   I really don't know if i should t cut my rear badges. I have a wicked red saxo and not sure if the black badges would look good on it. Anyone got any pics of the same car with these badges. Really need some opinions. Thanks

   my chevrons are black sprayed grill wicked red. My vtr alloys im getting were going to be sprayed white. Duno if white wheels with black chevrons and back badges would look good.

   seems like you have a red and black theme going on really,and white wheels won't really suit, so maybe think of black or anthracite wheels and do your badges black also

   t-cut them mate, it is the only use for tcut as it is VERY abrasive.. be careful not to touch paintwork with it

   Any pictures of your motor - maybe someone could photoshop some mods on it for ya
   With the black and red theme your having I would personally spray the alloys black and use a thin paint brush to put some red citroen chevrons on them
   If ya have black rear lights it should look immense
   Or maybe you spray them Gloss Black and have a red stripe through folling the letter in the middle - never been done before I think

    its very abrasive and in a way can take a layer of paint off, hard to describe but just better to stay away

    Have you got a flatarch? Tom5190 has an immaculate example of a wicked red saxo.
