Alright lads :smile:

I'm a poor starving student who has just got his grubby mitts on a 1.1 mk3. I've already chucked some clear indicators on it and was wondering where to go next.

I've been able to get a price of about £500 for 15's, a new back box and 40mm drop springs. This sounds bloody amazing to me, except the wheels are Fox ones (anyone got a preference in style - i like the 3's or 5 evo's best). Probably end up going for it anyway! :smile: :smile:

I know they're old and everyone's got em, but i really like the m3 mirrors too. Also after a mondy spoiler, but i haven't got a 2i/rst one on there at the moment. Could be £££££££

I'm also looking for suggestions for things to do. I'm not earning that much so a one-off bodykit or a complete retrim is out of the question. I don't want to go down the "18 year old nova driver"-esque route of having a shiny gearknob as the centerpiece of my motor (sorry to all you young nova drivers out there :grin: maybe it's just me)

Any suggestions would be gratefully received,

Cheers

Marty

How about doing a bit of colour coding??? Paint costs about £5 per can from Halfords. U will need plastic primer, and spray paint.

Hello mate where abouts r u in Bournemouth, I go to uni down there (well, I carry on next year - on placement).

Get rid of the strips down the side.
Get rid of the tube which goes into the air box, replace with a wider air ducting (from halfords etc)
Get down Trents for a 92 - 94 spec interior (goes straight in and looks much better [ERRR] it's all dark as opposed to light grey) - only £60 for the whole lot, including dash!!!

Loads of cheap stuff to do.
Check my site for what I did to mine:
