Not looking to spend a fortune, just want something thats gonna make the car stand out.

All idea's welcome, not things like respray though

The car as it stands has 15" TSW Evo R's on dropped 60mm, got a reletively loud system on it, stereo kicks some base, front grill is meshed with colour coded sunstrip in star silver. Had rubbing strips removed, and has a noticeable standard plate reading R122 BKX.

So add to that if you can,
Cheers,
Sean.

dont think colour coding arches is gonna make his car stand out

its up2u tbh, if u want people to look around when u drive past, zorst or induction kit does the trick.

if ur talkin when the car is parked up etc, ur lookin to pay a fair bit of £££

think neon ligths, make a car standout. as long as u can actually see the nean tube it looks wicked. colour coding the bumbers does make a car look alot better, i have done it myself and it looks so much better that gray plastic, i mean anythings better than plastic. yer back to the neons, they are really cheap now to what they used to be so that i one option if u like that look. maybe tinting ur windows in siver, umm maybe bigger alloys, but then ur taking a lot of money.
hope that helped

I am happy with the loudness of the exhuast, induction kit could be louder I suppose its only a K&N 57i.

I aint going for neons, not even a consideration at the moment, just not my cup of tea really.

The car stands out a bit when parked up as it is because its stupidly low.

Those Lexus rears would look sweet I think.

I dont know if a dark colour of rim would suit my car, would anyone be prepared to do a small photoshop challenge to make my rims darker for me if I p0rovide a piccy. Got to get one refurbed because of kerbing anyway.

from lookin at the pics, if it was my car, id go get some rear vectra door handles an color code them, color code the arches as imo they look odd with no rub strips with black arches, color code mirrors, all can be done urself with spray cans! if u can afford it get the gsi spoiler. all stuff that will make ur can look better! also the lexus rear lights that juni0r has wood look good on ur car, consider standard mud flaps too, make the back look better, again imo, some ppl disagree!

Already meshed up my front grill, did it myself, looks alright, and cost me nothing.

Cheers for the photoshop mate, it already is lowered 60mm all round, the wheels look sweet with the tints but I was thinking of mirror tint so I dont think they would match up then. But its definatly something to consider, cheers pal.

i like ur mota Makarus,

pesonally i don't like lexis lights, but some clear ones would look quite smart.

tints would look pretty good, sumin like light smoke all round

and a GSI spoiler will make it look better too...

bit tbh if i saw it driving down the road i'd look at it cause it looks nice n subtle.

also you don't need to colour code it in silver cause every fuker has done that,

could try sumin new like a titanium colour off of the new mercs ( on your black plastic bits).
