   i am getting my rub strips smothed by YM03 as we speak and he will also be spraying my front and rear bumper and sideskirts if i decided to change the colour i was thinking of doing the botton half of the saxo in audi dolphine grey so it will kinda look like the pics i had photoshoped for me wasjust wanting to know what u all think.
   
   there is also a pic of the wheels dun in the same colour..
   
   there is also white but not to sure about that.
   
   just thorght i would add i dont have that front bumper or rear bumper anymore also took the spoiler off and colour coded the wing mirrors.
   
   i have a tittan front bumper and sypher rear bumper on it now.

   Not sure the blue would look good with any colour two tone.
   
   Sorry, just my opinion, I would keep it blue and colour code

   I personally would leave it one colour mate, the gray looks crap (in my opinion), and the white makes it look like it needs a spray. But its ur choice, would look different. If u were gonna do it out of the two i wud choose the gray

   i think i am likeing the middle one as well but not sure i willl have a think about doing the wheels as well will see what it looks like with them silver first.
   
   also would it cost a lot to get the wheels sprayed???

    well mate check out "spray by design" in Swindon. they quoted me about that to get mine acid dipped and sprayed/powdercoated. i know that there is "Dawsons" bodyshop in bournemouth which is known really well known for modified cars. but my cousin took his 106 there and i must say the job they did was crap
