It would be better to ask 'what can't I do to it'. Look on the features pages for inspiration and work out a budget of what you can afford. THEN GO DO!! Silly boy!

I reckon you should strip out the interior, dont bother putting in electrics, keep it really low and stick a nice set of dark rims on it, a cage, and go for the race car look, but with no badges and no stickers. Just keep the basic nessacitys. It'll look the part and will generally go better thanks to it loosing all its weight.

Mike.

i would really like a cage for it i do like the stripped out look
and i think a new exhaust is next on the list

Dont paint them rims black, will look too much like steelies...save the money and get a better set of rims, lower it more and a zaust...

Mike.

i can see what your saying dan they are cheap rims and i'm going to get some bits for my car this week end i.e a new exhaust and some other things. :D

transfer the brakes from the GTE, they are vented and an improvement on the standard nova brakes, which are next to unless!

Dod

Cage it, side exit exhaust, big black rims with huge brakes and red calipars, maybe yellow graphics on the rims.

Mike.

yellow graphics on the rims??????????

the rest of the ideas do sound good though
