Beauty .. Oem is the way forward now

thanks darragh yours will be awesome to

Always have liked factory gt advances But A Few Subtle Mods Would Be Fine Surely?

Or you Could opt for optional extra alloys instead?

ya i like your way of thinking a couple of the irish boys were slating me oem no extras :sad: fuck it standard looking and load her with optional s what would you think see would look like if i fitted mu full optional extra aero kit ? lots more pictures to come

if you can get it to full factory concours condition then yeah go for it, will be worth a bomb in years to come id imagine! but if you have engine mods etc then that will take that away anyway.

the same could be said if it had optional bits, since they are factory then theres nothing wrong with it imo.

At the end of the day its your car, do with it what you see fit. most mods can be taken off if you dont like them anyway :)

Full oem starlet is quite un heard of really, 99% are modded in one way or another.

Aero kit would look smart but was it ever offered on the Advance ?

Optional alloys would look better than steelies with wheel trims aswell imo :)

Keep it up man :)
