Starters

Normal metros came with basic setup. However the GTi's had a full bodykit fitted by rover (how nice of them?) This bodykit I think is really nice and doesn't need much more to get it looking spanking. If you have a non-GTi metro a good choice is to visit a scrap yard and see if they have a gti in and raid it for the side skirts, front apron, rear spoiler, and coloured bumpers if you dont have them. Everything from a gti can be fitted to a normal metro, but they will need work.

This is a fine example of a gti bodykit (complete with coloured mirrors and vents) fitted to a gta, which as standard only has a rear spoiler. A couple of companies will do this all for you, but its much more rewarding (not to mention cheaper) to do it yourself

Done that?

Once you've got that lot fitted (or bits of your choice) you're pretty much on your own. Moto-build and a couple of other companies make a bumper or a couple of bits, but they're not rated by alot of people.

This is a popular choice for a rear splitter, a seat ibiza front splitter upside down. Looks good, and finishes off the back.

Another popular choice is to give the front bumper an 'EVO' look by cutting out the air vent on the front of it bigger. I have to admit this is really effective and so cheap to do, I havent seen it look good on another car unless its a whole bumper they've bought.

Further??

Again, money is the limit, aswell as talent and imagination. This car is really well done and has some major styling.
