   i recently got a red strutbrace for my saxo which is posi blue. i think the red is quite a cool contrast when you open the bonnet. i was thinking of going for a red rocker cover too, maybe other bits and pieces and hoses, without going over the top.
   has anybody else done this? do you think it would look good?
