Hi and welcome, I like the red paint job.
Which engine do you have in your FR? Are you looking to increase performance or do cosmetic mods or have a bit of both?

hi yeah the red is nice im going to de chrome the front of it and make it red and black. I am looking for a bit of both tbh i would like to make it look so much nicer and also make the driving feel better! What suggestions do you have?
De-chroming will look smart, I agree.
Do you have the 1.2 or 1.4 TSI engine or the diesel? All engines can see performance gains with a remap but the difference between the 1.2 & 1.4 petrol is significant!

A stage 1 remap (software modification only) will see you go up to about 130bhp with the 1.2 engine - it would be fairly nippy at that point! There are lots of different tuners out there who offer a variety of products, some are permanent remaps, some are plug and play tuning boxes that you can easily remove.
With a custom exhaust and performance air filter you could probably squeeze out a few more bhp but these are more for the aesthetics/sound.

A decent remap would be about £350, proper sports exhausts systems start about £450, you'd have to factor in fitting costs as well.
Remap will give you a noticeable performance increase and the exhaust will give you a better sound and look at the back - if you can stretch to both then you're obviously sorted!
