Re: show us your mods

Love what you've done so far, I wasn't sure on the alloys which I've seen in one of your previous posts, but that close up pic sure does look good.
Very jealous of your screens - Been 'um' ing and 'ar' ing over whether to do this or not.

Looks good lowered aswell - How is it for speed bumps etc?

I've:

- Painted my callipers red
- Fitted a full Vibe system
- Changed from white to red interior stitching
- Changed to Abarth badges
- Remaped
- Fitted stripes
- Blacked out my front end
- Tinted my windows
- Added bonnet vents
- Fitted a recording camera
- Changed to PIAA Super White Bulbs
- Blue Phillips Ultra Sidelights
- Silver Indicators (Arriving this week)
- Custom carpets made to measure (Arriving this week)

Re: show us your mods

Re: show us your mods

Scott, do you have an active/dynamic?

If you do there aint too much you can do bout it riding high. Ive dropped mine 40mm and it stilll looks way too high, but as a lot of people will tell you, a bigger drop than 40mm will put a lot of strain on the car and will most likely damage it.

lol, my favourite material in the world !!! VINYL

If you look on your GP's door, you'll notice it's got black vinyl between the front and rear window

Re: show us your mods

love your car shane it looks awesome, especially in the best colour ORANGE, lol. just wondering where you got you headrest monitors from and how much they set you back? also are they linked to your DVD headunit or via a separate DVD player, i ask his as i am considering getting a set but i don't want to replace my headunit as i'll lose my steering wheel controls.
