Hey guys,
Just got finished on fitting my exhaust and making sure everything is tight and sorted out the wiring for my sub as i moved it around and my wire was too short . Hopefully L plates will be off in a month's time







Drives mudflap has been taken off too. Give me your thoughts

Lose the badges on the back and side, but keep the rubbing strips on.

Iv had the car since september'ish.
I thought about loosing the side badges but the laquer has slighty come off on the passengers door by the badge i think so im a bit weary of doing it.
Exhaust is only a backbox. Was corsachris12's off here

Looks good - 13" Softstars are cool. 
Get the black plastics sorted out, and a nice wash and polish. Will completely transform the look of the car!

I tried to wash it the other day and realised we have run out of car shampoo lol
What sort of power were you running through them though lol iv only got 150w amp for now.
You got any other pictures of your exhaust mate? From what i can on my phone it looks very similar. Its only loud when accelerating hard or past 3k revs.

Tuck the amp away, best place is behind one of the rear door cards ! Then you claim another 3rd of your boot space back 
Looks nice tho,k wash it and polish it...

Get the plastics done, then maybe add some subtle interior mods while you're still learning.
