What are your opinions on what could be done to improve the back of my car. it looks like its missing something.

i have a spoiler which i think i might fit, and im thinking of an oval exhaust?
Anyone got any ideas?

Semi smooth boot and (the spoiler which you mentioned) would be nice. Since you've de-badged it, a semi smooth boot would complete the look of the rear. The exhaust which is on looks fine to me mate

How much would it cost roughly to semi-smooth the boot?

Not sure tbh mate, but the money you'd save by not getting lights and a new exhaust should easily cover most of it

It just seems you've de-badged it and the back has a smooth look to it, and the wiper kind of stands out imo. Get rid of that and the bootlock and you're onto a winner imo

not buying smoked lights would save me a bit as i was thinking of buying some which would probably cost a bit if i found some,
ive got around £300 to spare so i thought i might improve my car a bit,

keep the opinions coming please

It looks ok just now - doesnt really need anything so its spending money for the sake of spending money.....in my eyes at least. Its your decision though but you did ask - do as you wish

Makes perfect sense mate if that's what you want to do. Honestly though with £300 right now if i was you i'd mabe get the bumpers smoothed and sprayed, and get some lowering springs maybe, or go for the smooth boot. Totally up to you fella.

(Personally if i had £300 spare, i'd go and book a last minute holiday to Greece

)

Have you tried your local bodyshops? Go and get a quote, tell them you're on a bidget but don't state how much money you have

And get some lowering springs, your car will look totally different after that
