Mine is same. I hope I will chrange bumpers to newer with sharp corners. Plus spoiler, new wheels and maybe tuning lamps. Additional arches from eBay look nice too.
What is Yours opinion about these external modifications?

What bumpers are you talking about? Any modifications can look good or bad. Its just what you feel about them that matters.
The mods you talk about sound good to me. I havent seen the additional arches. Are they the GT arches? If so I personaly am not a fan of them

Front I think will look better. The rear doesnt look much different to what I have and like I said I am not a fan of the GT arches.

Right update for you all had a little fun with tortion bar on sunday and managed to get the back end dropped. Finished at like 9.30 in the evening so found me a car park and got a couple of snaps. (Yes there are 2 people in the back but it does not budge when they get out :D)
Doing the fronts tonight so expect an update tomorrow with some pics of the whole lot lowered

Fronts have finally been done but it hasnt gone down very much  I think she needs a little helping hand to get lower 
Also got an ashley back box off ebay a while back for the grand total of £40 posted. This is also fitted.
Saw a thread on here where someone has got the little map reading light and it made me want one so got one off ebay for £13 and fitted that too.
Swapped my freebie JVC for an Alpine the other day much better on the sound.
Now lastly my best b.uy so far is the GTI rear bumper for the grand total of £10. But I need to go and collect it still.
Pictures to follow at around 5 ish as I will get some when I get home from work.
P.S thanks for the comments glad you like it so far.

Will look good with the sports front bumper mate, and it looks better but as you say could do with a tad lower on the front. And what posessed you to drive into a river!? Lol

Yeah I know but its finding one. I got the rear bumper for £10. Like the title says its a cheap project lol.
Dont want to spend too much as its not that special for me.
Definatly need to get the front down. May look into coilovers.
Oh and its not a river.... I like to class it as a puddle and the answer to that is I dont know thought it may look cool haha.
