I agree with Tim.

That is definately retro cool on a beige mobile, or the TRS

( but it would be trying too hard on a 16V. )

Fill up with 4*, rewind that Bananarama cassette and you are away.

Yes, well done Tim - that must be the only one in the Uk. Look forward to its arrival and fitting procedure!

I had actually considered one for the 16v too as I like them so much - it could only work on the early ones with the spoiler removed of course. Someone I know bought one here new, clips and all from a closing Citroen dealer which is more in the CX style. I've been trying to prise it from him. He's also got a collection of photos of different louvres on various BXs ( and he might be reading this?)

If Toddeo's 19TRD is anything to go by it'll look awesome, well done!
Hopefully Tim's will get to travel forwards down a road, not just sit in a barn! One day I tell you it will emerge into the light of day ( well, that's what I try to convince the wife with!)

Well I have it, it was made by those perveyors of 80s tat "AUTO-PLAS" and it has no fixings :roll: So will have to get some velchro tape then. Quite happy for £10 though, seller is a well known citroen bod, who sold the blue 19GT and Phils old 16TGS auto last year the at the CCC

Had no less than 3 CX turbos in the drive! :D
