Best mod bargain you've ever had

[imported_puntomatt]

Granprixgranda has mentioned being a cheapskate when coming to mods - I'm sure he's not the only one out there, so tell us what's the best bargain mod(s) you've ever had?

Mine have to be the polys on the Bravo, they weren't exactly cheap but much cheaper than new and the different functionally and aestetically was amazing - combined with HIDs they were the bomb

The short number plates- cost nothing and make the car look way cooler imo

Tinting my back lights/mk2 front badge on the bonnet.

The tints were a disaster first time, we left the lights in front of a fire to heat (to take the paint) and kinda forgot they were there. So by the time I bought another set of lights & tin of spray, I guess they weren't so cheap.

The badge undoubtedly made a difference to the front of the car, a couple of quid from the breakers!

Dunno about be mod bargain ever (I've been around for a few years :shock: ) but I think the best I've managed recently is to source an Eibach Pro kit (springs and struts) for my Stilo in europe at somewhere around half the price of a couple of companies are asking in the UK :lol:

If this turns out to be as trouble free as I hope will post details of the company I'm dealing with on the forum so other Italian car owners can benefit :smt023

Other than that I once bought a set of Oz 17" alloys from a guy in the pub (family business used to be a pub) for an Integrale I hadn't yet bought (!) for £100...... sold 'em 25 minutes later for £300

I will

I have a pal with a 156 JTD (2.4) which needs some suspension tweaking as well (just doesn't do country roads quickly), if these guys check out OK then he'll be buying a set for the Alfa as well
