Hello, I have a 1.4 lanos and I just want ot make it look nice, so anything regarding bodykits, rims, anything to make the appearance look nice, please could you give me some ideas? thanks

P.S. please dont mention engine swaps as I am only 18, have had my lisence for 5 months and the insurance is gonna be ?2500 (near enough $5000)as it is, lol.

There should be a few guys out there with the 1.4L Lanos ( UK ) but exterior parts should be the same as the Canadian (1.5L & 1.6L) and USA (1.6L) cars.

What type do you have? (2 door hatchback, 4 door sedan ??)

hi, yeah i thought that, but just wanted to make sure...I was actually also looking for things to do with performance too. I have the 2 door hatchback version.

4 door hatchback version here. u could start with a body kit, try orciari for example or a custom one, lowering springs (lots to chose from), shock absorbers etc and nice 15"/16" alloys. I've probably spend on mods as much as I spent to buy my car!... but my girl deserves the best

any recommendations on springs for 16in alloys? the orciari kit looks a bit too standard to me...apart from the side skirts, the front looks like standard with an extra thin bit in the cut-out in the centre. Also, do you know what size tires I would need for the 16in rims so that my speedo would still read correctly?

Thanks

Yeah... 1.5 8v too. It's hard to find 1.6 16v in my country coz Daewoo isn't here anymore :'(
Well, i guess i'll have to find everything on my own...

Take a look here for a good site i found (maybe hard for you coz it's australian).
