Yep give the car a mean streak (like you can make yellow look mean!!)

Yellow's more of a non-agressive 'look at me' colour !
Hmmm,... it looks a bit rough with those on ! Less chance of getting it nicked though !

I'd say if you want to make it look more mean, put the old alloys back on and do something with the front end. Eyebrows/ badboy bonnet/ de-badged grille etc....

Possibly still have the original wheels on the car was gonna run these thro the winter months to save the alloys from getting hanging is all

Need a badgeless grille but don't wanna change the car too much being a colour concept and all it's probably worth keeping fairly standard

I like the steelies, but it doesn't really look right on the CC mate.... If they were silver they may look cool though??

I know exactly what you mean about not molesting them though, think they'll be more attractive over a longer period of time if they're standard...

Yeah I know I always think back to mk1's and 2's everyone would rather have an unmolsted campagin or a standard mk2 16v in oak green than a modded one not saying the cc's will ever have this kinda status but you never know
