any ideas?

[xOliviax]

just bought a green mk1 1.1 started doing some mods to it already, just done some basic things sprayed the badges and colour coded the interior thinking of smoothing the boot and then getting it lowered. dusnt look how i want it at the moment im only its second owner another lady had it before me so its in mint condition but want it to look more beastie. when i get it lowered i think its goin to look loads better just wondering whether i shud put front and back bumper on it.I dont no alot bout cars can anyone give me sum more ideas bout wat to do next and what type of bumpers or kits i can put on it or rims maybe?:panic:

[LewDacris]

Are you keeping it flat arched? Lowering it looks 100x better. I wouldn't change the bumpers personally.

Lower it, smoke the front lights/fogs, colour code bumpers & rubbing strips, subtle back box(not japo looking), some VTR wheels.

Have a look through the photo section or search on 'flat arch' that'll give you a few ideas.

Hope this helps!!!

vtr wheels wont fit as its 3 stud

[Noddy]

how do you know its 3 stud. the later mk1 1.1s were 4 stud fitment IIRC

[LSOfreak]

well if its not 3 stud you could always get a hub conversion into 4 stud

[LSOfreak]

(i mean if it is 3)

Do you know what year they changed the mark 1 3 stud into a 4 stud?

[Qucifer666]

not sure, but go and count the number of bolts holding your wheels on :P

[Noddy]

you've got a 2000 mk1? it should be 4 stud. But as just said, go out and count the bolts :p

[xOliviax]

just counted :oops: has 3 haha

you're going to find it quite hard to find alloys however I think these would suit any green saxo:

Depending on the colour green, a VT* kit could suit it. But Flat arch's look amazing lowered.

So if you're after any sort of kit, the cliche kit is the only one I like the look of for flat arch saxo's.

either that or the vt* kit if you must change from a flat arched saxo :y:

edit: any pics of the car?

cos only 1.1s i seen with 3 stud are mark 2 but saying that i think 1.1 mark 1 with power steering has 3 stud

[steve_335]

No mk2 has 3 stud wheels and my 1.1 don't have power sterring, you can find wheels, i found a set on e-bay and there are a few sets going on here.

[moxy89]

what in your personal opion is the best set of 3 stud alloys on the market i got a white car and thinking white or black alloys but i dnt no what there is the only ones i like are the compotitve mo which are really nice but there not many about

[xOliviax]

i really want some black ones shud look smart wen its lowered but as i got 3 stud looks like im gona av a hard job

[steve_335]

You could try scrappies, i knew someone ho had a set of 3 stud compomotives in white, wanted £100 for them, they were mint, i would have got them, but i didn't have the money. You could lways buy and silver set and refurb them??

[xOliviax]

not meny good scrappies down here went and had a look most of it was stuff i didnt want. yeh i was having a look at tht depends how much its gona cost to get them refurbd.

[liam_b]

i got some some 3 studs for sale too

[xOliviax]

[Gabbastard]

[xOliviax]

thanks

getting a VT* kit fitted will make the car look so much nicer....espeacially when you have lowered it on some good rims....

as 3 stud alloys are hard to come by...you should also consider a 4 stud conversion as the range of alloys becomes bigger!

[xOliviax]

how much does that cost though

[LSOfreak]

i think its just a hub which adapts onto your car somehow not sure- try ebay or do a search, im sure it said it somewhere??

[LSOfreak]

You can get some citroen AX rims, there 3 stud n look orite

[webby]

flatarch cars look good super low

[danzle-boi]

iv i were you, id wait till you get a vtr or vts before you mod ur car mate! feels better when u got a bit of power behind the nice looking vihicle rather than a 1.1.
i had the same problem!! haha!
infact mine was a pug 106 deisal, didnt bother with the looks, but now i got a vtr, will start doing some bits n pieces to that

[xOliviax]

wud cost me loads to insure a vtr even tho id like sumit bit bter gota sick with it for a bit onli 17 so wana make it look bit more beastie than it is now us ladies gota drive round in sumit tht looks good :P
