thats a nice car there mate, looks sweet from the front! i think your money needs to be spent on the back pal, new lights, irmy ones would look good but their pricey though! i would look into maybe changing your exhaust for something like a single 3.5" round or an oval one! would look good then, but overall it looks fair nice as it is mate!

how much are the irmy ones? am i right in thinking they look more or less identical to mhw's?
the pic doesnt do the exhaust any justice, looks better when you actually see it.

You could get some Irmscher rear lights in that budget You could get some other stuff too if you get them from German Ebay. (GTE Motorsport is the name of the trader).

They are better quality as they don't go mirky like the MHW's. Mine cost about £90-£100.

Add it to another few hundred quid and make a trip to Wizards of Nos.

Or spend it some tanks of lovely petrol.
