Get a job urm well it depends on what kind of things you have laying round, you could colour code your bump strips and badge for pretty cheap if you done it yourself, would be a good start imo.

Belive me im trying, got an interview on friday. Just every penny I get my hands on goes straight in as fuel. And im just fed up of it as im sure a lot of people are. Could probably stretch to a tin of paint to do the bumper strips etc. Any recommendations how to do them? What with?

Take a look in the how to section, there's lots of cheap easy mods in there which will give you some ideas to be going on with and the there's a couple for spraying badge and bump strips etc.

To many people add cheap & nasty chav crap to their cars as it is, so put the £1.50 in your piggy bank & save till you can afford a worthwhile mod or upgrade. Till then, keep it clean, legal & standard.

Get a double cheeseburger from mcdonads or if your feeling really daring then you could gamble it on a scratchcard

I would wait until you've got a job mate and then do some really worth while mods. They don't come cheap...
