I keep seeing a red 100hp locally which got me thinking, has anyone put 100hp side trims, wheel arch and side skirts on a standard model?

Not bothered about front and rear bumper just yet :rolleyes:

I've looked on the eper here and 100hp not present so no parts #'s to google for prices.:(

Probably stupidly expensive but thought I'd ask :)
 
I keep seeing 100hp body trims (body kit) on ebay and not too expensive £10-£25 each. And yes it does go on. On italian forum there is a thread of a basic panda being turned into 100hp and more since he stuck abarth engine in too last time I checked that thread. Not sure how easy he modded hes panda to look like 100hp but I suspect u might have to make holes along the edges of the panels as 100hp trim comes with plastic push clips.

here is his thread, have a look through pictures, might give u an idea of what he did. Hope this helps

You are correct. I had to replace a front wheel arch trim piece on my 100HP and it comes with 3 green clips that go into holes in the wheel arch.

Wish I could have found one of those eBay listings. Got charged £40 by fiat Stealer for replacement. (n)

Before you bother looking for the trims have you informed your insurance company. It may work out cheaper to buy a 100hp than faking one. RLD,Bad "stealer"for not giving you the piece of body work, I thought it was fiat who set the parts prices.
 
The 100 hp have a lot of hole in the wheels arches for mounting the trim.
Not certain it would be wise to drill those hole your self.
I have looked into it to turn my 1.2 into a 100 hp look a like but the needed holes put me off doing it.

A 100 hp rearspoiler/window change cost almost 1000,- Euro. :rolleyes:
 
So if u get front and rear bumper...

Good luck to whoever with finding a front bumper!
I have been trying for ages and no luck.
I asked the fiat dealer for a price on one when i picked up the arch trim.
£378+vat for bumper
£150+vat approx to paint & fit

:eek:

looking into plastic welding now as its only a fascia cladding really.
 
Thanks for the replies folks (y)

Not sure I want to drill holes :eek: I was hoping they would be stick on trim :(

Probably would be be easier just to get a 100hp (or a 4x4!) if the price were right.

That trim for sale is right hand side only so it may look a bit odd.... ;)
 
Had a 100HP test drive, forgot to engage sport button and kerbed an alloy too :doh:

They offered me 1500 less than I paid for the car in November. :eek:

I thought the we buy your car peoples were taking the mick with what they offered me this morning - they are only £200 out.

100HP dreams will remain just that.

Will try and forget if I'd have held only to 500 it could have been a different story :(
Rawb - swap you both cars in my sig for your 100HP :p

I would love to drive around in a classic Panda for a little while, but cash is the only option as I've had a replacement on hold for as long as I can remember :eek:

You could always put the Panda up privately or on a quick auction and reserve it for the price needed?

I always trade in my cars to dealers, never sold one privately or on ebay so wouldn't know where to start. :confused:

Trade price on my car from the guides isn't going to get me anywhere near your 100HP :(
 
I'm not a fan of selling privately, you get always a run of joy riders along.
They do a test drive for fun and have no interest buying the car.


TBH it depends on the car. I can't see you would get many joy riders for a standard Fiat Panda. If they have got insurance to take it for a test drive (whilst you sit in the passenger seat) they must be a little serious about buying it. Besides selling private you are more likely to get more money and at the end of the day it's up to you if you let them take it for a drive.
