   Main "themes" tend to be
   
   Clean
   Track
   Stripped
   Euro
   Bright colours
   Subtle
   
   think thats it
   
   J222JRA has turned me into a clean freak whereas my white vts is track/ring prepped and my daily runner.

   Cheers mate, just go with the flow and see how yours ends up
   
   That engine only has 24k on it so wasnt dirty to start with. Some money, plenty hours of swearing, blood and sweat should see you with some quality results though. Look through the detailing section for recommendations of a good plastic detailer and general de-greaser to start off with

   My theame is just.. Subtle
   
   lowered 60mm
   Anthercite VTS wheels
   color coded ice grey
   rear windows tinted (front 2 taken off by officer buzzkill even though they were the lightest tint)
   single wipe (storm)
   Deslated Grill (no mesh, anthercite chevrons)
   anthercite "wide" mouth with sides of splitter colour coded ice grey
   Heko wind deflectors
   106 mirrors + ice grey caps
   
   pretty much it and I'm really happy with how it's going so far, but then again 50% of people probly have what I have done
