Styling Bradley606 Project Thread

[bradley606]

My Plans
​

• Purchase the tailpipe ​
• Purchase The mirror Covers​
• Fog lights are a must since scotlands weather is pants!​
• possibly get arbarth lights front and back. (Unsure to get these because of the colour of my car. Feel free to comment. Its chemical grey)​
• New headunit. totally unsure which one to get as i want to be able to use steering controls. Adapter?? or special headunit??

anyone else able to think of anyhting that could be done to my car that wont affect the warrenty. Not worth the paper its written on but arnold clark are a bunch of theifing ********! So i need all the help i can get.

will post Pictures 2m of what the car looks liek just now hopefully that will help people to advise me with what to do with the car.


all your feedback is much appreciated.

I will post most of my problems here or queries unless it annoys the mods or admin.


cheers again

what about the wheels?

 

[bradley606]

forgot about that. well mention haha. ment to add that in.

 

[ace2727]

tint windows, spray front top grille, change the fiat badges to red or the abarth ones, seat leon splitter, paint calipers, tint side repeaters, change interior lights, add footwell lights, kick plates, de-wiper the rear, speakers, i would say thats about it

 

[ace2727]

have you seen the grey headlamps you might wont them instead of the abarth ones

 

[bradley606]

I havent seen them. i need to make sure i dont viod my warrenty.

 

[punto_matt]

Please dont change to abarth badges you just look a prick with them on your car when nothing is abarth.

Headunit will say if its compatable with steering wheel controls or not when you buy it. If it is then you need to buy a wiring adapter which is about £55.

Grey lights wont void your warrenty as they are just what come standard on the series 2 GP's now so they are a genuine fiat part.

 

[bradley606]

i have an 08 plate punto so does that mean i have them. wouldnt dream of putting arbarth badges on lol. i would rather have the arbarth just my insurance because of the skyline crash.

 

[punto_matt]

No its only the series 2 and they are 58 plate onwards.

I got Wing mirror covers from Chris@souls for £28 +VAT a pair in matt black, Just incase you want to change and the price

 

[bradley606]

where would i be able to source one. would they be on shop4parts.co.uk

 

[bradley606]

yeah lee i am going to ge a pair after chrimbo primer ones and spray paint them myself. i fancy chrom ones but dont know if they would go with the grey car i have.

You could but they would be more pricey...

I dont think chrome one would go with grey to be honest, if you were to go for a black and grey theme, then id get the black covers, but that is up to you matey. Chris@Souls, id buy stuff from, get them cheaper than most places

 

[bradley606]

i have black ones that came with the car. are the ones that com from chris diffrent

 

[punto_matt]

Are the matt black ones textured plastic or smooth like primered?

 

[bradley606]

is there such a program that has a punto car on it that you can change parts and see what they look like. apart from photoshop. just too time consuming

 

[punto_matt]

Nope

 

[Aircooledbug]

In your avatar the caps are grey?

 

[bradley606]

not my car

 

[Aircooledbug]

Ahh, well I think the black and grey theme would be smart to be honest... Black wheels, black grilles, black tints, black head lights.... would look smart I reckon, but your choice
