You can smoke the 'Citroen' and 'Saxo' badges with elbow grease and T Cut. Works really well and looks class.

Also invest in some tyre shine if your gonna have black wheels...I used to and it makes the world of difference if you have black tyres rather then grey! :)

doing it with t-cut jsut as good as spraying them then? coloured t-cut or standard? never heard of this before, thanks for replying !

and yeah grey tyres look shoddy but i think the steelys are just gonna be temp, dont feel safe without some alloys! haha

[no3chris]

also anyone got any quick info on what the "sx" adds to the car? Im guessing its the keypad and/or colour coded bumpers? cheers

Not too sure dude, I think there might be a thread somewhere on how to do it, but it's certainly a cheap mod! lol.

I know what you mean about steelies! I had black hubcaps too! haha.

[no3chris]

ok thanks ! haha :) if spraying is better then thats fine by cheap mods, i meant like not a £300 body kit! haha :)

spray your headlights insert black?, have a look in the styling section there are loads of stickies/guides in there so you can decide on what you fancy. If you are a patient person and can solder then you could change you speedo.dash lights to a different colours

[rob_s]

not the rarest of colours mate seen a few of them about recently on here

as said go with a green,black theme!

[Wayne]

Quite like your saxo:) i would either get some black angel eyes or spray your light inserts in your standard lights black to give the the smoked look.

[no3chris]

cheers for that, i take it the spraying of inserts is mot pass and legal ?

[no3chris]

cut the grille out ready for meshing, used a jig and had saw left the lower triangle of the citroen badge. somthing a bit different, sprayed the badge black, pics tommorow

[mitan14]

green with some black makes sense

[Adam_Q]

I use to have one of those :) The colour really grows on ya :)

Not that rare though ;) the first ever mk1 1.1 came in only a few colours and this being one of them lol!

You should colour code the boot strip and get some mirror caps and possibly mk2 rear lights :)

would look lush fella :)
