   bonjour
   
   im at abit of a cross roads with a colour scheme at the min for my saxo.
   
   its a black mk2 vts.
   
   ive done with the performance mods at the min as im happy with the car at the min so ive decided to focus on the body work and colour scheme as its letting the car down at the min.
   
   now ive been having a think and ive narrowed it down to a couple of choices and id like your opinion good or bad on my ideas.
   
   1.keep the black "stealth theme" by getting some black pro race 1.2s as well as black coil pack badge and standard door badges
   
   2.black and white theme, white pro race 1.2s white door badges and white coil pack badge
   
   2. black and white theme 2- as above but with vts alloys instead of pro race wheels
   
   heres some pics of the car as it is atm-
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   be grateful ffor your opinions good or bad
   
   thanks

   I quite like the idea of the black.
   I'm a fan of the subtle look. Have ya considered the pro race 1.2 with the coloured lip? I reckon the blue lip would look ace on the black car

   one reply?
   
   come on sax-p
   
   i am thinking about the all black sleeper look but i dont fancy any colour around the lip tbh. if i had a posi blue vts then i reckon id go for the black with the blue lip that would look good.
   
   anyone else?

   this thought had also crossed my mind tbh. i had a photo shop done with anthracite vts alloys and it didny look too good imo on a black car.
   
   if the car was any other colour it would have look really good, like white for example. (the car colour)

    tbh if you want a sleeper... keep it standard
    
    Personally i think Black Pro Race 1.2s will look too black, anthracite could look lovely

    I think vts alloys will look better than pro race wheels
