Ill take a picture in the morning, but if your going for "dress up" (as in purely aesthetic mods and not performance) without blowing the budget:
-Silicon Tubes, i know moss mini sells a kit. Its simply a box of silicon tubes and you get a little tool which slices them in half lengthwise. You just slip these over your stock tubes for added colour.
-Stainless braided lines. You can spend a lot of money and get the real thing, or do what I did and I bought just the braided stainless, cut to length and slipped it over my stock lines.
-Paint the plastic covers in the engine bay, eg rocker, battery, ecu etc etc
And the list goes on...
