   yea lower as the first main mod, but while ur waiting u can do lots of little DIY jobs...smoke headlights and rears, custom grill, de-wiper, de-pin, black rear badges, smaller aerial. im kindof at the same stage tbh, really want to lower it but cant really afford atm so started with all them mods which were cheap and v.effective

   Here's a guide to smoke the headlights mate. If you do follow this guide I recommend you dont paint the refelctive shell behind the bulbs like this guy did. I belive its an MOT failure.
   
   Hope this helps

   its not an MOT failure unless u spray the lense, u kan spray the whole insert as this doesnt stop light coming through

   What I mean is that you cant spray the refective part behind the light.
   
   Thanks to who ever this photo is. The area inside the blue circle should not be sprayed because it prevents the light reflecting off it, thus reducing light intensity. Which I belive is an MOT failure as I said.
