Hi im Andy and I have a 1.9 D Fiat Doblo, which is used for my self employed work / family and im just starting to improve the looks of it.
I have just bought some 15 inch Fiat Stilo wheels to fit to the Doblo, which im picking up Sunday. Also im also going to be buying some direct fit blinds for it too, considered tinting but the blinds look just as good and can be removed if needed.
Aswell as the above i've ordered some silver indicator bulbs for the rear lights. Future improvements will include chrome roof bars and A bar on the front, but hopefully these maybe xmas purchases, for me by other people, haha :) I may retrim the headlining and plastic A pillar and cover the metal part of the B and C pillars in faux suede. I've already replaced the stereo and front dash and door speakers with uprated Sony stuff.
Overall happy with it so far had it just over 2 weeks and think its quite a decent looking van/mpv and with a few enhancements will look the part.
 
Yes please post some pics, i have added a stainless steel fuel cap cover,wind deflectors and a fancy aerial to mine. Speakers should be changed also,any recommendations?

There are more tips here for ideas from fellow dobio owners;

Wheels I need to source as the 14" just dont look right IMO. I got the custom blinds from ebay £50 & they look the business & work great. Kenwood headunit was another essential change.

My doblo suffered from sill paint chips with some rust starting & chips at the lower corners of the sliding door. For future protection I removed the rust then gave it a coat of zinc paint followed by 4 coats of stonechip paint. To blend in the contrast I have got a pinstrip which I'll get the wife to fit as i'm crap at fitting these things:eek:

Really would like to fit/rig up a flat screen for the kids to watch mounted in drop down fashion on the roof possibly built into the front overhead shelf.
