Right, so I thought it'll be better just starting one thread and keep updating as I install parts on my car instead of making loads of individual threads.

So here she is when I first got her:











and now the mods (which aren't many yet ) :

Blacked out Window surrounds:







Gloss Black Painted Exhaust Tips:








Flat bottom Black Carbon Fibre Top (Blue Stitching) Steering Wheel (Now the original wheel is nice with the red theme but I want to try this on for a while, and so far I'm loving it:

Very awesome progress so far! I love the steering wheel, was thinking of doing that as well. Where did you pick up your wheel? Any issues with the install? Looks fantastic!

Defratos

Thanks, Actually I bought it off Ebay.

Someone from this forum posted it up and I had to grab it.

As for install it's pretty easy once you've done one or two. I've done a wheel swap on my previous car and this was very similar, just make sure you have all the right tools before hand, and a helping hand is useful for when you tighten everything back up again.

love your interior defratos and kudos on the black-out windows surround.

I like the color combination. What's next on the modification list?

Defratos

Thanks for the compliments,

well I have my Joe-Z Exhaust and PPE Headers sitting around the house, just want to wait a bit before installing them.

Other than that I'm waiting for my black emblems, and some other parts to finish the dechroming of the car lol

Awesome, I was looking at those on ebay too. How would you rate the fit and finish of it compared to the OEM wheel? Thanks,

Kevin

Car looks good, love the red interior. I had my exhaust tips done as well in flat black.

What did you use for the window surround?

Great color combo! I rarely see a NGP as it is called here in the US. How is the gloss black holding up on the exhaust tips?

looks like plaasti dip but im just guessing.

Defratos

The quality is good and so is the finish, I really like the carbon fibre part. But if I had to do it again ill prefer to get Alcantra to leather.

Lol sry mate but I don't plan on selling it anytime soon

I used the Mini Cooper tape from here ---> http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...tline-kit.html

There's a thread about it floating about, that's how I found it.

Well they've been on for 3 weeks and so far so good.

If you're referring to the exhaust tips I had them powder coated gloss black by Mike --> http://www.thepowdercoater.com/
