Looking at my car today i think the front end really needs modifying. I don't like the current bumper - looks to standard and narrow for the car i think. So what you guys suggest - i'm thinking either a GSi bumper or a post 97 front. Or if i can find one maybe an Irmscher Airdam. Would the airdam look out of place on the car - considering the rest of the exterior is standard. Opinions please.
Car at the moment...

eek 300 notes aint a lot but you can do a lot yourself for peanuts - de-badge, loose bump strips, colour code handles etc!! I wouldnt bother changing bumpers etc on such a budget!! Maybe smoked rear lights and side repeaters

I think you should go subtle. big overhanging bad boy bonnet, 16's, v6 brakes, twin 6x4 back boxes, and custom body work. also lower on standard shocks with 40mm springs, fit a 2.0L which has no history and will need stripped down after a few miles.
