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. 😘 Dick Longbridge, loserone, wuvvum and 7 others 1 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datsuncog Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 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) tooSavvy and DoctorRetro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 hour ago, djoptix said: modest profit To be fair, the value of these is going up, although this isn't the best example. 😕 Datsuncog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
