sunstrip in England....

if you really must, go for a nice subtle one, unless you genuinely do forget your driving a saxo and therefore feel the need for the letters plastered all over the front of your car.

smoked headlights, t-cut the badges. what have you got against lowering, flat arches look like 4x4s at standard height

Fair dos i already removed the side badges would lyk to do the rear ones but dont wana remove and there be a big hole there lol, seems more haters towards sunstips ill leave it abit. I don't like the look of lowerd saxo's they look tacky thats just my opinion though.
Think i should start lookin at performance parts now my engine bay dirty than ever though lol.

pointless spending money on performance parts , it wont make a bit of difference to a 1.1
as for colour on calipers....yellow :y:

if i was you, the 'performance' parts i would be looking at are vt brakes. the best mod for a 1.1 imo

yh ill take a look at ur progress thred i mite get round to makeing one too :p Also i do agree i see some saxos looks like theres loads of weight in them and there draggin along the ground you kno what i mean...but if the lower is subtle and not bye too much it can look good! Ive herd lowering can make your rear axel more prone to camber tho :p

don't listen to pub chat and all the dweebs who hang round the wyvern chatting like they know anything, if a beam is lowered the CORRECT way it will suffer no ill effects whatsoever, its when un-educated tail ends start lowering them by notches and knocking trailing arms off that it all starts going pear shaped and if you let one of these monkeys near your car you deserve all you get anyway
