Very smart 
Have you thought about replacing the front reflectors with the black carbon fibre STI inserts? I think they'd work well.

The more you see them,the more you like them.Do the spokes on your wheels stick out more than the tyre?If so park in the middle of the road,and keep the missus away.Have you thought about lifting the rear spoiler,available at TSL approx 170 quid painted.I put them on mine it transforms the back(see it on THANKS TO AVIS:d.

Hi all, thanks for the comments,
Andy, yes I have been toying with the idea of the black reflectors, but the carbon ones are 165 squid
Yoza, the spokes stick out a bit but not down by the rims. The missus won't drive the thing as she claims she's too scared of it (maybe that's my driving
) Not sure about the wing, somedays I think the raisers look cool, then other days I don't. Not a slur on the raisers, just none of the wings out there has really caught my fancy.
Deep, naaaah, I like the silver, looks a bit more understated.
Anyway next on my hitlist is the Scoobysport DP, UP and then a Link ECU upgrade, should be good for about 320bhp
Cheers,
Simon

Very nice!
Best choice of colour (IMHO
), and the wheels look good. Could I ask a favour though - could you take my Wife out for a spin? I'm here while she is out in my BugEyed while I'm left here on the net with the option of her VW diesel. I could do with her being scared of it!

IMO smoked repeaters would be a nice touch.
I'm kicking myself for listening to dealers tell me black was a bad colour choice (they reckoned it doesn't show off the cars lines very well), that looks luvverly

Si,
This was the only choice of colour as far as I was concerned as well! Nice wheels BTW, will have to change mine at some point. Still reckon the originals don't look that bad.
I'm going to PPP it soon and fancy replacing the wing, there is some pics of another black 01/02 going around that looks well smart!

Dunc, more than happy to take your car out and rag it, will you pay for the trackday
Paul, I think that I'm definitely going to have to sort the reflectors, will probably go the route done by JGRIFF on his new STI7, black indicator paint. Looked pretty good on his, and a whole heap cheaper than the carbon ones! BTW what colour did the dealer persuade you to go for?
Neil, nice choice of lights, I think they look great on a black car! When you decide to sell your wheels there are a load of peeps out there willing to bite your hand off. I have to say that the tyres make one hell of a difference to tramlining and grip. I'm off to Powerstation on Sat to get the geometry done and a stiffer rollbar put in
Any idea what wing you'll go for?
Also any of you Blk MY01/2 owners considered pimp tints?

Sadly the wife took the Scoob to Cadwell and got round faster than me (OK, I was in the Passat diesel estate at the time). So, I guess that the track won't scare her.
Looks like we could all do with some lower springs - if only Trouser would sort out the new Eibachs!
As for pimp tints, I'm not so sure. They looked good on D T-S's car, but his was a bit more extreme than mine.

PS I should get the Rallytech spoiler on next week!
