Any ideas?

Any ideas where to go with her next? Already in the plans when finances allow are:

Lowered, 16" Alloys (open to ideas away from Turini...), Clear Side Repeaters, Phase 2 Rear Lights, Colour-coded phase 2 sidestrips, Chipmastered and small hole by RH exhaust pipe filled.

Any ideas? :) Apologies if it seems I'm just trying to show pics of the car, I genuinely want people's advice on where to go with it exterior-wise...

Cheers,

Mighty: Yeah, I don't want to overdo it or start fitting kits, etc, but would like a few bits doing just to tidy up areas. I haven't bought the side repeaters yet, I was watching some genuine Renault repeaters on Ebay recently but lost track of time and they sold for £15, dammit!

D4ve: The exhaust is a custom made job, fitted prior to me buying the car and made by the previous owner's mate. It's a cool design though, backbox in the normal place and then one pipe feeding the two mock exhaust pipes that you see out the back. What I've noticed recently is that the slanted design makes it a lot more subtle and stylish than the recent KTR 182 style exhaust that they've released, IMO.

dont forget to colour code that boot lock too! :)

I think the think that will make it look much better is the lowering, get that sorted asap!

i'm starting a cult ;) seriously though sounds like u have a good idea yourself, as for alloys, an anthracite colour always looks best on a silver car imo

personally, if u wernt thinking of doing this already i'd go the whole hog and get coilovers straight away, makes the biggest difference of all! Maybe even get ure standard alloys done in anthracite :)

Cheers for the comments peeps, glad to hear my plans (albeit slightly mainstream!) are considered to be in the right direction!

I shall certainly be lowering before investing in any wheel changes, as a lowered car on standard rims ALWAYS looks better than different wheels on stilts...

Hmm, 15" F1 Cup's in anthracite, slammed to the ground with a bit of colour coding and phase 2 upgrading... I think I see a way forward! :)
