Always wanted to put a Steiny lip spoiler on back
Never wanted a GSi kit because everybody knows that they never made a GSi 5 door and it would be pretend. Deitrich (Spelling) front bumper would be ace too with some Steiny skirts.

If i'd have kept going I would have:-

*Engine work (maybe swap for a LET) + chrome the nuts off the engine bay.
*Possibly put a cage in - would have to be a custom one as I researched a lot into cages and none 'off the shelf' would work with the 5 door.
*300mm 4 pot front brakes & rear disk conversion + master cylinder conversion.
*Hydraulic fly-off hand brake.
*Respray/tidy up some of the bodywork to make it 100% immaculate.
*Done a proper tidy boot install for all that nice ICE.
*Flocked the dash and carbon door cards.
*Fitted a rally steering wheel with a little dit of dish (40mm ideal).

Just some ideas Chris...
