looking good. but imo you should de-wiper if its euro, also the bonnet you should get real carbon or carbon skinned instead of vinyl as you cant gloss the vinyl. only other thing imo is film your rears and mask your front lights
will look proper menacing then

I'm planning to get morette lights for the front and M3's for the back but with no job it takes a long time to save up for anything because I have to wait for birthdays and Christmas. No plans to dewiper because I don't see the point of removing one of the cars functions.
Total shopping list is as follows
M3 rear lights
Morette front lights
BBS's or Lenso BSX's
Coilovers
Then I've got to sort out a decent boot install, because at the moment I'm running cheap speakers with no amp, but again no job=no money so it's a slow moving project

They do go straight on but you need 205 bolts I think, I had steel wheels before and the bolts weren't long enough, 206 alloy bolts might be though, and yeah they should fit a 1.1

They might be expensive but they'll completely change the look of the car, would definitely lower it before you decide to buy wheels... Makes a massive difference and you're not really gonna pull off the new wheels if it isn't low over them, won't look right. Wouldn't bother with Morettes until it's at least lowered... They're not very 'euro' anyway but whatever floats your boat.
Stance first, other aesthetic bits like Morette lights second.
TBH I've done it myself, you buy the cheaper mods first because well, they're cheap, but then you never save up the money for the big impact mods that really change the cars appearance because you're spending it on other little bits and pieces all the time.
Your money though at the end of the day.

How is it rally? It's a work in progress so as soon as I can get a job there will be major changes, but at the moment, progress is slow
