if ya cant afford the wheels and lowering at the same time ya may aswell lower it first, so it doesn't look like a dune buggy when ya get some wheels

u can practice on my bits if u like

get some diff door handles and spray ure old ones first and if it dont work out u know not to do it ureself. then go to a garage and get a price for colour coding which im sure will be around the £200 mark for everything

pick some second hand lights and/or grill with the change

And painting and fitting Marc.

I'd lower it first if you're wanting to end up with bigger wheels on it.
