hi mate, ye i got 6000k h4 high / low and they cost me i think 60+ direct from a seller...with glare caps on or whatever their called, worth it though...i think 8000k look too blue

Its pay day today and I have my driving test on Thursday so who knows maybe I can be driving my car myself by the weekend which I will be looking forward too showing it off around the town. :)

Some things I have been thinking about buying;-
Morette Or Angels Headlights?
Cluster Tail Lights
Blue or Black Saxo Mud Flaps?
More neons inside (for show)

I might be looking to change my VTS alloys to another type but im not too sure which will suit it best?

krissy_vtr 21st February 2012 17:07

keep the vts alloys mate, nice n oem but if lookin for a change go for diff colour or a fresh refurb

joel666 21st February 2012 17:25

hate replica's, looking ok though to be honest... only problem is you have ruined it with the huge chavvy "saxo" decals up the side. i really liked a blue vtr that had those on and i didnt buy it simply because of those stickers looks rediculous in my eyes

krissy_vtr 21st February 2012 19:08

why u hatin on the guy?for a 1st car its great.looks of vt without running costs of one.
graphics are also purely personal.i have been toying with some decals but only looks good if done n placed properly

GazWatson 22nd February 2012 11:38

I understand where you are coming from with the decals, if im honest when I put the 'Saxo' up the side I thought it looked good and then when I looked at it more I didn't like it but it does grow on you and I think if I add something else towards the back of the wheel arch it will look good. I am going with the Rally feel to the car once I get the mud flaps etc but I understand what your saying mate. :)

As for the VTS alloys im going to keep them but im unsure if I should change the colour or keep them as black? Thanks Krissy, I think it looks very good as well plus your right without the running cost indeed.

Love the colour coded back box :P Looks a great car to start off with

Mrjayware 22nd February 2012 11:54

Looks nice for a first car!!
Looks like its got all the vtr/vts bumpers and that one (which i think look but than the 1.1 Bumpers)
Sub box looks like a killa! Does it even fit in the boot?
Whats the wattage?

GazWatson 22nd February 2012 12:00

Cheers lads, yeah the bodykit does look amazing and time has been spent putting them together which is great but I am missing the side skirting which will need replaced but its not a big problem for me just now. The sub just abouts fits in the boot but I might be getting a smaller one so I can still use the boot but i've not linked it up to the car yet as im waiting on buying the correct cables and a decent amp to power it but the music system will be last on my mind for the next couple of months.

If I end up spraying the wheels again im not too sure what colour would be best??
Going from black to white or even another bright colour so it stands out??

krissy_vtr 22nd February 2012 12:14

stick with fresh refurb in black,get them nice n shiney :y: takes bout 3days if u want it done properly but if u do,have the tyres taken off 1st.if u paint inside the band its less likely the will flake

krissy_vtr 22nd February 2012 12:17

also pm'd u bout the black headlights,if still interested let me know as goin on gumtree in mornin if ur goin diff route for lights

GazWatson 22nd February 2012 12:54

yeah I might do that and also get the inside painted like air vents etc, just need to time to buy the paints and make sure I get the correct ones lol

krissy_vtr 22nd February 2012 18:51

plastic primer on plastics, etch primer on bare metal and primer for pre-painted surfaces.
any paints for colour

Liking the look so far mate, I'm feeling to go down the rally/race look as well (been playing too much forza lately) think it looks propper nice and unique out on the road. Also white alloys would look peak on a posi. :)
Shall keep and eye on this might err borrow some ideas. Get a picture up of the decs so far?
