Also got a few things in the pipeline:

- Lowering
- Paint caliper & drums red
- Put Monty's back on with 195/45/16 tyres
- Paint black side and bumper strips to same colour as car (Indigo blue)
- Possible fog lights
- iPod adapter

Lastly, do you know where I can get some foglights and springs from cheap?

Cheers, Mike :)

If your only lowering by 30mm then your shock will be fine, any lower and you should replace them.

For fog lights check out ebay kits pop up now and again

And for springs check out http://www.venommotorsport.com//product ... Suspension

But you will only want to go lower :D

What if I went for the 9n3 GTi springs, gives a 20mm drop and all for £40?

I think I'll get the alloys back on, then see about lowering. Want to get a few ICE bits as well like the iPod adapter if I can
