the exhaust was fitted by a company in sheffield called exhausts uk - they are cobra specialists i think? its all st/st back to the cat plus a 25 yr warranty which is nice...

The plates were from www.theplateman.com - £30.00 + delivery (oh and the black surrounds were extra) very quick though and they are really good quality.

looks like you've done all you wanted to do then V15NEV looks a cracking motor, body kits is very tasteful and not too chavvy would love to put it on mine but spraying is extortionate so its out the window.

i think probably the nicest 1.4 around thats been modded imo

Cheers mate, the list is still growing though now...

1. Tint rear lights red - should make them a bit more subtle.
2. New CV Joints - I know boring, but a neccesity at the mo...
3. New grab handles should be here this week
4. Yearly service and new cambelt time.

Then i might sell it and look for a cupra depending on how well i save some pennies over the next few months....

Does the spending ever stop :lol:

i know it is a gamble slightly but i can always clean them up if they look poo... or just hunt some standard ones down... worth giving this a try though cos imo they look smart on the grey one above

Youll need some clear coat laquer to make em shiney after, but not until you are happy with the tint.

can't wait to see this done, i think it should look good even though the car is red. Attacking my rears with a bit of spray is deffinately on the "to do" list.

Cheers caveo, i read your thread on how you did yours and also others and everyone says lots of laquer, so i will use plenty
