Hi all just thought id start a thread about my orange 1.4 sporting. Iv had it about a week and a half and the longer i own it the more i love it, often finding myself staring at it.
So here it is

I have allready put wind deflectors on.
Here is a my car with my old alloys on which are 17" but they smaller.

Undecided yet as wether i like them, deffinatly like the black so may get the originals done in gloss black.
I have a few other small plans for the car so far, so stay tuned. And i appreciate any comments or feedback.
If this works as i cant remember how to add images
 
You like the black alloys? I prefer the ones that came with it IMO :) looks a tidier with them.
I remember when I first got mine too, stood there staring at it with a cup of tea and a smoke.

Regards,
Johnathon.
 
Yeah i prefer black alloys on most cars actually. I think its because there's no other silver on the car so the black matches the plastic. Thats my logic any way.
 
All in good time. Although there are a lot of speed bumps my was and allready scrape slightly so not sure about lowering any more.
 
Yeah, this is true however i have to go over about 18 lots of speed bumps in the space of half a mile and there is no other way to my house. Lowering my old car was the best thing i did and the arch gap is massive on the punto. I'll just have to wait and see what happens. In the mean time trying to update the blue and me software is driving me mad. I just want to be able to play my own music.
 
Also Jacob you have a very nice car and I'm pretty sure mine is going to look very similar in the end.
 
So it's been a while since i was last posted on here.
I got my original alloys painted black, puma black to be precise. Its a glittery gloss black. And they really gleam on a sunny day and when their clean.

Also got my badgeless grill fitted and my black mirrors on order

In my last post i said i ordered black wing mirror covers, i did they were just no either a cheap copy and didnt fit properly or not for my car, so thats on hold now.
I have finally got around to doing the vinyl on the door pillars.
So this was before,

During,

Great tan lines.
And after,

As you can see 1st attempt wasnt great. The other side worked out fine and I'm really happy with it. I ran out of vinyl to redo the 1st side, so looks like a job for next weekend now. Although i have seen this done in a carbon fibre wrap and considering ive got to do it again im tempted with that.

Tell me,which Head unit is that??
It looks perfect in there
Did it work straight away with the cambus?
does it still allow you to use steering week controls?
Is it Bluetooth enabled?
and how much was it?
 
I did the vinyl on my door pillars too
I used the carbon foil and looks great on my red sporting,even though on this side I stretched the foil a little at the bottom by the rubber. Other side worked out perfect ImageUploadedByFIAT Forum1430211399.147483.jpg
 
?

Looks good,better start saving
I've switched the front door speakers and tweeters already but playing music from my iPhone doesn't have the quality I'm looking for
Also have to sound proof inside the doors as they are pretty hefty speakers I put in?
 
Finally got my black wing mirror covers

Finally

There unpainted at the minute but you get the idea of how they will look when I paint them gloss black.
