keep it simple i say u can spend £'ssssssssss in the long run thats the trouble with basic models like ours!

all looking very very good so far, get those red lights off change to sxi rear lights, order an SRi lower grill and do a cold air feed instead of spending loads getting fogs put in, i love the grill done in black leave that, get some facelift lights (ebay) and lower the car 30mm on ebiachs, irmscher back box as well and rear spoiler with c/c boot handle, irmscher rear bumper and very very nice!

You will get there in the end i am almost there with mine lol :)
