shortened dampers for a start!! GMC do bilstein ones which are for the Ax but fit the saxo. probably have to remove the arch liners and trim the rear arch brackets. you'd also probably have to replace ball joints,CV joints, wheels bearings and tyres a lot quicker than normal, you run the risk of fucking the gearbox, not to mention kissing goodbye to even remotely average handling 
wouldnt advise it tbh.

don't do it mate, unless you wana fuck your car completely
imo - not worth the hassle, specially just to look "good" for a few months

you could of course buy coilovers for the front, i'm sure you can get them for the sax although i couldnt tell you any companies off the top of my head. lowering the rear of course is a piece of piss.
