Hi,

seems to me you are doing all the right things ! Quite a style-ish and delicate improvement, and you've gotta keep them rims in bronze. The colour is nice, too, so classic... so fine ! Enjoy your car, mate. Love it !

You and those wheels... cracks me up. Definitely the nicest red Celi IMO. I'm not such a fan of red but yours definitely makes me think twice on that judgement! Very nice indeed.

God I need that cup holder. Daaaaamn. biggrin.gif

Yeah, there's loads of things i forgot, as far as sound goes i have new Pioneer Speakers all round.

For performance, i think i've done everything that is economical to do now to be honest. With the De-cat, Superchip, induction kit and zorst, i think that's it for me.

I liked the gumetal 7th gen rims, so nice biggrin.gif

I just don't dig on the cupholder idea, why would you want that dangling close to your head unit?
