Decided to keep for a bit...As it ticks all my boxes, fast,comfy and safe...But to stop me getting bored I need to do stuff 
As it stands at moment:
Cobra suspension
18" KEi wheels
MSdesigns grill
Smoked front lights
Clear bumper lenses all round
Smoked wind deflectors
Ind kit
Dump valve
Boost gauge
Magnex backbox
other wee bits and bobs
new bulb has been fitted
Main thing I want is a remap but not in the next 6 months are going to be able to splash out £550 in one go  (due to house renovation etc)
SO ppl come on need opinions etc......
Smoked window tints?

Is the suspension full kit or just springs? If so maybe uprated shocks?
Colour code the door handles?
Tart the engine bay up?
Save for a remap?

I'd like my windows tinted, but from what i've seen legal tints aren't worth it and i wouldn't spend £200+ getting something the police are gonna tell to rip out.

The black bits are 'grey' they are meant to be grey..Thats why I got the anthracite wheels etc to go with the grey bits...
Just springs marc but the standard T4 shocks are well upto the job...
Yeah I would want tints to be legal if I got them...can get them all round for £120 though.
Thought about gear knob and handbrake etc to tart up interior...
Richard the mats are genuine volvo ones and fit in and clip and don't move etc...
Nath on all my searches never found aftermarket rear lights..
Looked into a FMIc but a big job to try and fit a universal one...
Colin i'm trying down to 10 day now...
I think Full system or tints.....Gear knob and handbrake handle but would need to be good ones are not wanting cheapo crap ones...
Brett what you mean? do you think I look about 60

Wouldn't match the rest of the interior though, would probably make it look chavvy.
I'd definately save up for remap, i'm down to 10 a day to get cash for a sound system!!!!!!
TBH i wouldn't do much to it. only tuning mods tbh.

Surely the volume is varied according to the amount of boost that's being run. But it is a high pitched one, best sounding of the lot, but still a bit gay. Cost me £200 that piece of crap.
