Looks great. Hope it brings you many miles happy motoring (and not too many BTM's)

BTM = Brown Trouser Moment :lol:

First mod should be clear lens.... and a nice exhaust.

:shock: Clear indicators were on the later cars, (rev4+ i think) so you are just updating the car. Nothing chav about that.

A nice twin exit exhuast like my magnex greatlt adds to the car...IMHO....and again nothing chav about it. Maybe if a got a custom quad mega loud system but not a mongoose or magnex.

Each to there own though I guess. I would not do much more to it as it is a great looking 2.

Very very smart mate. I reckon like others:

Nice exhaust
Clear front lenses

Also, maybe

Turbo engine lid and some nice 17"s?

Excellent!

Good to see you made the right choice and went for the later model (wait for flaming from Rev1 & 2 owners).

If you get clear front lenses you'll need to lose the toblerones and get some clear side repeaters to match.

Enjoy!

Clear lenses

Post by Jayng »

Hey Jasona

It's seems that you already have the main clear indicators and just need the smaller clear reflectors. The previous owner seems to have only done half of the clear lens conversion and left the orange reflectors on.

As Jasona is new to MR2s, can someone show him a pic of the all clear lens conversion and the UK type orange/clear/orange typr to give him an idea??
