   hope this is right place to post this sorry if not.
   
   anyway am thinking of what mods to put on my black vts.
   
   was maybe thinking getting the alloys powder coated white?
   
   was also thinking getting the rocker cover and all plastic coverings in engine bay sprayed white also?
   
   dont want the car looking too stupid or 'chavy' want it too look smart dont want it been stupidly low was thinking maybe 40 or 45mm.
   
   was going to get windows tinted.
   
   smoked or euro rear lights
   
   and smoked angel eyes.
   
   you guys have any advise or idea's?
   
   cheers.

   ST green looks sweet if done subtle.. i.e calipers and some engine parts etc.

   If you dont want it to look stupid or chavvy then dont do white wheels.
   
   Standard silver, anthracite or black will look best.

   Smoked theme will work well and be subtle.
   Little mods make all the difference remember.

    I'm in the same situation as you mate but do it what ever colour you want. At the end of the day its your car. I've thought about doing so many different colours im just confused lol. White does look sweet but is pretty common on black cars.
    Be different and do em gold

    Black and yellow looks awesome. Check out the progress section as someone has got a vtr with black/yellow theme. Its pretty sweet. How about black alloys with white lip?

    if it was me it would be colour coded except the bottom front lip, probs a dimmma grill
    lowered 60mm, 16 inch superleggeras with 40 profile tyres
    standard lights all round
    
    very clean and its perfect imo
    but thats just me thats my style
