    can look good if done properly, and lots of cash is thrown at it
    
    half hearted euro attempts are always an epic fail

    106 is nice!
    im guna get to the drawing board and see how much it will cost and what it would look like
    any pics of a saxo flat arch smoothed would be appreciated and im thinking unlike the 106 to smooth in the side strips or remove them and smooth over it. not sure whats best idea?

    Matt quit stealing my ideas. Although full smoothing the way i think you mean (i.e. smooth EVERY panel together) will crack like a bitch anytime you jack the car up or even on a hot day! Not a good idea IMO. Just keep it simple.
    
    I'll show you mine in 2 weeks time aye?
    
    Oh, and Chiddy's 106 is absolutely awesome. He put pictures up of his sump - not a pretty sight!

    not sure what to do whether its worth carrying on with ideas
    mikol ill see urs and be like yer im guna do mine then ill do mine for alot cheaper ha!

    Ahh that'd be telling
    
    Well my front end will be exactly like that except I'm keeping my numberplate. And I'll be meshing the grill to remove the crappy plastic thing in the middle. Smooth fogs FTW!
    
    And dude, be careful with cheapo paintjobs, the guy doing my work has worked on numerous cars in the FastCar top 50 (iirc) and his own car which people will have seen at FCS (Red 106, Gti Kit, 306 headlight conversion on Hydros) so he knows his stuff. I saw a cheap job not too long ago and there were runs in the lacquer that really detracted from a really nice car. So just check out this guy's work beforehand before you put the cash down dude.
    
    Still waiting on that text btw

    Good times.
    
    You coming the sax-p/106oc meet in Peterboro? It'll be done by then.
    
    Also unless it went to someone that last 106 is for sale currently IIRC.
    
    But yeah back on topic, I've seen people who've smoothed kits into their front bumpers or into their wings and they only run into problems when jacking the car up to change wheels or just routine maintenance. Could be pulled off but you'd need to be careful exactly what you smooth and what you dont.
