   sideskirts might look a bit odd without the rest of the kit, but as i've never seen it done its hard to say lol. what colours your motor?

    the areil just unscrews off then swap them over buddy simple to do just twist off with your bare hands no tools unless its to tight but tighten it up else people steel them. on the moddifying front, just lower it with a set of springs say 30mil, then get some vtr or vts wheels on there, then a back box but dont get anything to loud else itll look daft just something about 3 inch no more than 3half inch, then finish off with a filter or induction kit from either kn or pipercross or green youll not go wrong with that lot but do not stick a plastic fantastic kit on it people will look but for the wrong reasons plus it will weigh a ton and with a 1.1 lump its not gonna go very well, so just make the best of what youve got they say less is more then if ya want to go further get a decent body shop to lose the handles and locks for the smooth look. which is actually your best bet, hope this gives you some ideas, because at the end of the day everyones tastes are different!! get some pics up then ile have a better idea what you could do? catch you later buddy

    it just unscrews at the base, and a new one should screw back in, may need a little adaptor thread thing but the new one should come with a few
