Looking good. My pick: GP knockoffs + red mirrors - vinyl = awesome.

looks alot better than stock. you need some larger brakes if you put the GP knockoffs back on. those rims looked fierce and the brakes looked... meh. overall though i love it. even the challenge vinyl

My next mod will be:
*take out vinyls, bonnets included
*JCW brakes
Probably body kit jcw.... but it's to expensive for me....
What color of mirrir do you choose for my car?
Perhaps red ... orange???

You're taking the challenge vinyls off?!? They look great!
You seem to get a little stir-crazy with your car, no?

You drive on a dirt road with lowered suspension? I'd love to get mine lowered, but I fear I'll hit every pebble or take off my front pulling out of the supermarket.

Just take a picture of it in to a vinyl shop or send the picture to Aesthetic Creations or Lyle's Vinyl Styles and any of them will be able to make it for you.

NoooooO! I love the Challenge decals.
Good. I'd go with a front splitter and a rear wing (JCW style, maybe?) for some more race-car look. Leave the mirrors white.

I think that the challenge vinyl looks really nice with the red mirrors. Any wheel would also look good with that combo.

About the GP replica wheels. How much did they weight and cost? Are they really like the OEM ones? I guess the real ones should weight something less than 38lbs.
