i got a 1.2 8v corsa, which looks pretty wank standard! i have lexus lights, debadged it including new grille, got all the grey bits painted body colour! Stereo is complete already and parts of the dash have been painted up with interior neons!
I dnt know where else to start tho wiv limited funds being a student everything is well expensive!! I dnt want an ovaly modded car that stands out loads, jus subtile changes that makes the car look trick.
i looked at exhausts, suspension and window tints as the nxt mod, ne other ideas?

Smooth the lines out of the bumpers and get rid of the tow hooks. Lower it 60mm on some 16" alloys. Get a nice back box, something like a small oval or a twin exit. Badboy the bonnet slightly and extend it over the grille. Get some light smoke window tints. Colour code the roof rails. Fit a GSi or Saxo spoiler...

well if your skint have a look on here or your local cruise site for a set of secondhand rims.
Also its worth sorcing a sport interior normally can pick one up between £50-£100.
Little mods like clear side repeaters are also a cheap and better looking than the standrad orange ones,talk to a guy called koolkorsa think he sells them for about 7 or 8 quid

have you colour coded the door handles/boot lock/scuttle panel? Rmove the rubstrips, change the mirrors, as said get a new interior (the grey interiors are pap compared to a nice black one). Get a GSi spoiler.
All these things arent majorly expensive, but do make a difference to the overall look of the car .

No. You lower the car before or at the same time you get alloys. Unless you are trying to look like an idiot...

are sport interiors available at scrappys or do you normally have to buy them off people on here and such?
