    How about some gel over lay badges? Type dmb graphics into Google :) wind deflectors are also a cheap/simple mod :)

    Yeah I was look at the gel overlays. And I was watching some deflectors on eBay, but I'm undecided as I'm not sure what they look like on the 5 doors. And carbon fibre wrapping would cost abit wouldn't it!

    Brilliant suggestions though cheers chaps :)

    Looks alright :) mines a 5door. If you're realy penicurty about it you can get rear wind deflectors too which dont realy do much except add to the look

    Ah I see. I didn't think of just putting the front ones on. Anybody got a pic of all 4 on?

    Wrapping the radio fascia is straightforward and rolls of carbon vinyl wrap on eBay are quite cheap.

    Go for 3M wrap if possible as it's more flexible and less chance of bubbles or wrinkles.
