   This thread is not about if you like or dislike bodykits.
   
   Been thinking of a body kit for a while. But cant find any i like.
   
   Want something that looks 'mean' 'beefy' but not tacky.
   
   Had a look on ebay but cant find any i like,
   
   Carzone is way to big for a small car.
   Demon looks too standard.
   Dimmer is about as cool as lexus lights.
   Gladiator looks too standard also.
   Titan just looks horrifically tacky and stupid.
   
   
   Can anyone recommend one that i might like?
   
   The green stuff is available.

   this may not be what you are looking for, but if i HAD to put some form of body kit on as im not a big fan, would gettin the car lower and adding some front and rear bumper add ons, but gettin them smoothed to the original bumper not look good? like a new plastic trim with vents for the bottom of the front bumper, wouldnt look tack nor in your face would just give it a different subtle look
   
   just an idea

   dimma is one nice bodykit. and thats about it. I've yet to see anything subtle or that complements the saxo.
   
   Ironically, the best bodykit is the Cliche Kit which is designed for base models.
   
   
   Paul have you considered something similar to this:
   
   
   
   body kit for a 106

    the only other body kit that can look ok (appart from the dimma) is the street specials but its got to be an all out show car really and it costs a lot of £££££££££££££££

    the sideskirts will give you a right head ach you will need to get some 16" alloys on or you wont be able to get over any bumps
