Wrong, they dont. The only part that differs on mk2 is the shape of the headlights and grill, therfore arches / mouldings and bumpers are the same. Mouldings were off a mk1 and this was a T reg mk1......... fitted perfectly

I fitted a kit to a 1.1 back in the day here are the pics:

and now with its new owner it looks like this!

its beautiful! never ever caused any problems. Its now lowered 60mm all round on 15's.

I bonded the kit on with tiger seal and grinded the rear arches to follow the new arch curve, arches went straight on using tiger seal and duck tape to hold them in place.

The bumpers bolted straight on, and you make the whole kit up as its meant to go, id never attempted this before and it came out excellent!

12th July 2006, 20:55

wow is it that simple? i want mine to look just like your one!! its the bumpers and skirts i want sure on. are your hubs still 3 stud or have you converted them to 4????

12th July 2006, 20:56

isnt my car, hasnt been for a long while now, it is still a 3 stud thou.

Bumpers bolt straight on, i used tiger seal on the side skirts along the top and self tapping screws with washers underneath to hold it in, hasnt had any problems with it he loves it

would it be possible to do a pug 106 with the vt kit the same way its put on a standard saxo?????

12th July 2006, 21:00

very much doubt it as the body shell is different, you could try it but i doubt very much it will go on like it does on the saxos.

12th July 2006, 21:53

The arches would go on ok i think but i dunno about the bumpers, the bolt holes and crap might be in different places. the cars are vertually the same.

12th July 2006, 21:57

well they kinda are but id be inclined to say no they wont fit , but i wouldnt know for sure

12th July 2006, 22:00

IL probs just put the pug 106 gti kit on it, it will be easy than messing with the vt kit. dont suppose you know if its possilbe to change 3 stud hugs to 4 stud??
