Hi, decided to make a readers ride thread now since i've got quite a few mods done to it, so here goes :)

This is how it looked when i first picked her up:

This is how she looks at the moment:

The first thing i did was got some LED side lights off eBay for the grand price of £4.50!

Next i decided it was time to spray the mirrors red to match the car, so i got my dad to do it :p

.. After a few months of neglect i decided to treat her to a C2 Stubby aerial (£2 from the local scrappie) and a new Rear wiper, so picked up a Polo wiper on eBay for £16.00 with cap,arm and blade. It took a lot of agro to get it fit but got there in the end after filing the cap and bottom of the arm, though the blade misses a big patch in the middle of the window :( Anyone know how i can fix this?

Then i tried on my mates Audi TT Competition alloys to see how they looked and like d them but found they rubbed a bit too much when cornering or tackling the huge speed bumps they seem to be putting up by me :(

Then the most up-to date mod i did was i put some 16" Seat Sport alloys on it yesterday that i picked up on ebay for £200 (delivered) with tires, but lost the bloody seat logo on one of the centre caps after getting it power washed by the local poles and bulgarians the day i put them on!!! , nice one eh? Now i need to fork out for a new one :( Anyway here's some upto date pics:

True, but there are plenty of other things that you can do, look at Matt, 18 and only had the car 5 mins and he is already getting ahead of me!

I'm thinking of putting facelift bumpers on but was wondering if it would look OK without being lowered and with the 16" Sport wheels?

My Sidestrips are in the process of being sprayed right now by my dad lol. Want the handles doing next but aren't too sure how to get them off, any advice? Thanks

are you spraying the sidestrips on the car or did you buy a new set?

I'm doing them on the car! I've masked and covered the entire side though. Works out a lot cheaper that way and saves the hassle of ordering new ones and taking the old ones off :)

I had to get mirrors painted whilst on the car as well because they wouldn't fold in to get the covers off because they're too seized!:lol:
