Hey,

I'm learning to drive atm, i bought my bro's car off him which is the basic silver Fiesta Mk4 (with alloy wheels for some reason) and i was wondering if there was anything subtle i could change first on the car, not too expensive too, i was thinking something like brake calipers painted or something? any other ideas welcome.

Cheeeeers guys
