Introduction
Alright all... Got a 0.9 Cinq SX a few weeks ago, thought I'd join incase I ever needs parts or advice, or if there's anything going on in the local area that I wouldn't have known about otherwise.
So far I've put Seicento sporting alloys on her and painted them matt black, painted the bumper and door strips red and put a bit of smartie wrap here and there.
It needs to have a few little dings pulled out ideally have the boot resprayed after a bad job by the previous owner after it was debadged. I intend to get a Cinq or Seic sporting/abarth spoiler and possibly drop her 40-60mm...
Bit confused with this whole lowering business, folks talk of it reducing the life of the shocks if lowering springs are fitted, but the underneath is solid and the car has only done 26,000 miles so they can't have been subject to a great deal of abuse and should be alright for a bit, surely? I'd usually make sure it was a proper job but with being a student, funds aren't that great!
Need to sort the tyres out too, got skinny high profile standard tyres on the back, then sporting ones on the front!
Only got one decent photo, I'll add more once I've cleaned it, and there's one of how it was when I got it
PS sorry for the essay! Cheers, Danny
