You haven't mentioned what colour the car is.. and Gloss black pretty much goes with any colour.

lol sounds like i better watch it! ive bought a 4 gauge wiring kit for it cuz it came with a t1 600watt amp, just hope I do it right and it dont set on fire! my mrs says "your a right chav" and my reply is "bollocks", im gunna do it right like soundproofing the whole car etc so hopefully itll take the stereotypical view away of a saxo owner, personalisation is the key i think!

Progress update
Hi guys, bit of an update!
Iv just finished retrimming all the door cards in faux suede, looks quite nice! Iv mdf'd and carpeted the boot and stuck my hefty sub in the back (but the amps broke so cant see how it booms lol) ive put a new rocker cover gasket on and painted the cover antracite. Pics will be up soon - let me know what you think!

i reckon black gloss wheels would look much better. Stand out more from the white body

Doorcards look mint mate!
Stick with the white wheels though, unless your going to refurb the black one's then i'd say go black
Get some tyre shine on the bump strips as a temporary meaure, should bring them up a nice dark black colour with a slight gloss finish

Hey guys, just a quick update, ive bought some 205 GTI speedline alloys for the beast in white, gonna collect sun and ill put sum pics up-if i can get my bloody stuck wheel nut off! Im also collecting a stainless backbox up sun and have bought some rear smoked lexus lights-hope they look ok! Slowly making progress......A quick qusetion, when i slap the new wheels on (£100 what a bargain new tyres aswell) im considering putting spacers on but not sure whether theyre really necessary, how low would yougo with it? bearing in mind i live by roads covered in fuckin speedbumps!
