   colour code interior, spray console etc, redo door card materials, maybe roofliner. Its all standard stuff, if you want quirky, work the brain when i get some fibreglass kits, thing may get wild

    i got a mk1 and sprayed the inner part of headlites satin black. bit fiddly gettin the lenses off without breakin them and maskin the reflectors, but worth the effort as they look god when done. also fitted a pug 206 smooth rear wiper.

    pre cut window tint?
    
    not exactly that cheap, but for £20...
    
    bought some pre cut for my old car of ebay, tad fiddly to fit, but looks not worse than proper tints, if done properly!

    get some tcut or g4 and rub off the silver part off all the badges looks soooooo much better and it is free someone you know will probs have tcut or g4
    
    and to be fair one of the best things you can do to your car is give it a good clean, clean cars always look nicer (tip uses tyer blacker can get it in spray or liquid makes the car look new)

    Agree with Ward3, a good clean always works. Another thing you could do is buy a Beesting Aerial, they look so much better and you can get them cheap on eBay.
