White....3 Door....& those wheels are great.

Good choices..

How about getting the roof wrapped in Gloss Black ? That seems to suit White cars...

Very nice!

Where's the best place for badge skins my early PP is still sporting the chrome?
Forget badge skins and get these instead

Funny that you say that, I've been looking at gloss Carbon.

Ive just got some quotes, ranging from 150 to 275, thats using Avery gloss black.

Im a bit worried about the antenna though, will the wrappers be able to remove it OK??

They will either remove it or cut around it, but you wouldn't notice it at all, price wise that seems ok.

Mods that are happening.

Pedal Box
Akrapovic Carbon fiber tail tips.
Front splitter (if it fits)

Possible Mods

Roof wrap in carbon.
Changing Alloys to Fox MS007's
Brembo 6 pots.

Also thinking about the DTUK Tuning Box, but some of the stories I hear are not great, I'm also doubtful that it can achieve the quoted figures.

what about suspension ?

Ive just had an Eibach Pro Kit fitted to my 3 door and its massively improved how it looks..

20mm drop rear, 15mm drop front, so the stance has improved as well,

Not looking at suspension at the moment, maybe later on.

It's easy to loosen off the roof aerial. Just need to reach in the roof lining from the back.

cheers, I'll prob would rather take the antenna off myself, but I'm still not sure if Im gonna get it done or not, I'm still in two minds about whether to go for a Clubsport rear spoiler, in which case I wouldnt want the roof wrapped...

btw,,,when i was talking about suspension before, I meant to say 15mm drop at the rear and 20mm at the front...so it sits slightly down at the front....certainly makes a difference.
