Looks SICK man, especially under the "bonnet" as you called it. I personally would peel off the side moldings. I think our cars look sleeker and cleaner without them. Your ride looks great man.

clean, but a 1/2 isn't stancing it out imo :D

I love the car! I recommend removing the side moldings and the badges on the trunk for a more clean look. :)

Do you want to trade your tail lights for my USA ones???

Thanks for all the replys! Just for back ground info im sitting on SPAX SSX springs and KYB excel-G shocks.

Red04SxtLuvr - Im considering removing them but where I park at work the spaces are close and i already have scuffs on them...

eastwoodsn352 - The intake is a UrbanX inline filter with a ebay alu catch can.

MyNeonSaysHi - The plates were cheap from the DVLA (car registeration place) so i couldnt miss on them!

Tam - No chance of changing my lights!! I need orange indictors by law hahaha

Midnight_Rider - Im honored thanks!! :rockon:

:D :D :D

The car looks amazing with a mild drop! That intake looks like a bomb in the engine bay, nice work!

Its feels great, alot less body roll round corners and the shocks only bottom over BIG bumps so it seems to be fine so far! The car feels really balanced and when I push hard round corners I only get understeer to deal with, no lift out oversteer for me!


P.s Just for anyone sweating over it I made sure the STOCK bump stops were used and they were NOT cut down in any way.

I swear, I haven't seen one molested neon from the UK. You guys keep your cars nice and simple. Love it!
The new stance is perfect and sure beats the 4X4 or excessively slammed height.
I thought you have to cut the stock bumpstomps in half? Thats what I did with my 01. Rode great.
