going to paint the calipers on front bright yellow and the dums on the back
colour coding the body kit to look like this roughly ....
http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af105/saxtreme_2010/saxo.jpg
with a black interior with subtle details of yellow (not sure on the what bits yellow and what bits black yet but those are the main plans for now
maybe a yellow bonnet or sum thing or bumpstrips maybe

badges maybe ???

5th May 2010, 21:09
I think choose a different colour from yellow. The plans are awesome but the choice of colour would let it down.
Then again, don't do what other people say.

5th May 2010, 21:11
hmm blue is a tricky colour to pair with another colour maybe just simple white?
What i mean is no to the yellow bumpstrips:n::n:

saxtreme
5th May 2010, 21:13

dave_1

5th May 2010, 21:17
will do vstal will be middle of 2moro lunch time ish there up
but that will just be outside designs not inside yet
I think that yellow would go with that colour of blue but not too much of the yellow...maybe calipers and as you say a graphic or two.

saxtreme
5th May 2010, 21:18
deffo going to do photoshops lol
what sort of graphics ....
Yellow: Calipers, rear badges, chevrons.
Black Drums and wheels
Color code the rest
Thoes wheels will look gash in yellow, completly wrong style but each to their own

Those wheels will look gash in yellow, completely wrong style but each to their own
this idea sounds good, please dont paint your drums, your just pointing out you've got a base model saxo lol and dont over do the yellow; chevrons, badges, calipers and maybe mirror caps, yellow saxo door badges then i would stop there with the yellow.
also dont paint any interior plastics yellow, i dont like it when people paint the plastics it just looks like you've got some spare paint and your just painting anything that is easily removable lol
saxtreme
6th May 2010, 07:29
i wont be painting the interior it will be leather or swaide

6th May 2010, 21:32

(without the yellow petrol cap)
The interior and engine bay pics look good do it!
saxtreme
6th May 2010, 22:12
just keep it standar petrol cap...
and i short so need a sun strip realy lol the visors dont work for me lol
in my eyes there need another small bit of yellow on the back some were but not sure maybe a yellow sticker in window ...
whats the deal with yellow lights in stead of it being clear and red clear and yellow
saxtreme
7th May 2010, 20:47

Body kit FTL

8th May 2010, 07:42
everybodys got there own taste but i think you shouldnt go with the yellow
Lol i got a yellow calipar, sanded and painted one and coz of the weather havent done the other yet LOL!! And my calipar paint has hardened. Bugger. Buh im eventually getting a repray to Pearl White, with yellow grills and yellow calipars, subtle enough to break the whole white look, red calipars are so...... common haha, like the kit!! All the best

8th May 2010, 09:15
ino people hate kits....

Mallyauto86
8th May 2010, 11:44

8th May 2010, 12:07
I'm not a fan of big body kits tbh, but i would like to see what it looks like once its done. I would colour code it IMO, im not a fan of 2 tones either, but thats what modifying is all about, you make your car the way you want it to look. :y:
saxtreme
8th May 2010, 12:16
im not going with two tone just subtle yellow details
the yellow stip that runs under the window could i vynel that or should i paint it
saxtreme
9th May 2010, 21:01
i have now desided on the final designs for the car with a extra twist =] will design it all on tuesday ....
but its staying with the yellow blue theme
and have a special boot build disgn aswell =]
how much would a under car neon kit be for my sax ....

9th May 2010, 21:08

9th May 2010, 21:15

but each to there own x
dave_1
9th May 2010, 21:28
think the yellow strip under the side windows look really good. maybe should carry it on round to the boot
jeffchiz
9th May 2010, 22:57

Predator_R32
10th May 2010, 06:08

dave_1
11th May 2010, 00:19

GTuff
12th May 2010, 13:54
i would go mirror caps yellow and badges yellow thats it
k_singh91
12th May 2010, 14:16
keep the kit white and go for a blue/white theme?
mischief
12th May 2010, 18:54
if your going for blue and yellow. I would go for yellow mesh grill and bumper at the front and yellow badges on the back :y: i like the colour scheme very controversial. Just dont go to mad with the yellow would be my only advise. :y:
gazwiththevtr
12th May 2010, 19:15
Not a good idea ,will look shite and go even slower than it did. Put a VT kit on it ,get it painted ,put some vts wheels on it and lower it it will look good enough. Subtle is better.
saxtreme
12th May 2010, 19:21
i think ive desised on what to do
keep the body kit the same blue as the car
silver mesh grill with a yellow badge
yellow calipers
yellow badges at the back
yellow fusion sticker in back window
yellow saxp sticker in rear quaters
maybe the yellow and blue (same colour as the car )petrol cap

this car finished yet ?

4th June 2010, 18:42
I like the idea of yellow but i would go for the VT kit myself, but its your choice. and also just have a standard petrol cap but have it yellow also have yellow mirror caps that woud look ace! ;)

do whatever you want mate, its your car! you either care what people think and want to build a car just so people will say OMFG dat is sick etc or you dont care what people think and just do it!

Looks shit mate (no offence intended) and theres nothing worse than 1 litres with stupid bodykits imo
MAXSTARR
25th June 2010, 02:39
not a fan of the blue and yellow colour scheme mate.... but i want you to prove me wrong, i honestly do....
and tbf, i want you to do the bodykit..... maybe then everyone wont be sheep with the VT kits (tried and tested, yes i know) and do something 'DIFFERENT'......
BRING BODYKITS BACK INTO STYLE :y:
(awaiting a slating)

25th June 2010, 02:48
Can't you see that the bodykit looks stupid on the car? It's a small hatchback and you're making half of it look like a wide load lorry... just stop and go back to the drawing board >.<
BreconShadow
25th June 2010, 10:32
Once the colour and that's done i'm sure it'll look decent

however at least he's trying to make his car look different.....
for example.... look at most the cars on here.......... same mods, over and over and over again, yeah they look really good, but samey......
at least he's going to try and be unique........ :y:
MrHouston
25th June 2010, 12:14
Putting a jap bodykit on a french hatchback is not unique, it was the 'style' in the past and is nothing new, it died out cos people realised it was pants ;)
You can be unique in so many ways.... there's loads of unique nice looking saxos in here - and none of them have a bodykit

i agree with you....... but in my opinion if done right.... it can look good.
haha adidas poppers will make a comeback one day so will bodykits, mark my words ;)

Bodykits are cool but only if it's 1996 and you drive a Vauxhall Nova. Seriously though the guys are right go for subtle mods and you'll get much more pleasure and a lot less hassle from your car. Blue and yellow are not good colours to mix and especially not on a Saxo!

yeah i agree, i dont like shit ebay bodykits, i was thinking more show car looking....
if done right it may look good, i know they dont go together in the colour spectrum, but oh well...... everyone makes there own choices
