was like this when i bought it, the reiger rear bumper had been chopped to accomodate exhaust  surely would have made more sense to sort exhaust position out but no matter, tempted to cut whole lower section off!  may look pants though, Normal gsi spoiler is on its way so the saxo extension will be no more, also tempted to remove rear tints, could always get them redone afterwards

humm noticed and lights and front if you chopped the bottem half off then it would just be a standard bumper. might be cheaper to buy a new back bumper

recognise the wheels?
plate comes off
filler goes on
spray goes on
 getting there now, removed indicators for the morettes(sending tomorrow dava) still need to smooth off holes, filled all cracks in and gave it a spray, just temporary till i can get it done properly.
also got the new plates on, front looks awsome now, will get some pictures tomorrow back end still a bit chavvy for my liking, just waiting for the Gsi spoiler to come and dull it down

right, not amused, the gsi spoiler my mate ordered was a fibreglass one 
so i set about removing the saxo from my (genuine  ) spoiler, left 2 nasty holes which have now been filled, also sanded front bumper down to remove horrible bump, should be getting it sprayed properly next week
