looks nice, but would look better with a new numberplate

Good point, will be getting new number plates made up soon and will be sticking them on instead of screwing them on.

Looking good , cant wait to see it with full abarth kit .. :yum in my opinon side stripes off )
I have the rear abarth bumper ( bought because it was a bargain 80£ postage included but havent fitted yet ) and the side skirts which is all you need..
Anyway keep the good work ..

I like it, done up but not O.T.T, colour suits the kit very well, looks good.
Ide take them black bumpers off if you can, i read some place that they just peel off??? not sure, dont take my word for it though.

looks good, but is in desperate need of those side skirts!!!

i love the car, ur calipers and drums need to be painted tho, that will set it off

been over a year since the last update. What happened to this car? Looks really good

i know its been like 2 years since he has updated but is there any update do u still have the car

Thought I'd post an update as it's been a while! I still have the car but it failed it's MOT as it had some suspension problems.

It needed new suspension arms, front dampers and top mounts. Getting the top mounts and suspension arms wasn't a problem, but the front dampers were a bit of a nightmare! As I have FK Coilovers I had to get the damper replacements from FK in Germany. I ordered them and they took over 3 weeks to come.

They finally came though and fitted them today. Fitting them was all straight forward, but one of the dampers was bent and had a hole in it. Also my top mounts fell apart when taken off.

Whilst the car was apart I thought it would be a good idea to fit my Red Dot 20 groove brake discs and pads that I bought a couple of years ago but never got round to fitting.

Steering and ride has improved so much now that I've got these new bits on. Tomorrow morning I'm off to Protyre to get my suspension geometry set back up and 2 new tyres for the front. Then it's MOT time, wish me luck!! :slayer:

Best colour for a Punto!

I haz same colour. Abet a lot smaller engine and without the nice upgrades this has!

None the less, I shall join my 804 brothers and post some pictures once the wagon is looking how I want her
