Cheers mate :)

Well here's how it looked when i bought it in January

First mod I did was colour code the rear valance, then changed the sidelights to LED's

Then bought some Edition 30 rear lights which makes the back look 10 times better

As the car didn't have xenons and didn't want to dish out loads of $$ for genuine ones, so I bought the xenon look versions which were a lot cheaper and still get the same look

Managed to grab a set of gti mats for £16 which I was chuffed about considering there normally about £40 used :D

And the last mod was last week when I bought an Edition 30 interior for £800 :D Really happy with the way it looks now, just need to get the heated seats working...

So that's why I've put my old interior up for sale in the classifieds section ;)
