Hi guys, first time, long time.

I was obsessed with this forum when I got my car but all mod plans lost traction, I am back on board with my first mod today - Chrome Grill Surround (will post pics in the How-to thread).

My car is this one:

My old account got deleted unfortunately.

I am planning the following mods:
Headlight with DRLs
Parrot Smart head unit - and subsequent amp/speaker upgrades.
Hardwire a wireless charger and holder for my Nokia Lumia
LED footwell lights
LED puddle light (under skirt)

YUP :D

I think the sportback gives the car a larger feel to its exterior, I do wish there were some aftermarket rear lights for them though.

Plus you can't go past the fact that you can transport a whole bike in the back without taking the wheel off.

Thanks guys.

I will send you a PM once I hit 20 posts *tongue*

Tomo, I did read/post on one of your headlight threads, I really want aftermarket headlights with super bright DRLs like what you are after.

Yeh I'm the same, I am worried that painting on the light will make it look tacky if you don't do it perfect.
Did you paint your engine parts yourself?? They look pretty good from here.

Also, check out this forum post Just for Sport backs, some pretty sexy ones out there.

Hi Grant. WB. Have you joined the Vic facebook page? There is a member here in Melb that is selling a set of HID's Projectors with Angel eyes (brand new). I think it has DRL's as well
