Black wheels would look good I reckon and tints are good if done properly! Then you would have yourself a proper night rider!

yea lol not many people on here have got window tints, i wonder if it would look odd with only the rears tinted,

some nissan notes have the rears tinted as standard, not a very good example I know but it gives you an idea I suppose lol

maybe a light tint on the front and a medium for the rear, that way it will keep it legal, ive been quoted £200 from lethal autos in crawley, is that a good price to pay?

 

[Dione J]

£200 is overpriced I would say £150+ would be right.

Also S3 Leathers for £600:

Windows are already tinted very slightly from the factory, so any additional tint will most probably render the fronts illegal.

Light tints all round would look good though!

As for wheels I wouldnt go black, they get lost on a black car and look smaller on any colour. I'd go for an antracite or gunmetal grey.

Thanks for your input, i agree the black might look lost so im going to go for the grey option now i think cheers

UPDATE

Today i decided to go for a Remap, got myself back down to AmD, the car was running 171.2hp standard which is pretty impressive as the car is meant to be 150.
They managed to get it to 185bhp and 281.8 lb/ft torque. haven't given it a proper blast yet but it feels easier to drive, better response etc. Shame the roads so slippery at the moment, tcs light is permantly on!
