Basically red & black are my favourite colours & as far as i've seen no one on here with a GP has done much in the way of black & red like obvi theres ppl with red gps & black wheels... But what styling could be done with my black gp to mix red in any ideas?
 
Why don't you get the abarth side stripes and get your wing mirrors sprayed red like the abarth.

Depends on the make of seats. If you go top end could be £1000 imo.
 
You could do subtle mods in the interior like red interior footwell LED's which turn on with the ceiling light, there is a guide in the GP section. I've done it with my blue GP and it looks really cool and not chavy. You could also re stitch the stitching on the wheel and gear knob. I cant remember who but one of the members has done this already, i'll find out who.

Mike is right, well done.

Here is a photo of the LED light strip and then a photo of the glow.

I took these on my phone so they aren't great and they don't do it justice. Its looks so cool at night when you open the door and the car glows blue. I've also swapped out the ceiling bulbs with blue LED ones to add to the effect.

I got the lot from halfords. You could get them cheaper on ebay but I couldnt be assed to wait!

I'll try and get a better photograph tonight at the dead of night!

when do they come on?

do you have a switch or what?
 
I have wired them into the ceiling light, I attached a wire on the passenger side then fed it through the trim - its really easy, so I can turn the LED's on/off with the ceiling light and it also means that the LED's fade on when you unlock the car/ open the door etc. and then they fade off with the ceiling light. :slayer:

I'll take a video of it to show you what I mean! I'm gonna do the same to the boot so it glows blue when you open it.

The guide is here:

and if you have any problems I'll be more than happy to give advice! (y)
