just found motor world are doing ignition wire which would go on a metro and apparently also increases acceleration, boosts BHP, improves throttle response and offers more MPG.

Those leads are 80 quid for my car, dont know how much for urs but 80 quid for a couple of years with very very very slight improvement is a lot of cash

Personally I'd say subtle mods would be best suited for the Metro's

Smaller cars suit smaller, less in ya face mods

I'd say go Euro on it, possibly wide arches but get everything smoothed so theres no lines

Yeah i wouldnt agree with Scoop on the HT lead's - Iv also been told not to use Aftermarket leads unless there good quality b'cos they could make the performance worse if ideal spark isnt acheived etc Just somethin they say on FEOC, always stick to Ford!

I didnt buy those leads mate.Ran away when i heard the asking price.Only change leads on a BIIIIG power car as every little thing helps if your questing after top power. If you just want a bit more noise which is all you every really get from just a indi kit and zorst then do that but if u want a quick metro get a big engine in or a bike engine. As for the front bumper that is the "animal ornamental" front that is available for all cars, just tell them the width you require and they will get the closest one then a bodyshop have to struggle to fit it.I hate it and itll be a lot of hassle. Go euro mate.
Custom kit all the way, something round and smooth
