nothing special, just washed with car wash stuff then dried off a bit, didnt use any special products but it looks a bit better, especially at standard height where you can see all...
that looks awesome mate!
personally i would have 2 because i like things to be symetrical, however it looks good with just one.
depends on the money, if you have it to burn then why not, but just remember you will probably have passengers moaning!
any pics of the car itself?

advertise it at £3.5k, someone will knock £200 off and think they have done well.
I've seen it alot as i've taken most of my...

plus the 1.6 has a...
will the standard 172 springs fit on my 1.2 16v?!
i know the poundage rates will be different but will they phsically fit in the shocks and on the rear beam?
are they lower than the 1.2's?
i sold a set that i had sanded and fillered up completely and just needed painting for £100.
but then i also sold a set i refurbed myself and sprayed in anthracite for £230.
both without tyres.
you'll be hard pushed to find some with decent tyres i think, most people just have them kicking...
a lot of people get a ported inlet to improve the airflow yes mate, makes a fair difference apparently.
