Just wanted to post a couple of small mods off my list of bits and pieces.
I decided to get around to changing my side indicators for smoked LED ones, a bit of a tight fit but i think they look cracking.

Also i went for Carbon Fibre effect steering wheel inserts- (the silver S is my little touch as after all my car is the Sport version)

Looking good Clive,

especially the nice easy carbon fibre mod ....really enhances the aesthetics of the steering wheel

[Steven33]

I do love LED lights, the immediacy of them flashing on/off really adds a premium look to the car i think!

Really like the carbon fibre on the steering wheel. I've been looking at replacing the entire radio surround, ashtray, and gear surround with carbon fibre.

Tidy little job there mate. When you gonna get round to fitting your overlays

[Stoney871]

Thanks lads, glad to see you approve.
Brigante, I keep meaning to get around to fitting the overlays but the weather never seems to be right when I have time.

[Brigante]

Lol I know mate just winding you up cause I know you've had em a few months

Your steering wheel inserts look like they've just been carbon wrapped by the seller, are they?

[dezwez]

looking good

[Brigante]

I do like the smoked repeaters too, wanted to do it myself but as you know I'm installing wing mirror repeaters at some point so not much point doing smoked till then.

Looks good Clive , i used vinyl wrap on mine.

[artscot79]

youve got the same ones i ordered ya bugga lol sidelights i mean how are you finding them do they flash correctly ie in time with the fronts

[Stoney871]

Lights are all in sync.
The inserts are not wrapped, they're solid plastic with a textured carbon detail on them.
You'd think they were carbon if you didn't look at the back of them and see the injection mould blobs.

[artscot79]

that put my mind at rest i ordered mine the other day and since no one had done it i wasnt sure how they would look but im happy they look good mate im not being biased lol

[Stoney871]

You'll find that when you remove the old ones you're likely to snap lugs off them.
New ones need to shimmy under the airbag cover, be warned you will probably sound the horn a few times so be prepared to annoy some people.
I made a few scrotes jump a bit so good result all round.

Looking good there, was looking into those inserts, but I cannot carbon wap so the rest of the dash would stay bland lol.....
