Best Mod for a Tenner? by wokkaben on Sun Jan 30, 2011 10:59 am
As the title suggests, whats been your best Mod for a tenner? Or what would you recomend?

Mine is the blue fogs in the grill, £9.99 off Ebay! :)
If it bleeds, I can kill it.
Drive a Lawn Rover? I'd rather fight an angry honey badger!

Mud flaps - the material cost me £20, but as I only used half of it, that makes it a "tenner" :D
