Default quick opinion needed please

Havent spent any money on the car in months (a good thing ), apart from blooming petrol and was just tinkering with a few ideas.

Although I like the front end of the car as it is, I was just wondering whether I should get fog covers instead of the meshed ones I have. (dont use the fogs anyway) and maybe the wedges in silver..

so opinions please if you could

As it is now :




and with a little help from simon (cheers) and photoshop, the options.

Just put paint striper on them and the paint you already have on them will come off, with a little help.


I was photoshoping my car to see what colour wedges I should go for, I thought either silver or grey??
