Default saxo makeover!

Looking to make my saxo look like this:



Where can I get the parts from, i.e. bonnet, bumper etc and rough estimate of cost?

Any help appreciated.

thanks

The bumper is standard, been smoothed and splitter added. Bonnet is a bad boy bonnet, they can be quite expensive.
Not too sure on prices for you. You would have to get the bumper filled and sprayed which would be quite expensive.

euro styling is very expensive

most stuff is custom
even suspensin is usually modified to get the 'stance'

and for the 3 piece rims most cars in that style use your looking over 1000 pounds without tyres

wtf? spent all that money on that car to get it looking beautiful and they put those mirrors on?and is that an alloy fuel cap i can see on the back?

Nice looking car though must say,but i suppose the suspension and wheels were the biggest cost. Bumper was probably the 3rd cheapest (after the mirrors and fuel cap lol)

all the bodywork mods are custom. you cant just buy them off the shelf.

the bonnet has been welded, bumper smoothed, grill custom made etc

iirc he said he had spent over 20k on that car. or something mad.

tbh you could get the same look for a lot less although the wheels will always be expensive.

they are tramont ty2's. your looking at about £1500 for the wheels and tyres

http://www.tramont.fr/

obviously there are other euro wheels about that you could pick up for half the price.

bodywork you could get done for under 1k unless you want a full respray? leather for about 600-1000 depending on what you want retrimmed. then you well on your way to achieving the look.

Looks smart as hell, always have liked this Saxo. But as said, if your thinking it's just gonna be couple of grand your wrong. Youve probably got that in wheels, tyres & suspension, without even starting bodywork and interior.

If you do decide to go ahead with it, make sure you get a GOOD bodyshop to do the work (unless your very good at stuff like this). Smoothing isnt as easy as you think, and you want it to be right
