Keep her stock

IMO there's only two ways to go all out drift decals crazy paint jobs etc or as near to stock as possible

every one loves a stock sleeper drifting

It will also be mounted on stealth mounts so I won't be drilling the bodyshell for posts or to screw on the spoiler

Well, unless your going for a scale interior,tint it. But gor fir a transparent colour, not fastint or similar, you could even do a few light coats of chrome, still be see through.

I'd go for a JDM style faded brown tint at the top of the windscreen only.

Pulled up in my nice escort the once had to laugh at the abuse I got because it wasn't a corsa

(Mk6 escort full cage stripped and actual engine upgrades bring on the summer and a car trailer to get me to a track)

How did this project end up btw?

Here it is with tints
One dust coat and two top coats
Didn't want to go any darker
But with the black Rims it looks mean
I will be sticking with the white rays replicas for my chassis though
