Pretty cool  i reckon the rear lights are a tad too dark but it's up to you. Smoke the headlights? De wiper? All easy cheap mods

Instead of buying a new aerial you could smooth over it? Do some simple interior mods aswell like paint the dash inserts?
Seems a clean wee motor though

With the arial can just get a blanking plug to cover the hole, my radio still works without an arial. As said simple things can be done like dewiper, smoke your front headlights and maybe change your mirrors to some standard ones?

You can actually buy interior mounting aerials, but to be fair, I don't like the radio stations =P Does your headunit not have a USB, Aux or SD card input? Also I think it would look a bit piss if it was just smooth. =\
And as you say that, the postman has just posted my new xenon bulbs for the headlights, side lights and fogs!
Have to have something in that aerial hole or else you will ruin your headliner

White sidelights mate, blue doesn't look good on a black car in my eyes =P Will try and get pics if I possibly can, phone has decided to play up and not want to run any apps, gonna have a look at the execution code thingie on it see if the code is corrupting, if it works ill have it on!
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2509776234...84.m1438.l2649 theres the ones I bought, im not into blinding lights, just a purer light and a tiny bit brighter.

Yeah, I got a couple, my suggestion if you get the "www.saxperience.com" ones then stick them in a haynes manual or something of the same size to flatten them out, or you'll get big creases in them =)
