Had a play around with one of Jasons pics i think, from GTi Inters.

Photoshopped, chrome around the grille to black, lowered, number plate bit smoothed out and got rid of the fog light. Just for a play, thought it came out ok.

Oh yeah new addition which is real are the wind deflectors. I can't thank Loz enough for helping me put these on and luckily bringing his spare!

Thanks guys, indeed a new job within the same company. Pretty good money too because of my experience with things like photoshop and other programmes.

Haven't felt so nervous since passing my driving test when i got the phone call ''Charlotte could you come to my office when you have a minute'' I've never had a smile so big afterwards!

Wind deflectors were from amazon, think the guy sells them on ebay too.

Heres the link Adam;

Thanks Loz :)

I think i'll keep my fog lights though lol.

Love the look of the back lowered. Hopefully 35mm springs will make it sort, not quite, of look like that.

firstly, congrats on the job front.must be a right weight of your shoulders :)

Like the photoshop (you weren't kidding about being good at it!), smoothing the numberplate looks really good, and the de-foglighting would be easy to do as you could just get the surrounds from an S spec.

Thank you :) Massive weight off my shoulders for sure!

Haha, i wouldn't say i was a great at photoshop probably basic stuff, but thanks :) To be honest, i'd rather keep the fogs. Never had them on my previous car lol, so for now they're staying. Just thought i'd get rid of them. Got rid of Arafs on his boc too and smoothed his plate out aswell haha.

Decided to give it a quick clean today after going to Inters and becoming quite gross thanks to flies and weird dirty muddy rain.

Also put my pressed plates on which i got at Inters.
Lets hope no thieves clone my numberplate after showing them on here.

Taken my plates off now ;) bye bye thieves lol.

Got a SEAT plate surround off ebay which secures it better than tape.

Wind deflectors, slightly better pic.

And, one little touch. Got rid of the massive storm trooper sticker. It was too big and I started thinking it look poop.
So bought myself a better and cute stormtrooper. Yes, cute :p

Loving the plate surround. Might be getting some of those wind deflectors, loving their look!
Pressed plates not my thing though, but it still looks good. Startrooper is cool!
Overall a rocking little motor!

Not much to do with the car now, just side skirts and lowered i think.
