Awsome conversion WIllay is doing one now too.

Remove rear spoiler
Smoked rear lights
Black front mesh
SRi Mirrors and a tad lower would really transform it for little money?

Oh and paint the rear drums black

Nice thumbs:

I've had bigger shits than those numberplates

Fairplay though, styling isn't to my taste, but would happily own it!

Would look good on some White Comp MO's or Speedline Turinis.

I actually saw a Black C on 17" Speedline Turinis when I was up in London the other week looked

Tbh i am not the person to take an intrest in kitted up cars but i really like that because everyone thinks kitted cars mainly hav 1.2s etc in them

Only problem with it is loose the big rear wing and buy an Irmscher one
