Have the need to do something.

[Craig-ZS180]

I am at that stage over the past few weeks where I have almost got the bits sorted on the zs and am happy with how all is going.
There are things that I would love to do but cost far too much to warrant doing them at present ie bodywork bits and full paint correction and so on so atm will have to leave them for a later date. I do however have the old modifying twitchy finger syndrome atm and really want to do something to the car but am lost as which route to go down.
Interior- seats & door cards?
Mgf steering wheel & Xpower gearknob?
Headlight change again?
Laguna / cupra splitter?

All thoughts that keep going through my head but I can't do all with current money going toward our big day next March.
What to do though, and what is a reasonable amount to spend on a splitter or steering wheel as they tend to differ in price quite a bit and don't want to get my bottom slapped for the pleasure.

Spose this is a bit of a pointless thread really but just wondering what cheap mods people had done that they enjoy the most?

I would say interior changes and I could do you a really good deal on the seats and doorcards I have that we've spoken about before!

I really need to shift some stuff and that would be reflected in the price too!

Cheap mods that you notice -

MGF mirror
Rover 800 interior light
gear knob
tinted rear lights

I would give your calipers a paint and remove the rear wiper
I think it makes all the difference and should cost you the price of a can of hammerite and a rubber bung.

Honda accord interior light.

The honda one has map lights in it
or just fit a mgf rear view mirror as it has map lights underneath it
works well on mine lights up my xpower knob well

Thanks James, mgf mirror is something I've thought if in the past too but I've never looked into it fully or looked into the wiring side of things, is it quite an easy mod to to? I want a black Xpower gear knob but haven't seen one up for sale recently that doesn't seem rather over priced to me. Not sure what they are worth but £40 - £50 2nd hand is something I'm not going to pay. Like the oe one so would stick with that. Also got 45 rear lights with tinted indicators, had thought of wrapping my oe rears with laminx to give a all over darker look but not got around to it yet.

Want to do calipers but always get stuck with the colour I'd go with. Also love the idea of removing the rear wiper but my other half drives it more than me and wasn't so keen on the idea. Said what if I can't see when reversing. Didnt want to get into the whole being daft conversation.

Didnt know they were different to be honest, is it a straight swap over then?

Do the mgf mirror lights work as courtesy lights too when you unlock & open the car too?

Cheers for the suggestions guys

I went with silver which is nice behind gunmetal alloys
if your going to keep your alloys silver Id be tempted to go gold
