Bought this the other day, totally standard barring some awful headlamp eyebrows, and thankfully being a Sport it didn't have much in the way of tacky chrome/wood/etc, but there was still a few shiny bits I didnt like.
So today, as well as a service and re-blacking some of the faded black plastic, I made all the shiney bits I dont like dissapear along with the equally cheesy headlamp eyebrows.

I know a lot of people love all the shiney stuff, but thats not for me, so all had to go, even the silver wheels.

Badly needs to be lower and have some nicer wheels (or some spacers for the stock ones as the standard offset is terrible), but the above work cost me literally zero, so its a start.

Be glad to get it how I dont mind it looking so I can just concentrate on what im interested in, performance.
