    IMO mk3 Cavs are thin on the ground these days, and what tends to happen to models then is they get specced up. Just look at most of the Nova reps (more now than 10 years ago IMO)
    It makes sense for the last few models to resemble the top of the line IMO. Yeah it was done to death but I can't remember the last time I saw a Cav Turbo rep outside of a VX gathering.

    I'l do a shop and see.....
    Im so glad you said that bud, id leave the handles and trims as they are as it breaks up the car nicely colour coding everything is just too much for me, id do as you say with lights and indicators and tbh i like the wheels in white.

    Sri spoiler and skirts are a definate yes to me, maybe a nice stainless system or just back box and a little lower?



    Btw Bigs, is or was that cav yours, iirc its owned by a member of cavcrazy

    i would say change the wheel colour and possibly the wheels as they just dont go. and that is probably about it. will look nice with different wheels.

    Na veccy handles only look right if theyre colour coded and i would say it would be too much having them coded imo
