Right here goes, my car is going in the body shop asap supposed to be in last week but still no joy, anyway been speaking to me mate and he said the lad in the body shop wants to do everything on me car rather than doing front and skirts mirrors and then coming back in a few weeks when I can afford it, I c what he means it will be more cost effective for me and he will save more time.

I have a red gsi basically the body of it has not been touched aprt from a wiper conversion. The Karnage front and skirts are already at the body shop waiting to go on with m3 mirrors, what else shall I do to it, I am defo going for the f50 vent bad boyed, karnage rear spoiler, then was thinking either spraying the roof rails to colour coordinate the car or smoothing them in but worried about price. What do u guys think ? I am leaving the rear bumper for now cos I only have about 500 and will have to lend the rest and its looking like its going to be in the refion of 8 - 900 already appreciate your views here sorry about the long thread guys heres a couple of pics of me motor now

get the tailgate smoothed, and remove the rear wiper. Would make the rear look less cluttered

as for roof rails, smoothing would look cool but to get it done right is a pain in the arse which takes a long time and as such costs a fortune, Id recommend just having them painted, cause its hardly nething, Think a mate paid £40-£50 to have it done
