Default Posi blue MK2 subtle Flatarch -***breaking for parts*** need gone asap***

This is my first car and it has just clocked over to £47K miles and it had to lady owners so it was immaculate and hadnt been thrashed around.Im pleased how it has turned into my own car but theres still alot of stages to go.This is the only picture ive got of my car from how i bought it, as i lost my phone which had all my first pics of it.
This pic is my new grille which is one of the first things i changed on my car.

Then the next things i changed were the rear lights to Black lexus and i put some black and blue seat covers in to smart the interior up for the time being and also i put a bee-sting ariel on too.



As it was a nice day, i cleaned it and these are the products i used(Not many i know,but it did the job)


T-cut the rear badges

Glossy Black Vtr alloys are on atlast.


My mutant stereo;

Change of gear knob due to the standard forte one is bright yellow and the same with the door pin tops,so i changed the gear knob and taken off the yellow door pins.


Jvc 6x9's in the rear parcelshelf:

Rear seat covers and mats:

Front interior:

The saxperience.com stickers arrived:


T-cutting the badges:



To come
-Lowered by 30-40mm
-Angels for the front
-Tinted windows
-Mirror caps(Done)
-Subtle spoiler
-Interior redo completely.buckets or GTI.
-De-wiper rear
-Single wiper front
-Glossy black wheel bolt covers

What do you guys think?

Sorry the pics arent the best.
All comments and opinions appreciated.

Cheers Mc

I ended up getting nankang 185/55R14 there just for the mean time until i got some more money like. they were only £35 each like. My bruv said there good tyres apparently and he has them on his integra DC5 and alot of his japmids mates do too.£140 balanced and fitted they were, they were a bitch too fit as the layers of paint and that on them so they were a bit tight and snug. But was worth the wait.
