i have done full audio upgrade including head unit speakers and amps
also lowering springs and omp upper and lower strut braces
along with tinted windows and 17" alloys in polished and piano black finish
also a full remap and air filter

next mods are side skirts and rear spoiler

the car is a base model diesel in yellow so now looking nice just want to upgrade rear brakes to disc
maybe start a new craze of diesel sports (y)
 
I'm planning on getting some BK matt black with polished lip alloys at some point, if they have the right fitment that is. They're 16" ones.

Other than that I want to get aftermarket suspension to lower the car and stiffen it up, and, if possible, a center exit exhaust but with the standard tailpipe on. :)
 
SPAX RSX fully adjustable coilover suspension, now goes round corners without drama
BMC panel filter

running bravo 16"s winter/track wheels, gp 17"s to go on in spring/summer
planning exhaust, remap brake upgrade and subtle bodykit - then a vinyl vehicle wrap

Vinyl wrap:( you got a new job as an estate agent Rob? Seriously, they look really naff and youll ruin your car visually.
 
Eibach lowering kit - transforms it

Re-mapped - A welcome torque boost and eradicates low speed hesitation

Punto Abarth 17's - a bit of visual presence

Some pics would be good!
 
whats a vinyl body wrap? does it help you loose weight? :eek:
lol it could suck you in and be a good hair remover when you pull it off but, the vinyl wrap is basically a huge sticker that covers over every peice of external paintwork on the car or van if you have seen one of the sky tv instalation van's with the simpsons or lions etc on the side those are wraped or most london black cab's are also wraped with advertising etc etc you can have any image/graphic even a true to life photo

So far:

- Remap, rollered 10% more power and 8% more torque.
- HK springs. Not really pleased with them, fine for handling around a track but less agreeable for the crashy road pot hole stuff
- GSR Induction
- 15" track day wheels with toyo R888 tyres to bolt on for track days

Soon:

- Quaife ATB diff
- Coilovers, still investigating Eibach, would like to have a go in something with the Spax when they're available for comparisons sake. Not impressed enough with the KW springs to consider a set of coilovers from them.
 
I'm going to have my back windows tinted and an 'A' bar fitted eventually.
I think that will finish the car off nicely.
 
I'm going to have my back windows tinted

I'm going to have the front windows tinted as the backs already have privacy glass. It's a pity that Fiat don't offer privacy glass for the fronts (albeit at 30% darkness) or as a separate item to purchase from a dealer. I haven't any idea of the quality of product/fitting offered by local tinting companies.
