    pick up a black one off here or ebay then either do it your self from wilsys guide or ask a body shop to fit it should be alot cheaper that way!

    that will be a price excluding the kit because if you bought the parts all from citroen youd be over a k for parts alone. just get a second hand one then get st uniqe to paint it the fit it with some mates
