Ive had my car from new since september 2010.. at the time i put a set of black alloys on it and tinted the windows, I'm now getting fed up of the look of it so want to do some stuff to it to freshen it up a little, if anybody has any ideas i would very much appreciate it!
also just got the car detailed so its ready to rock..
so far I've:
painted the callipers and drums green
green dmb overlays
ordered a new shape grill
ordered climair wind deflectors
a few decals
stripped the interior dash plastics tonyt and gina paint them green tomorrow
il keep the pictures updated

Looks smart, wish i went for white
My drums & calipers are lime green too haha, getting black alloys start of next month hopefully
It may be over-used, but that's because it's a lush look
Maybe add some more coloured detailing? Green lip on the alloys? Wrap your roof & mirrors in a different colour? The list goes as far as your imagination does

Thanks!! What colour did you go for? Thanks for the ideas think I myt do the roof and mirrors
Can anybody help me as to what all bulbs I need to make them whiter? I changed them already but the sidelights look brilliant as there extremely white/blue but when I put the full lights on they look normal? And fog lights?

Agree with Sean on the green lip around the alloys, think that would look pretty smart! Could also do the wing mirrors green and maybe the exterior plastics gloss black
maybe some lowering springs if that's the look you're after. Just a couple of ideas there haha

Might just do the green lip on the wheels
and il do the plastics gloss black.. Would love to lower it but couldn't afford the insurance on it then
thanks for the ideas!!

I went for silver in the end, as i didn't think i'd wash the car enough to keep it looking good if i chose white, but turns out now i have a car i actually like, i wash it twice a week if it needs it and is dirty enough. I have Osram Nightbreakers Plus, they're amazing and only £13 for a pair on ebay (£30 rrp), but even those look yellowy when put next to some led sidelights. I think HID's would be the only solution really. Everyone is different, but all my mods only cost an extra £50 then around the same extra to cover the mods aswell, ring up and get a quote
