Why is your radiator grill not sitting right? & that front cross member looks like it needs replacing as its really distorted.

yeah the bottom bar bit it sits on is still slightly bent even though i strighted best i could:n:

ppl before me couldnt drive:wall:

[Prickle]

Me personally would do the vt kit white and remove the black paint or w.e off the bonnet.

[Chris0211]

Do the whole car white, white VTs look amazing.

i wanted to do it white in all honesty but my mates was like it would look better black so just did it lol,

i can do it white i spose but, thinking about just buying a vtr coz i just got a new job with better pay :)

but i dunno yet

and personally i kinda like the bonnet lmao

[tomsmarty]

Should of been left all white, imo left as a flatarch aswell lol but thats just me.

[Mattquantrill101]

Glad u got rid of them awful lights :) not my thing. I like it mate, but i agree with everyone, turn it all white. What happened whith the front splitter?

[charlie7543]

i painted it white when i painted the bumper and all the crap of the road has took it of :n:

[becky_89]

not too sure on your bonnet but the rest of the car looks :y:

[citroen_saxo_vtr]

Spray it all white and it will look alot better, for some odd reason it looks odd to me and actually looks like a 1.1 tarted up, think its the black.

looks alright bar the bonnet imo....
