How about a little MK1 or MK2 spoiler to it? De wipered? Badges removed? 40mm is good man, mines down 40 perfect imo

hmm yeah i like the sound of those ideas, i am fancying a spoiler like you said... i did consider de-badging the rear... how do you lose the holes without fillering and respraying? or are the holes not really noticeable?

Dewipering is a possibility...

Cheers bud

You would deffo need to get them filled and resprayed, otherwise you could just spray them a different colour, or tcut them black. But yeah the holes are noticeable so i wouldn't just pop them off. Cost me 70 quid to have it done. Yeah people keep tellin me to get mine dewipered, but i like my wiper, may get a MK2 one as they are better looking!

Yeah i painted it with a brush the first time with the light blue, then sanded and sprayed the second time dark blue... could have spent more time on it but im quite happy with it

I wasnt sure on the two tone, but it's grown on me and i love it now, was gonna get a respray, but its really different and looks lovely when its cleaned and waxed

Then someone did this one for me lol
