   First Of All Let Me Start By Sayin Hello And Congrats On The Great Forum
   I have just bought my first car its a 3 door 1.1 saxo.
   I Really like the idea of adding other colours like colouring door mirrors and badges etc.
   Problem is I cant think of a colour that will look good on a gold car.
   Any Advice is muchly appreciated I have searched the internet and cant really find anything other than black and it already has black on it.
   Any Ideas

   It will look tacky.
   
   Do things which make it look more attractive, black badges, mesh grill, colour code headlights inserts, vtr alloys, lowered, just to name a few

   All of the above is currently on my to do list But I seen a black car with orange wing mirrors orange badge orange trim around the grill and the entire inside was black and orange as well and I was amazed
   
   Just struggling to find a colour that will go with gold.

   black goes with gold. badges, grill, mirror caps, vtr alloys, all in black would look top dog with it lowered 35mm

   Black and orange compliment each other so well, like blue and white, you could try light grey, or silver?

   I wasnt even going to attempt to lower it because when I bought it the guy had just put a new axle on it at the back and it is now really low at the front and higher at the back
