    Finally got round to putting a picture up of my new baby I got back in October now

    image.jpg

    she looks a little different now as has rear tinted windows and heko wind deflectors (although not on the back as I ordered wrong ones by mistake oops)

    shes had a hid conversion and led sidelights fitted, also changed interior light as wanted map lights and sunglasses holder.

    right now what I posted for

    i need new discs and pads for her soon and thought might give the callipers a paint when I do them so looking for suggestions on colours?

    and finally what colour is she as everything just says blue?

    any other mods anyone recommends?

    cheers

    Looking good mate, I'd go for a dark blue caliper paint or black. At the end of the day it's what you like and what you think looks good

    that full setup for the front was 135 which included everything you will need, its called a 314 upgrade and they come on the 2.0 litre turbo petrols and 3.0 v6 cdtis and possibly more that i dont know about

    cant go wrong with red calipers, stand out nice and look very sporty, mine are red on a green vectra sri. got the paint from halfords, ive painted 3 sets of calipers now with the one tin, my old mondeo, my old signum and my latest vectra, have about half a tin left too. i agree with angel1368 big drilled discs look great and really help stopping.
