What Have You Done To Pimp Your Ct200?

[Whosthebagdaddy]

So I have the 200 with Gunmetal alloys. It's an Fsport model. I wanted it to stand out a little more and asked the dealer if they did red brake calipers. Alas, no! So after some research and chatting to a mechanic friend of mine. I purchased some Hammerite smooth in red along with a 1 inch brush. Dropped it off at the garage and after taking the brakes off and painting the calipers with 2 coats. Only cost £60 here is the end result. I think it looks great.

I got some caliper stickers off e-bay, did not actually use on brakes, but on some rubber mats I bought to make them look more like genuine Lexus ones.

There really is a lot of stuff one can opt to fit to ones car. Some of it enhances safety, some of it enhances appearance, some of it improves convenience, some of it improves various aspects of performance.

Isnt it a pity that the leach - like insurance companies seem to regard it as good sport and fair game to charge increased premiums for every little improvement? Whilst they also threaten to void insurance if there are any modifications away from standard spec which you didn't tell them about?

I often wonder how they would stand with the case that someone bought an already modified car thinking that all of the upgraded items were factory standard? Will they be introducing further statutory tests to ensure that no modifications have been carried out?

Since insurers of vehicles were given the backing of the law they have become ever increasingly annoying. People are now even worrying about fitting tyre sizes which the car never came with but are listed as a factory option for that vehicle.

I once had a mini which was very modified in both performance and appearance. I listed all modifications in a lengthy document for the insurers and paid a premium which exceeded the price I would have had to pay to drive a car worth twice as much as my mini with twice as much power.

Pimp my ride? Pay the PIMPS!
