will be the only mod'd five door saxo on sax-p (apart from lee rushdons, but he dont come on here anymore so he doesnt really count! smileys/smiley17.gif ) i think that deserves a medal in itself!

[Smithy]

Gonna look tidy jamie. Bout time ain't it? smileys/smiley4.gif

[SaxoAL]

nice one mate . Something to look forward to, is it all stayin white??

[djbex]

How much did that all cost you mate?
look really good tho smileys/smiley2.gif

smart smileys/smiley17.gif

[Ripper3]

Its gonna look a little weird i think, nice,m but a little weird, w/nice simple sideskirts(kk, its a 5 door, no swoopin sideskirts, or they wont get in) w/a nice simple front (good for speedbumps i guess) and then a HUGE and totally different rear (well, its wot most people r gonna c of ur car i guess! smileys/smiley17.gif)

[JamieB]

smithy - yes its about time, has been sitting in my garage for bout 6/8 weeks collecting dust on its bubble rap!

saxoal - yes, its all staying white, am getting the top half of my front bumper sprayed white to match the cliche front bumper, only things at the mo that will be black are the side strips, door handles and wing mirrors (which still havent been wired up after having them for bout 3 months!!!)

djbex - b'coz its a local company, the price was always gonna be more expensive, so its costing me £750 to have it all fitted and sprayed! but my mums gone half wit me so its all gud!

ripper - i think it will look pretty gud! did always want a new complete rear bumper and have always like the looks of the gladiator one, i reckon it shud all pretty much be the same length downwards wen its all dun, coz the front bumper as standard is lower to the floor than the rear, and vis aversa with the new bumpers (rear bumper is closer than the front to the floor) so i think it shud work out alright!

yes it is 5 doors (which does suck big time) but thats wot i got given, so am making the most out of wot i have got!

[djbex]

Good reply mate, here here !!!!!


lol smileys/smiley2.gif

[JamieB]

Good reply mate, here here !!!!!


lol smileys/smiley2.gif

ahh thank you!!!! smileys/smiley20.gif smileys/smiley2.gif

[alex19]

u ahve to buy the sideskirts specail to fit the 5 doors???

[jamesg88]

very nice, would look better on bigger alloys in my opinion though...

[alex19]

5 spokes aswell!!

[JamieB]

very nice, would look better on bigger alloys in my opinion though...

u read my mind james!!! smileys/smiley2.gif i am hoping to get sum 16's and get them sprayed white and then lower it!

and yes alex, wen i ordered it, i had to say my car has five doors as there are only a few kits out ther that fit a 5 door saxo!

[alex19]

and y u not took the s off the linsence plate??

[jamesg88]

its a gift Jamie i dont know what to say smileys/smiley17.gif , will look sweet as on white alloys and lowered and its a 5 door ! not often you will see a car like yours around.

[Ripper3]

I think the alloys r pretty nice, simple multi-spoke
Yea, the sideskirts need 2 b alittle longer i think, plus, they cant have any parts that swoop up, or it would either b the death of ur sideskirts, or the need 2 weld up the door or somethin smileys/smiley17.gif
Neways, kk, that explained it, yea, i think its a bit thick of Citroen 2 make the front bumper lightly lower 2 the ground than the rear...which one is gonna b more likely 2 scrape on speedbumps?!
Sorry, i gotta stop talkin about speedbumps, sounds like i gots a fetish or somethin! smileys/smiley11.gif

[JamieB]

and y u not took the s off the linsence plate??

dunno, just didnt! thought id leave it there so people can see wot year my saxo is! not that it is really important or anything!

[alex19]

just say you've got a this yr coz no 1 will probly no wat yr an s reg is!!!

they'll probly only no if there car is a s reg!!!

[JamieB]

ripper3 - got a bit confused wen u were on about the death of my sideskirts! smileys/smiley5.gif was just gonna get sum tecnomagnesio detriot f1 16" rims! still mutli spoke but a bit more interesting! i reckon the rear bumper wud be the one that wud catch the speed bumps but wud only do this if the car was full up on the back bench

[starkie]

must say m8 im glad its going in at last lol.. is gona look mint.. cum round and show me yer ?

[oz_borne]

seriously, don't spray whit, keep silver, lower, get that kit on, and then, BOMB IT AROUND THE TOWN!!!

oz smileys/smiley14.gif

[alex19]

i'm not sure if it would look better if he removed the black plastic bits on the sides!!!

[JamieB]

oz, it aitn silver u muppet! thats the colour it came! its the primer colour it comes in! will be looking at lowering it prob after xmas or around then!
and i dont think i will be bombing it around town or in general for a while!!! smileys/smiley2.gif i was liking the colour of the red vts that was at the meet last weekend!!! was really nice and clean! that wud b the only colour i wud get if i was to get a re-spray! heres a photo for you all:-
http://www.sax-p/misc/glp_show-photophtid=5362
(isnt the best pic for the colour of it, but it is a bright red)

alex - i am wanting to remove the bump stripes on the side, my only concern is whether or not the back bumper will end up sticking out where the bump strips have been removed! cud get myself the kit that some saxos have where they have the bump stripes blended in to the car - i think its a sheet of metal that sits on top of the stripes and goes to the bottom of the door! smileys/smiley5.gif does this make any sense?

[SaxoAL]

yeh, i think thats what bodyshops do mate. then jus fibreglass and fill the rest

[JamieB]

dont mean to sound stupid saxoal, but wot are u on about? r u talking about the smoothing in of the bump stripes?

[C2_VTR]

Where abouts is the body shop you getting your work done Jamie? I need to get something fixed on mine but donno really any that I would trust with my car! the ones that I would feel confortable with all quote me silly prices!

[SaxoAL]

dont mean to sound stupid saxoal, but wot are u on about? r u talking about the smoothing in of the bump stripes?

Yes. Muppet!...



LOL. soz, had to say that!</font>

[C2_VTR]

[Smithy]

Couldn't believe how low marks car is! But there was room for mud i can assure you! I just couldn't be arsed cleaning mine! Got filthy coming home though.

[C2_VTR]
