Even if the car is quiet, we will still hear you coming with those wheels attached. Good on you!

I like the wheels, but hate the colour!

Each to his own... if you like them, that's cool

Cheers for the replies as for the Laguna splitter I'm not sure the model I'm sure they come on all the older mk1's?? I got mine for about a fiver from my local scrappy they screw straight on to the bottom of the standard bumper and then just trim the ends with a knife I've yet to find a car they don't fit )

mk1 Laguna Front splitter. Very popular modifcation as they look ace. Really hard to find in scrapyards now so if you do stumble upon one youre into a real winner.

They are just stapled onto the bumper originally but some small screws into your bumper will do fine. The ends might need cutting down depending on your car.

Can pick them up off eBay but they normally fetch £20-30. (I got £30 for mine one Bay and regret selling it!)
