Grande Punto My Orange T-Jet :)

Gr3g · Aug 12, 2012

Cant decide whether to paint the lettering on the "t-jet" grille badge orange or not. It will either look really smart or really toss lol. Thoughts?

Hinksy · Aug 12, 2012

cant help you with the answer but ive been thinking about it the past week too and have the same thought as you! will either look awesome or tacky and just cant bring myself to decide haha.

Gr3g · Aug 12, 2012

Haha think im just gonna do it n then just buy a new one if i hate it. Will let u know how it turns out dude!

Gr3g · Aug 21, 2012

Looking forward to seeing how the engine cover turns out. Don't see many TJet covers done, if any

With mine being grey I'm unsure what colour I'd do mine

Decided to repaint my engine cover, just went for a nice clean gloss black with orange lettering

ianal09 · Sep 7, 2012

looking good man! how did you do the orange lettering? did you spray it?

Gr3g · Sep 8, 2012

Cheers dude. Just used my orange touch up brush, like a nail varnish brush lol.

Gr3g · Sep 13, 2012

Well after a few months thinking about it im starting to get bits together to go on a bit of a retrimming crusade. If all goes to plan ill be doing the a, b and c pillars and headlining in black material and then the door cards and dash in faux leather.

Never really attempted this before so no doubt itll be a bit of a learning curve..... Or just a total bugger hah.

Gr3g · Sep 16, 2012

Just ordered 5 metres of black suede

!

Anyone know the best way to go about removing the a, b and c pillars, i know its generally just a case of gently pull but just wondering how anyone else has done it?

tempz · Sep 16, 2012

There's a bloke in Cheshire I think that I think we are all using to retrim the roof lining etc ask @reu

Nice T-Jet! how are you liking the Forge Induction Kit? Does it sound good?

Gr3g · Sep 17, 2012

Thanks

Yea i personally like it mate, makes a nice subtle noise n helped my engine breathe a bit better! Need to get a new exhaust soon to free up a few more horses haha.

Gr3g · Sep 20, 2012

Well, after 2 days work ive got my a,b and c pillars and headlining all retrimmed in black suede. Looks sweet, seen as ive never done anything like that before im well chuffed with myself! Jus gotta get it all back in the car now lol. Will get some pics up over the weekend.
