I like it looks much more professional than mine.
Im not too keen on the grille trim or badge being done personally.
Also like what you have done with the lights, but I thought tinting headlights was illegal?

It possibly is, not too sure.

I've ordered some cheapo tints from china for the rear lights gonna see how that looks, and will probably be painting the calipers also, unsure what colour though, blue I guess? :p
Probably wont be able to get speed blue in heat resistant paint though

ah cool' you'll have to let me know how it goes! I like the rear's not tinted. But that's just me.

I'd go for blue would look great. I think red would too... if you get the right colour red not to orangeish'

like blue Clio RS's have the red calipers and they look really good I think.

looking into exhausts now. as you can probably guess from the other thread. either long life. £200 but said £299.00 from the cat back so I might go for that.

or AAS in Newcastle do custom work so I've e-mailed for a quote. Gonna go with whoevere's cheaper to be honest :)

Thought i'd mock up how blue brake calipers would look, not too bad imo.
I used the halfords blue caliper paint as a reference (which is apparently a sporty blue similar to VXR calipers)

A drop & skirts would finish the look of.
Looks awesome in black :)

Got the skirts on BUT....... the dealers fitted the 5 door version by mistake :( I made sure when ordering I wanted the 3 door version

They going to replace it for the 3 doors version free of charge :D , looks ok tho the 5 door version

I would leave the 5 door ones on, they look better in my opinion ;)

Purchased some crystal clear side repeaters last week, arrived today, got rid of the ugly fried egg look :)
Here's a pic but still looks a bit orange as I pressed the key at same time as taking it :s
Also added some silvertec chromed bulbs in there.

Should really have got some smoked ones, but may tint them when my film arrives.

How much was it to get you're wheels painted ?

I'm not 100% sure. when I got the car he said would I like any extras. I was going for the black and red theme so I asked if they could paint my brakes vinyl the roof, paint the wingmirror caps and spray the wheels and them little black centre caps.

all in all I think it was close to £400 from the dealer for all of that so I couldn't say indevidually.

Didn't even know the dealership would do that type of stuff
