Just washed or not driven for a cple of days
Not a big fan of black cars with black wheels, yours is rather nice tho
One sugestion if I may. get some brake caliper paint from Halfrauds its about £20 and make so much difference to the standard caliper finish

You got me!!!!
Just washed Thanks for the comments - funnily enough i said yesterday when i was with some friends that i must paint the calipers 
Black wheels = nightmare to keep clean, constantly dulled by the brake dust but so much more noticeable on black alloys

Splitter arrives in the next couple of weeks, morrettes soon, i've had the tein springs fitted (just bedding them in)
I heard that from the end of this year that tints not fitted as standard will be classed as illegal and you can be forced to remove them - i really wanted tints but got put off of them
Thanks for the comments

LOL its always amuses me that when ever any one posts a pic of their car in memebrs gallery they all end up spending more money!!! Everyone comes up with great suggestions just a shame they all cost so much, at least mine was cheap @ £20

re ; window tints
think you'll find its only the front sides bud and obviously the front screen that you can't tint . . . i tinted front 2 and back 3 of my classic but removed the fronts on hearing this , , yours would look even better with the back 3 done in limo IMO
heres mine with just back 3 done in 5% limo

Thanks for the info dazza - i'm gonna find out more info on this one
Your car looks wicked, the tints look really great
I do like the white scoobs - it was my other choice but chose black in the end, on the assumption white would need more cleaning...........oh how wrong i was!!!!

Spoiler and black wheels aren't my cup of tea, eaugh!
As a cheap alternative to the morrettes, you could detango, and whilst the headlights are open, spray the reflector trim black (note: trim, not actual reflector). I've seen this done (black on a blue car) and it looked OK, but on a black car it should look the nuts (will be doing my mates with him before the NBO). I tried a photoshop to see how it would look blue on a blue car, and IMHO it looked pants, so I won't be doing mine
