Styling Suggestions for my Mk1?

[yourpusha]

Hi guys, got myself a mint example of a 1.2 mk1 60 s. so far i have put in a nice install and a k&n 'filtercharger' induction kit. my next step is to custom fabricate an iPod dock for the centre console, (in the little recess in front of the handbrake) and then start on the exterior. the car is Rosso Red and with a good clean and a coat of polish the paintwork looks gorgeous. i am undecided on the exterior mods yet, cant decide on alloys first, i am thinking white lenso RS5s with a polished lip, (other suggestions welcome) lowering about 40-50 mm, blacked out rear windows and lightly tinted front windows. also cant decide between black tinted lights to match the windows, and red tinted lights to match the bodywork (again suggestions welcome) i am thinking for the bodykit, a sporting kit with a DTM splitter at the front. bonnet vents anyone? (discreet and tasteful of course, maybe some small louvres?) and want a twin exit slash cut exhaust, but i dont want to get an exhaust for the sake of making the car sound proper lairy, so will probably invest in a whole system.

any suggestions greatly appreciated.:slayer:

IMO subtle styling is the way forward.

GT bodykit, lowered on a nice set of 14" alloys and you're onto a winner

yea totally agree with you there. the car in your sig looks mint.. got any more pics? if i was to put fourteens on though i think i would probably have to lower it more than 40-50 mil. just personal preference, do like the idea of a GT bodykit though. think i also need to do a bit of de-badging. if i got a GT bodykit would it come with the headlight washers and how hard is it to link them up?

tint top of lights in line with window, leave bottom red

if youre going for 14' wheels, get 40/50mm lowered back/front respectively, cos theough experience, the front always sits too high
