Keep it looking standard imo and remove the window sun shade thing. Then you will have a nice looking car :bigthumb: (just my opinion)

I quite like the sun strip, something a bit different, but I wouldnt do the half black thing mate, looks fine as is

Yeah I'm having a re-think on the roof maybe just full black spoiler. And black oem wheels. But do like the anthercite (spelling?) colour but may clash with the black. Got a spoon n1 lined up so hopefully purchase that soon then wheels refurb in 2 weeks. Maybe wait till after Xmas due to weather

Sounds like you have done well to get a CTR being 21.
I wouldnt bother with the black roof would ruin it imo but black oem wheels would look sweet; Keep us updated!

Black roof was more kinda easy fix for the slight fade on body work but I think I'm just gunna have to spend 50-60 pounds on wax clay etc to bring it to life again. Maybe take to a proper valeting company to do it. Unusure really

I like the sunstrip and I'm not a fan of them most of the time. it actually looks like it belongs on the car with the black and red. looks like a nice condition one.
