still fine on the standard headunit too.

Depends on your buget mate really, ie 100 pound or 500 pounds, but i know how skint you students are man im sure people at my college think im a drug dealer or something. The only LCR on campus

i had a tonne of money for my corsa. was a gorgeous car, but needs must.

loan comes soon so be ok again but i want to travel this summer so gonna spend it all on plane tickets.

Just wanted say about £100 worth of mods to make it look a bit more special.

think i might go get some paint and spray the black parts, look a little better then

Get yourself some good cleaning products, tyre blacker, back to black etc and give it a good shine up, works a treat. The stubby aerial is a free mod, and makes it look a little less like a remote controlled car. How about a new bulb set as said earlier? Sunglasses holder? New mat's or headunit? all fairly cheap stuff mate, oh and a magic tree

Fitting body coloured door strips isn't too costly.

Take a nose around a scrap yard to see if you can find any bumpers, you should be able to pick up a rear bumper for around 70quid - and if it's already the right colour you're laughing.

You should be able to pick up some MK1 cupra wheels for pretty cheap as well.

I already have a bunch of high quality cleaning stuff. Megs all the way friend owns a halfords near reading so get 20% off and 3 for 2..


thinking of doing the bulbs as it looks way cooler what bulbs do y'all recomend.

the ones everyone says are good are osram silver stars, or phillips blue visions. But for a 100 quid you can get an HID upgrade. There is a link on here somewhere. Have a search mate, has been discussed many times before, and there are loads of threads on them.
