Not got any huge plans for this, just a few:
- Aero wipers
- Sort rear sport badge out
- Dephaser needs doing
- Maybe anthracite wheels or keep silver, opinions?

Any Other suggestions welcome!

personally silver looks a lot smarter on standard wheels :)

Ok my mate came round yesterday and wanted to try out his new fisheye lense, what better way than to take pics of my new car (and my old one which is my brothers now)!!
Here they are,

Silver wheels work so well with Monaco.

Looks good, but your front drivers side wheel looks like its got some positive camber?

If its been lowered on coilovers could be worth getting geometry looked at.

Thanks for all the positive comments! So much love for the Monaco it seems!

It's been lowered on springs, Eibach i think? But i went out and checked it and think the photo may be a bit deceiving, i might look into getting it looked at though!
 
Shame you're so far away from me man, could've gotten some pictures of the new cars together ;p
Yours looks very smart, nice that its already been slightly lowered! im looking into a set of cooksport springs for mine atm. Are you going to space the wheels out at all? Also are you going to CSS? :)

i know, real shame! i hope to be going yeah, so maybe a photo opportunity there! i found out yesterday its on coilovers, so ill be lowering the rear ever so slightly as its got too much rake for my liking! then ill be getting geometry sorted for it! any plans for yours? im looking at getting spacers, but no rush :)

Yeah man sounds good :) and nice, wish mine came with coilovers lol but it's 100% standard. Have plenty of plans for it, nothing massive though. I think I'm going down the cooksport springs route or the best equivalent. I got terribly bored of coilovers on my old car, hate adjusting them! Hoping by CSS it'll have some sort of springs or something on it :p

with regards to exhaust change, do people recommend a ktec stealth? i like the look of the group n "peashooter" exhausts but it would definitely look out of place on my car! Suggestions please?
