Hey guys and girls,

So I've had my Bravo for just over 3 weeks now so thought I'd introduce myself properly. I have posted on here a few times already, mostly around my bulbs and LEDs and already had some brilliant help from some users. swift007 and Rigby to name a couple off the top of my head.

Anyway, I'm Jamie and I'm from the dark depths of Doncaster in South Yorkshire. Please don't blame me, that's where my parents made me.

I used to have a Fiat Punto Evo but due to unforseen circumstances (me parking it in a ditch!) it's now gone to automobile heaven. But fear not, this has led me to what I believe is a better car for me, and probably a better car overall.

I have the Bravo 1.9TDI MultiJet 120 Dynamic in black. I'll try and get some pictures up in the next few days.

As far as modifications go, I've already swapped my interior lights for LEDs and plan to change my sidelights, headlights and number plate lights for LEDs also.

Future plans also include carbon wrapping the mirrors and door pillars and possibly having the whole car painted/vinyl wrapped white, leaving the roof black. I also intend to purchase some black wheels at some point.

Any hints/tips/advice/warnings about these or any other aspects of my car would be much appreciated.

Cheers dudes and dudettes

If your wrapping here's some ideas


Also where's the pictures of your bravo dude show it off

Check it out pal

I intend to get the car all white apart from roof, wing mirrors and wheels

That would be like the second picture Swift posted. It looks really badass like that. If you do carbon wrapping, I suggest also do the black parts on the doors. Will look even cooler

Yeh that's what I meant when I said carbon fibre wrap for my door pillars.

Not sure whether to invest in some black wheels or to have my current wheels painted black cos I quite like the standard ones and I'd like to keep the Fiat hub caps too

Let me get it washed up and cleaned first. I'm at work at the minute but will try and get one up tomorrow morning

Or this lol

I did contemplate this but I am on the fence with it, as my wheels match the chrome handles on my car

My door handles are chrome too. How easy/hard would it be painting them to match?

Dunno know dude not my thing to say lol

Well I'm sure we could give you some good advice on the wheels when you post pics up and we can see which type of wheels you have. Also take into consideration if you're gonna do Carbon wrapping it isn't quite the same colour as black and will be a bit lighter and reflect the sun rays and make it look black-grey-brown which is the trademark Carbon Fibre colour, so black wheels might not be the perfect fit. An example of these was posted in Mathew's thread www.fiatforum.com/bravo/335956-my-new-bravo-d-7.html and swift also has seen the post. They look pretty neat on this colour and will compliment the Carbon Fibre.

Lovely car. However seeing it I can instantly say don't do the wheels black. Too much black just doesn't look good on a car with such voluptuous curves

That's the best I've got at the moment. It should open them up bigger if you click them though. I'll get some more tomorrow morning when I'm not at work and I've washed it.

Yeh I agree. I wouldn't even consider black wheels unless the car was going white, which is an option I am considering.
