Fairly new to this - 1.4 Posi Blue Furio first car
Pretty new to this but starting to enjoy spending endless hour's browsing through progress threads which have lovely cars, proving the stereotypical views of saxos wrong!
Anyhow, Im 18 so a Furio was my only choice. Not too bad for a first car though! Few pictures..
Opinions/Constructive criticism needed as apart from going lower im struggling to think of more to do without making it tacky.

Thanks 
Can you t-cut the badges while on the car? or is it better to take them off to do it?
Got a 60mm apex kit waiting to go on, and got posi blue mirror caps on in the last photo (you can just about see them) lol.

I'd just take them off mate. Open the boot and you'll see the pins keeping them on, behind the boot plastic iirc. Easy job to do, just put a little bit glue on when you put them back on  Love the car btw
