So far:

ICE system
lowered back
in the process of finding new exhaust
also need new front bumper and grill as mines cracked
all comments welcome!

for the amount it will cost you to vt kit and convert the struts you cud pick up a 16v engine for about £100-£150 mabe possibilities

id say get ur wiper arms sprayed black. maybe spray inside your headlights or get angel eyes, lower the front and get some decentish alloys at the least. alloys are a good start point really, gives you better ideas what sort of theme to do

A decent clean wouldn't hurt...Other than that look around, theirs plenty of threads to have a look through and get some inspiration. On a side note, your sound system is a bit qwerky, you've got two subs pushing air straight into the 6x9's making them pointless...
I think a good start would be some new alloys and lowering the front

its all on what you think tbh mate. you could do hub conversion but in the end will be quite costy. but the thing is with 4 stud theres a lot more choice of wheels to go for. 3 stud wheels look old school so depends what look you are after. some 3 stud compomotives with suitable mods should look good though

yeah the compo's should look alright just debating on what colour to spray them if i get them thinking white or maybe black not to sure
but it depends i could go to scrappy and get a set of lowered front struts for 'pennys' then just change rear axle ?

Lower panel looks bent a fair bit. £400 seems a lot tbf.
What's the mileage and history etc?
