Its the only complaint i have! I'm not a big fan of green and i guess i'd like it looking slightly more girlie, without going over the top lol Looking at the log book today its only had 1 previous and she was a woman.. I mean, what was she thinking making it green and not pink! silly woman haha
 
I'm no expert on most things but there is always someone on here with info lol maybe to just remove the green paint and add your own pink vinyl or something... You'll figure it out I'm sure :)

Can't believe she had them actually painted on! What a wazzick. Still makes it nice and unique though. You can always vinyl over the top of the green
 
Spray the mirror caps the same colour green and get a black front grill. Would look great!

As I've just posted elsewhere...I have my old black front grill wasting space in the garage

How much are you wanting for the grill?

I don't think it'll be a good idea to make any other part of the car green just in case i decide to change it lol

60 will do me for the grill. I ordered it from Sere a while ago for my old FRs.
It's the same as this one, same provider as well.

The pre-FL mirror caps come off so easy and are so easy to do something with that if you made them green now, it wouldn't cost much to change then again. But I so see your point.
Alternatively, have the little mirror caps wrapped in a matching green or black
 
Nice! Get some eibach sportline springs on it, it looks good but would look even better lower .... every car needs to be lower in my eye thou! Lol

Youll lovecthe car!

P.s golfs are too "safe"

I agree they do look better but i'm not sure i can trust myself getting it lowered! That could prove lethal lol

It's definitely unique, however personally I think its a bit much with the green.

Glad you like it though.

Yeah i get your point with that its a total marmite car lol If it hadn't had the paint job i wouldn't have chosen it as i don't tend to go near silver it bores me! It's desirable to get the green changed in the future but at the moment i haven't got a clue how to go about it! I want it to look better not worse :D

Hahaha!
Yours is chrome surround and the eBay/mine one has a gloss black surround. Makes a big diff to the look of the car.
Hence you see most cars on here with a black front grill :)

LOL yes you are very correct there! I'll wait till i get paid on Tuesday and if you've still got it i'll have it off you :) you wanting it through paypal?
 
Nice, but the green is a bit of an acquired taste.

More of a red check may have been more subtle. Nice all the same

Needs the wing mirrors doing definitely

I'm the same, I don't really like silver cars. I know you said pink would be an option however a graphite/anthracite grey would go really well instead of the green.
