[Mikey]

well if it was my saxo pal...id polish the vtr rims while its of the road. lower it around 60mm....and keep it simple

[Karl]

lower it, polish those wheels whilst you have time ;)

[Predator_R32]

keep it simple just put it back the way it was

smoked headlights and fogs

dimma grill

and lowered :y:

[crashtestdummy]

thanks guys!
really appreciated!

[VTS_16v_Boy]

As above really maybe smooth over the grill opening instead of the OE or Dimma grill. Looks pure class mate.

Apart from that just put it back together, dont forget the smoked headlights tho :y:

[shaggers_saxvtr]

Not to sure on the bonnet but once its sprayed I will decide. Angel eyes look good. Whats left to do now?

[crashtestdummy]

n/s/f wing, bonnet, bumper sprayed and fitted.

[gokan]

[Tobs]

whislts you got the front end off you should drop a vts in it

[Predator_R32]

lights yes but what the hell is that bonnet, get rid of it

[crashtestdummy]

nah aint getin rid of it!
i like it so thats all that matters

[k2thecsaxo]

good luck with the rebuild mate

have to agree on the old bonnet but its not my car so its up2 you buddy

[boss_1699]

Dont like the bonnet mate but if your goin to keep it on then get the grill bit Flush smoothed...

[nathb84]

That Bonnet, is it chav? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm. But if you like it.........

[djrem]

seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeex

[crashtestdummy]

it will be ready on friday so will get photos up after donnington! woohoo!

[Dan]

Not a fan of the bonnet I must say but, good progress mate

[VTS_16v_Boy]

Undecided on the bonnet on a standard sax it might draw the eye too much but with a change of bumpers to aftermarket items it could work.

Good luck and hope to see the finish item :y:

[Hopcraft]

fair play rebuilding it, you will learn a lot. should get it lowered while its off the road, 50/60 id say, lights are looking good, dunno about the bonnet though. keep it subtle ;)

[Japman]

good progress matey.......love the lights

[Mystic]

Nearly there now, bet your lookin forward to Friday then boyo ;)

I might be in dalkeith so give me a txt if your out n about!

[crashtestdummy]

[crashtestdummy]

[saxoash]

Standard Bonnet and Bumper and it would look miles better

[Hopcraft]

needs lowering and that mesh is just.....

[k2thecsaxo]

sorry mate dont really like it but if you do thats all that matters hey!! not sure on the choice of mesh either buddy

[crashtestdummy]

thanks for the comments guys...
i like it cos its different so it dont bother me.

[VTS_16v_Boy]

Maybe with a big set of wheels and maybe some slightly bigger side-skirts to beef up the look of the car to match the bonnet then it might look ok, but Im sorry the mesh just doesnt look rite ok.

Like I said though might be worth tryin to now beef up the rest of the car to match the front

[crashtestdummy]

ok thanks vts boy
defo be lookin bout for parts

[Stewart_1314]

I like this :) well done for sticking to your own aswell! If you like it then thats all that matters! Very true! Hope to see it in the flesh at some point

[Craig_6]

[Rob-6]

[davidharvey]

Why you changing now?
If you liked the bonnet, don't let everyone else dictate what your car should look like

[J222JRA]

Why you changing now?
If you liked the bonnet, don't let everyone else dictate what your car should look like

correct, it doesnt matter what anyone else thinks its your car!

[Taylor86]

I think the bonnet could look pretty good but needs some better black mesh instead of that shaped stuff... Looks nice in general though :)

Don't change you car to suit other peoples opinions... You do what you want mate :)

[Sneakydevil89]

looks really tidy your car. like waht youve done with it.

[SimonsSaxo]

looks very nicee stick to what you like dont go by everyone elses opinion as its your car

[BeckyBoo]

Nice car

[Maxamus]

Not Bad like the painted Wheels i was thinking of going white with mine but you may have swayed me with black now :P

[Kerryc]

Loving the all black look and the angel eyes, the bonnet doesnt do it for me though just reminds me of show cars, but the rest is pretty much spot on...but tbh its your car, you shouldnt really care what others think, your style is the best style for you

[D--R--E--W]

good progress like!!! had a few bumps of my own and it really sucks lol

[DannoWilko]

Your car your rules.... you like the bonnet keep it :) looks alright if you ask me... like the lights... well done mate

[GrahamB]

Good progress
