I trust you've since had all the serious replies you would have wished for in answer to a serious question...I do understand why you would want to make your Saab look less "company car" -like. Can't help much as I'm not in your part of the world, but Abbot racing (maybe already mentioned) would give you some good ideas on performance and appearance mods available. -- Regards, Danny http://www.gaggia-espresso.com (a purely hobby site) http://www.dannyscoffee.com (UK advert for my mobile espresso service) swap Z for above characters in email address to reply
