next mod, tight budget lol need opinions!

[UKtom]

not sure what to do for my next mod, i have like £50 spare til next payday so gunna spend it on my car :homme: im thinking wind deflectors or pressed plates from dubmiester?
what would you rather spend your money on? wind deflectors seem expensive for what they are... then again, so do pressed plates :panic:
also been looking at getting black pillars, what ones are a, b and c? *noob* and are they hard to replace??
opinions? :oops:

ANYWAY, pics of my car atm:

Interior mods! Retrim headlining? Pillars are real simple, pull off basically! A pillars come from the roof into the dash, B are where the front seat belts mounted into, and C is where the rear seat belts bolt in. Simples!

A bee-sting aerial?

Only £10 but meh

been there, done that! bought one from halfrauds for £12.. it picked up radio 1 and that was it.. didnt pick up my local radio stations, so i was right in there and took it straight back :homme: they claimed it was because my aerial wiring was faulty? :S even though the standard one works fine.. meh

I'd say your car looks perfect outside then, concentrate on inside, upgrade ICE if possible

already upgraded! have a flip out dvd screen and some alpine front door speakers along with a sub in the boot... (ASW :oops:) what do you think about the red rim tape?

Tom, some light tinted team heko wind deflectors would look spot on on your car :y: On ebay about £35 posted IIRC

Also, there are some A-B-C black pillars in FS section at £15.

Thats your £50 spent on 2....yes 2!!!!!!! mods ;)

Thank me later :hug:

I like the red tape, it sets your wheels apart from the car, makes them stand out more, your rear lights look like mine, but mine look a bit smoother? if that makes sense :/

If you fancied a change, get your badges done the same red as the rim tape, and the chevlons on the grill as well, would give the car a more detailed look, rather then the Mr Bean, tnt in paint tin gag. :p

i believe we have the same tail lights mate, its just the camera angle :homme:
as for the rear badges and chevrons, i did my chevrons red once (see my progress thread page2).. liked it for about 2 days and then thought my car looked like a promo ad for halfords, so sprayed them black.. i may just stick to the interior as anymore exterior mods may spoil the car :S

I wouldn't know personally mate, my Clarion CZ201E Seems to be a step above it though. I'll ask around for you though :homme:

[Furio-Gazza]

aint after one like just wondered like, breaking my car atm because im close to buying a WRX, but ive seen an old Astra GTE i realllyyyy want, so cant afford to spend cash where its not needed yet :P

[UKtom]

not bad for the money tbh, however if i was given 300 quid again, i wouldnt spend it on that. :homme:

106 gti leather or some nice bucket seats

106 gti leather or some nice bucket seats

Find me some for £50, i'll buy them for £60 ;)

[Rudpud]

I have black headling and black pillars and looks nice tbh. If ya short of cash its pretty cheap. Headliner i think i spent £15 on materials. Pillars, you could spray your own or buy some lol.

[Ashleyp]

you could always sack off the pinstripe on the wheels?

free, and would look better.

those kind of mods are cool when youre in school / college. but just looks a joke when youre over 18.

[mcjacko1987]

ccd your bump strips to match. would look nice all black gloss. and shouldnt cost much

[dunno]

pressed plates mate ;)

[Lewiswhitlock]

i may do this lewis! did you retrim your headliner in the end?

yes i did! But the suns beaten the spray glue i used and its all falling down so need to re-do it!

[Furio-Gazza]

Upgrade the front 2 speakers :y:

[LSOfreak]

black headlining and pillars make the interior too dark imo

why dont you save the dosh and get some decent seats

[Gavstaa]

new steering wheel would look good in that saw one in the fs bit :)

[billytalbott]

i have some mint sprayed satin black ABC pillers, not a mark on them and you can have them for 25 quid posted, pm me if your intersted!

[stevo67]

I`m surprised knowones mentioned the cheapest mod of all,de-wiper the rear.

[Hatcha]

Gloss black the bumpstrips! £50 could easily get you all the stuff :A:

[MrChris]
