   Hey all,
   I'm looking to get a new VT kit for my car as the one currently on has seen better days, and I've started to hate the meshed bumper.
   
   My question is, are 'black' Saxo's all the same black?
   
   I've seen a few VT kits but they're just advertised as 'black', no special paint code or anything.
   
   Thanks in advance

   I know that there's different paint codes and names, but I wanted to know if there was any noticeable difference between the colours, as I can't really see there being any?
   
   Thanks though

   Even if there is a slight difference, I doubt you will notice it.
   
   And even if you did get a kit that was exactly the same colour, it might still be different due to the paint on the car fading with age...
