I have to say Citron what a nice looking car you have and great mods on it (your colour is rare too in the UK - I have only ever seen 2 and they both were coupes...) - on mine I have not had to do any mods as most options are available here factory fitted and I opted for them. I have PTS (front and rear) bi xenons, electric folding mirrors and updgraded MB 5 double spoke alloys with sports suspension and had the trunk lid debadging done at the factory. I'm impressed with all the mods you have done on ur car and many others cars I have seen/read about on the forum.
Cheers
