nevermind about the door handles guys.
plus, adding to my original question, what are some other places you can use the moulding?

I used this chrome trim around my rear diffuser.. I also have it around the nose, as shown in the link.

If you like it do it.. it is easily reversible.

LED Taillights
before tryg gets in, his car is an ES, he put the aftermarket diffuser and LED taillights. taillights can be bought from ofey if he still has some, and the diffuser i believe is a talon diffuser, a sponsor on here can get you them, sorry but i dont know what one it is tho.

I used a 22mm chrome strip along my boot. I couldn't find anyone locally that stocked it so got some off eBay.

Curtis, nearly all of us built up our cars slowly...

you might not have those taillights this month.. but we all get there eventually...!

I like soft-mods... those you can reverse when you get sick of it.

I say DO IT !!

Curtis I believe some times less is better. Be careful not to put things on the car just for the sake of it.

As Tryg said reversible mode are good.

Cheap reversible mods are vinyl ascents and chrome mouldings. If you have spare you can try added them to the car and if you don't like them just remove them.

Pin stripping down the side of the car may look good as well. I have not seen it done yet either.
