Current Mod's;

Lowered 40mm on PI springs,
17" x 8 Antera alloys on 40mm tyres,
Two 1000W pioneer subs, a 2000W amp (not sure about the rms) & a pioneer head unit,
OMP twin tip back box,
A set of high-low 8K HID's,
K&N 'style' induction kit (nothing to do with performance as my punto is only a 1.2 but just to fill out the engine bay a bit and look better),
Italian metal pressed no. plates,
Front calipers painted,
Bee sting aerial,

Then I have the leon splitter to be fitted at some point,
& a set of reclining half bucket seats to go in if I get round to it.

Future Plans;

Next thing I'm hoping to do is go lower,
Spraying the top grill black (can't decide if i should bother doing this or not?)
Get the windows tinted, this was previously done with some halfords tint haha, didn't turn out to well so I'm leaving it in to get done,
Then maybe a few small things like wind deflectors etc.
Would also like to get the leather steering wheel and gear knob, but don't know where to get them, but that's not really on the list at the moment.


Here's some pictures of the car below..

:slayer:Looking good mate(y), how much did your back box set you back? and which paint did you use on your calipers?, just the calipers done or drums too?:rolleyes:

Keep it up!
 
Looking good mate :D I got the same 1.2, Same colour. Getting mine colour coded next week as for some reason it wasnt :S

Get some pics up of the splitter when you got it on... its always temped me up never seen a good enuff pic of it to make me do it.

Also de-badge the "punto" sign off the back. looks alot better. ill try get a pic up for you.

Backbox was £99, pretty expensive but awell, looks good and was made for the punto not just a universal one so fitted on very easily.

& I just used hammerite paint for the calipers, only did the front didn't want to do the drums, maybe paint them black eventually.

Yehh, when I get round to it i'll get some pics up of it, & yeh i keep meaning to take the punto badge off, just haven't got round to it yet :)..

thanks for the comments :p
 
Another thing I was wanting to know was about tinting the rear lights, to get rid of the pink'ness lol, anyone know where i could get some decent spray tint for them?
 
What you use to bung after de-wiper?

Yeh, just used a rubber grommet.. was probably one of the easiest things to do, makes it look so much better i think

Oh I thought that was pretty expensive for one cause the only other ones I could find were universal ones at about £50-60, guess it wasn't bad then :D
