what ever u do, dont bloody change those wheels in any way!
remove rubbing strips
cut ariel in half (it still works, trust me!)
take mud flaps off
put your side repeaters on
- all of the above are free!
lexmaul grill
deep splitter
euro headlights
new rear wiper or
take wiper and boot lock off
slight window tint
mesh bottom grill (black mesh)
lower it more
- all of the above not too expensive.
thats a few things for u to think about, as far as black rear lights are concerned i'm not a fan, need to break the black up a little and standard light are cool anyway i think!
here my car, fairly similar to yours.

I like both those above.
The only bits id do to it is to colour code the remaining plastics like door handles and fit a subtle exhaust, like a scorpion imola 3" round exhaust system.

they do actually look quite good, agree about the subtle exhaust.
my car has been dirty, but never that bad! look at how grey the arches are, someone's got alot of work to do.

if i remove the rub stipe will the pint under it be a different colour?
by the way it polishes up a lot better than that!
mite lower her another 40 or just 20 mm ie put 60mm springs or 80mm in her!
GSi skirts?
