Thanks. They are the same as each other, front one appears darker in the pics for some reason. They arent quite the same shade of red as the car but thats obviously to be expected. Still not quite sure though, i really want to put them on but i think i just need convincing. Or telling that they dont look right, lol.

Yeah it was an easy choice for me, yours look good too though. Colours like blue make it difficult as i personally dont think either look right.

Rich

can you get black ones?

i fancy some

or some black fiat ones. or either carbon fibre fiat ones!!

Yeah you can, abarthbadges.com, they do allsorts. A mate of mine is into carbon fibre, he has just done his BMW one, looks . The only way its possible though is by using the existing badge and it must split in half, if its as a whole and cant be seperated its a no go.

Cheers mate. They just have an adhesive on the back and they stick over the existing centres. They cover the whole centre, including the leaf around the edge.

I see.. I would have thought if they're stuck-ons then it might look a bit funny but from your photo is looks fine. So they're weather-resistant I suppose?

Yeah i thought the same but they look fine. They seem to cope with the bad weather ok, and recently we have had plenty of it. They were even ok with the old jet wash so i cant see them coming off any time soon, or at all for that matter.

I would suggest so, they look imo.

They are from abarthbadges.com.

If anyone wants them i have 2 spare wheel centres in black and silver (no charge) .
i didn't use them as the centre caps of my alloys are carbon fibre

They seem to only have black and red? Not sure how it would go with New Orleans Blue.. probably black if I tint the windows..?

id go for the red badges with the new orleans blue i reckon, try and photoshop a couple on there?

Red and blue..? Hmm.. :chin:

black and blue..? Hmm..

both are quite bad to be honest, see if they real abarth badges come out for the gp that have been seen on the abarth versions.

Yeah they do only have them in black and red. I have seen both black and red on New Orleans GPs on this forum, cant remember where and who's they were but i know i have seen them. Didnt actually think they looked bad to be honest. Personal preference though.

Rich

Mmm.. I doubt either red or black would go with New Orleans Blue.. might have to scrap that idea.. :chin:
