You have the cost of the kit
Cost of the fitting (unless you do it yourself)
Cost of spraying (unless you get the same colour)
Arches will have to be cut on the 1.1 I think
Cost of declaring it to the insurance company (probably the most expensive)

ANYTHING you do, you should run past your insurance company first. Else you run the risk of them dropping you should you crash. And if you've hurt somebody, then you're the one footing the compensation claim & car repair.

Your insurance could even rise above what it'd cost to insure a standard VTR, as modified cars tend to have higher premiums that standard higher spec cars.
I advise to ring them BEFORE you do it, to get an idea of what the insurance would go up by. Then its up to you to decide if its worth it or not.

Also bear in mind, SOME insurance companies only cover about 5 modifications.

i spend agesss looking on ebay for a vt kit ofmy old saxo in the right colour, and every one i did find was over priced to f***

then i started searching at scrap yards and private sellers and had one straight away for £20,

my advice would be ring up scrap yards, and search for people breaking saxos in the same colour, oh and dont listen to what other people have to say, what you do with your saxo is up to you, dont take any notice of the bad others dish out -.-
