Cheers, Want to get the rear windows tinted to finish the black on blue look.
His name is Steve, originally taken from the film Big Daddy. He started out as Scuba Steve then steadily progressed to Scooby Steve. Drives her indoors mental as she normally names the cars, this time Steve seems to have stuck.

Perhaps carbon side markers and smoked repeaters would finish that off even better? I've got the white same as you on mine but with white wheels.

I may give that a try, i swapped the original orange ones for the white ones. I think i still got some carbon sheet here, i'll give it a whirl and see how it comes out.

Thanks guys, thinking of adding a HT auto front splitter, swapping the fogs out for air ducts. And then tracking down a set of morettes that rent going to cost the earth....

I really like the inserts in place if the fog lights (not really covers I suppose
). Anyone know who makes them/where can I get me some?

I know that you can get them from charge speed, but cannot see where to buy them in the UK.

Managed to get a small amount done on the bug since my last (and very old) post
Now got STi carbon side markers, window tints on the rear windows and a set of aftermarket grill pieces.
Next is to darken the headlights, STi upper grill and a black Zun sport lower grill in black to finish off the front end.
Also got a rear diffuser in the post from HTAutos to fit.

Looks spot on fella, not easy to fit are they! I used self tappers in the end, just painted the heads black. Did fancy taking the bumper off! Quality job mate, you should feel proud! I was fitting mine. Ha
