Saxo 1.1 - My First Car

Pretty cool :) i reckon the rear lights are a tad too dark but it's up to you. Smoke the headlights? De wiper? All easy cheap mods

Admins rules

Instead of buying a new aerial you could smooth over it? Do some simple interior mods aswell like paint the dash inserts?

Seems a clean wee motor though

Admin rules

With the arial can just get a blanking plug to cover the hole, my radio still works without an arial. As said simple things can be done like dewiper, smoke your front headlights and maybe change your mirrors to some standard ones?

Admin rules

You can actually buy interior mounting aerials, but to be fair, I don't like the radio stations =P Does your headunit not have a USB, Aux or SD card input? Also I think it would look a bit piss if it was just smooth. =\

And as you say that, the postman has just posted my new xenon bulbs for the headlights, side lights and fogs! :D

Have to have something in that aerial hole or else you will ruin your headliner

Looks nice, could do with a few changes and it will be mint. Kit looks like its been fitted well.

the handle on the boot and the grill could be doing with a bit of paint to match the rest of the car. and as said the rear lights are a bit dark. looks good though :y:

This will be second time lucky with my xenons! Last time the postman put a friggin rock on them so that they wouldnt "Fly away". -.-"

LMAO I would have found that postman and :wall: lol
Send me a pic of your xenons later on in your car mate :D did you get light blue sidelights or all white?

White sidelights mate, blue doesn't look good on a black car in my eyes =P Will try and get pics if I possibly can, phone has decided to play up and not want to run any apps, gonna have a look at the execution code thingie on it see if the code is corrupting, if it works ill have it on!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2509776234...84.m1438.l2649 theres the ones I bought, im not into blinding lights, just a purer light and a tiny bit brighter. :D

Admin rules

Yeah, I got a couple, my suggestion if you get the "www.saxperience.com" ones then stick them in a haynes manual or something of the same size to flatten them out, or you'll get big creases in them =)

Admin rules

hey mate, i have that head unit if you have any problem working it out just drop me a message, i also have a set of mk2 rear lights and the darker mk1 rear lights for sale i also have some sideskirts if you interested drop me a message :y:

car looks tidy, if it was mine id tint the headlights, put number plate in its original place, colour coded de-slatted grille with black chevrons, standard mirrors with mirror caps and a painted boot handle, lower the car and then leave it an enjoy

Admin rules

cool cool just let me know if you want anything :y:

Bought stuff again

Sorry for such a late reply mate, and yes its so that the sticker is nice and flat after being folded, just put mine on today, pain in the arse to tell you the truth, they wanted to stick to the backing rather than the peice they were meant to stick to.

I also got my lights all fitted, look the mutts nuts! Just be very gentle with the removal and refitting, they are in quite stiff and if you are doing the fog lights then I feel sorry if it is lowered! I just managed to get under mine and get them out. Ill post pictures when my phone decides to work better. =)

keeping my eye on this

Admin rules

as long as you scuff the trim with like 400paper and plastic primer then any paint will work really.can go wrong with halfrauds paint tbh

Dmin rules

looks pretty smart, not sure if its just me but the rear wheels look like they could do with some spacers maybe? like it tho :y:

looks pretty shweet matey. not the standard grill is it?

Someone's going to get sued by Simo for selling those.

rear lights
 

keep your rear lights black i got a lime green saxo vtr i just re sprayed and i got black rear lights looks great with the car
tell me how you put pics on here and a profile as i just joined also

I don't think I will be keeping my rear tail lights as they don't suit the car as much as I thought they did when I bought it, so they will be getting changed once pay day comes for sure lol :) If you check out the FAQ around the forum they will explain how to upload pictures! Photobucket is the best for this!!
