Finally managed to get a few pictures today, just wanted to post it so others can see and give criticism(constructive  )
Its a 1.4 16v CDX, 5 Door (i prefer 5 door as im a lazy f*ck who doesnt like to keep getting in and out to let people in and out!)
I've had it about 3 months now. I've never been very clued up on car modding but finally have the money to look at doing some stuff now. Not to sure how far i want to go as i've never really liked cars that look to over the top, i'm just into little subtle changes etc to make it look a bit better.
As you can see it already has lexus lights on it but recently I have gone off them big time, i got them cheap off a friend so didnt waste much on them but really going off them now 
Pics are below! I know some stuff i need to get to improve the look like clear indicators for example etc, and would like windows tinted but not 100% on the legal limits you can go as i always hear a different story from people. Also wanna look at a new backbox to make it sound a bit louder, but not to sure what to look for as in best makes of exhaust!
Adam !

Pre 97 Irmscher bumpers! Very cool, and pretty rare too aren't they? 
I'd paint the bumper and arch plastics matt/satin black, not colour coded. That'll keep the look of your nice bumpers.
Change the rear lights, some nice 16" wheels and a bit of a drop... then you're pretty much sorted I'd say!

Hello mate.
Where abouts in West Sussex are you from?
Car looks pretty tidy - got a good one with the Irmscher bumpers - pretty rare!!
Just needs a few little touches doing to it to make it
Debadge, Punto Rear Wiper, Smoked Side Repeaters, Smoked Headlights, Standard Rear Lights, Alloys and lowered a bit and jobs a good 'un!

they are just smoked standards - if you kept to the dark and smoked theme, yes.
However, knowing the Police in this area, I wouldn't advise it tbh - you'd probably be getting pulled pretty often.

lol true, altho i used to have a fiesta before which had some and i never got pulled so might risk it, nothing major can happen if i do get pulled anyway can it?
