Got my new car about 6 weeks ago, looking for some cheap modifications, any ideas?

Previous owners painted the centre console and that orange, was gonna get rid but kinda thinking of keeping it now (just the centre console and lower part, NOT the vents) or too tacky?

Thinking an abarth scorpion on the side, different colour mirror covers and maybe tinted rear lights?

Defo keep the orange looks well with the seats. Tinting rear lights is always good on any punto I think!! Not keen on the alloys though.. But looks like a tidy car all round best of luck with it ;)

I actually like that orange, if it was a bit darker it would look even better

I too think the orange works well -- and would keep all of it. If they’re not already painted -- and you can match the existing stuff, of course... -- I'd be tempted to do the surrounds of the circular air vents, too [just noticed that these are already done...]; as well as those round the door lock pop-ups (and anything else that takes your fancy...)! :)

It's a good-looking car, and I think -- personally -- an Abarth scorpion on the paintwork would be detrimental (it is your choice, though...). The subtle badging on the bonnet grille and tailgate is enough.... However, I do like the alloys! (y)

If it were mine, I would keep the mirrors matched to the body; replace the repeaters with smoked ones; put the original aerial back on; add some wind deflectors; and think about tinting the rear lights (possibly) -- but not the reflectors, of course...! -- and maybe add a darker tint to the rear windows.... :cool:

Thanks guys... Yeah the small air vents were orange before, found original silver ones on eBay though and sold off the orange ones before I thought of keeping the orange!!

And I know what you mean about the scorpion on the outside, starting to think a plain look would be better, might de badge the back of it and get a badgeless grill for the front, although I can't find them anywhere online! Anyone seen any?
 
Also need a new drivers side door as it's dented from a previous owner, not TOO bad, just annoying to look at. And the n/s wing is a different colour, if you look at the pic you can see... More of a blue colour. Another expensive annoyance!
