The more AS hate it, the more I want to do it! 

I think I speak for many here when I say we would just hate it if you sympathetically improved it, didn't piss around with ridiculous colours, and reaped the benefits of the hard work you've already put into it by selling it at a modest profit, making some money and giving yourself a much needed mojo boost. 

We'd hate that. You shouldn't do it.

That would be a terrible situation

I quite like the orange accent tones idea - breaks up the all-white vibe, which (IMHO) can make the little Cit appear more appliance-like than it needs to.

Those aren't GT alloys either, I don't think - so should fit ok?

(When I was looking into AXs a while back, I was informed that GTs had completely reprofiled round rear arches, and as such GT alloys weren't compatible with standard models without a fair bit of work)

Yep, but I've replaced both as you should always do suspension stuff in pairs, or so I'm told. Plus there were two provided with the car.

Springs and shockers yes, other stuf doesn’t matter

Yeah, they're TZE alloys, same ones @Six-cylinder has on his too I think. 

The idea with doing the wheels/stripe is that they're all replaceable/ removable. 

The 'Cascade' stripe and graphics have to go anyway, I doubt I'd find another driver's door the same colour and design, and this one is knackered.

To be fair, the value of these is going up, although this isn't the best example. 😕

White wheels might look better. 

But so might fixing the dents. 

I think you've done the stupid colours to death, so maybe go white for the wing mirrors and have the interior trimmed in white.....fur...

Velvet wrap or bedliner could work.

The drivers door is pure rust on the bottom inch, with the front corner being rust and structural hammerite 😂

Just to give you some evil paint colour ideas that everyone will hate, @DoctorRetro - this is what the AX looked like before I bought it, sadly the alloys got sold separately before I got to the party!
