Right - see my post in members rides for history of my ikkle olop
http://www.tigerstyle.co.uk/poloforum/v ... hp?t=12103
I need to do something to it - not a clue what but it just doesn't feel finished.....
Original plan was to get the front and rear bumpers I picked up from ebay for £35 resprayed in Black and black Vinyl the sides to create a black and white car but seeing as the accident resulted in me using the front bumper I've scratched that idea.....
I bored with the look - it needs something else and not a clue what it is!!!
Suggestions please before I viper stripe it!!!! (I may do it anyway just for a giggle - don't worry it will be removable)

I think it has to be a visual thing - not sure what - maybe interior next but thanks for your input
One thing is for sure after looking at yours I badly need some spacers made to step the splities out and fill the arches better

black roof would be quite cool i reckon! however, does it have an alarm? i noticed it attracts the wrong attention!

no black! don't think carbon would suit the car or the person driving it!
