thinking about it mate. TBH since they suspended my order i cancelled it and got monies back 10 mins later lol.
Now deciding: on
-fibree glass bonnet with smoothed grill and a citreon badge in middle?? in black
-fibree glass bonnet with meshed grill in black or posi blue?
^would order the above from a maker on ebay rather then a shitty swish company that dont speak english -.-. theyre supplied in black? would it look tacky as the bonnet pretty much looks standard tbh
-slam pannel
-My headlights are fucked!. looking to buy smoked headlights as they about same price as standards and i cba 2 smoke them again
-standard posi bumper??? YEAH RITE! DO THEY EXISIT ANY MORE???
possibly about £300 then the rad and pump price ontop of that -.-.
OR
full mk1 facelift???? with a meshed grill....obviosuly
about £200 for all pieces needed? then an extra £140 for pump and rad??
Still deciding. If i choose the top one tho could be a extra week to have car back on road as also need to get xmas prezzies -.-
shit whilst were here. Any womanisers? WTF do i get the mrs for her birthday (28th dec) and xmas?? prefebly cheap? im about £400 out of pocket -.- as also need a rad and power steering pump???
cheers

Upto you mate on the saxo front and you can get a pump cheaper than £100
