You either need to lower it, or put the standard backbox back on imo. I just think it looks a bit daft being the only mod on the car.

Looks spotless though! And I like the yellow!

Not putting that back on. it has a chrome tip on the end so its not much different then then i have on now tbf. I thought these exhaust sat level with the bumper anyway!? mine sits out abit as you can see.





And thanks i did it to match the 'S' on the door panel. :) :oops:

I know these are only daft updates but meh..

I know most people think they are chavvy etc but the car rolled out the factory with them on so i want them back on regardless of peoples thoughts.

Yday post;

Was meant to do the '16V' badges today, the pin for the gear stick thing and brake slider stuff but the rain/snow etc has stopped that.

Tommorows job and with a ref guide as to where the badges go. ;) You will probs why im putting them back on.. because i want to and thats how it came out of the factory. :p




Today;

Fitted the slider pins etc etc and also fitted my 16V badges. :D

Next job tommorow is finish the cam cover and thats it till i get a centre section.







:D

Fair play for wanting it standard mate. If you can get it 100% mint and as it rolled out of the factory then thats pretty cool. But it does have some odd bits like the yellow calipers and the supersprint. I reckon subtle lowering and it will all look spot on. Proper oem style if anything.

Yeah i suppose but i havent got OEM++ or anything shit like that lol. (not going there)

Tbh bar the backbox and HU the car is completly standard lol. Exterior wise there isnt going to be any shit smoked headlights, silly coloured wheels or badges tbh. :) Staying as it is.

And cheers. :hug:

I'm thinking about whacking my kam system on purely because my car is immaculate and the rusty vtr backbox is letting it down big time!

Yes. Well mine had a pin hole in it anyway at the back of it. I had no intention of keeping the standard backbox.

Meh... Its fine Christopher.

Next update will be my centre section when i finally get one. :homme:

xscottxx 5th March 2012 16:34

looks really clean but i agree with the lowering! not only will it look 10x better, it will handle better too.

and i mean do it properly with decent springs, it will improve the car, and you can always put it back to standard anyway!

im working around the car Chros. One thing at a time. ;)

Prickle 12th March 2012 00:51

Next week i should have in the post

Catback centre section
Black paint
Powerflex exhaust rubbers

Week after should be new droplinks, new powerflex? bushes for the roll bar or w.e it is and springy exhaust bit that goes between the downpipe and cat join. Im pretty sure mine sqeaks and it looks past its best anyway. Im working around the front end uprating rubbers and making sure its pretty damn fuckin sweet.

Small updates i know but thats that. :D

Looks nice, try and keep it clean and subtle. Attention to all little details is everything!

Also as said I've never seen a Saxo sit so high lol
