Hi
Just wondering if anyone knows where i can get hold of the wire mesh thats situated in the middle of the punto abarths rear bumper. Just noticed that mine is missing yesterday. Any suggestions anyone?:confused:
Thanks
 
they're very hard to find so thieves like to nick them, i bet thats what happened to yours.

i'm not sur eif a fiat dealer woudl be able to supply the mesh seperately, but i would ask. failing that you need to keep your eyes open for someone breaking a punto with abarth bumpers, or find one in a scrapyard. i once found a punto with abarth bumpers at a scrapyard, weeks later it was still there, in hindsight i wish i bought the bumpers and skirts to sell on ebay, they only wanted £100 for the lot.

I too saw them and didn't bother as the front bumper wasn't a direct fit :(
 
thanks for that, will keep an eye out a the local scrappy.(y) only had the car for about 1.5 months as well!!!!!
 
the car is an original HGT Abarth in black with the full factory fitted kit. Might pop down to the spare part shop and see what i find. Worst comes to the worst will have to buy the mesh, cut to size and maybe spray it to the original colour.
 
local motorfactor wil sell a variety of mesh, but it wont be cheap. local garden centre wil also sell a variety of mech, much cheaper. local building supply yard will have all sorts of mesh for a few pence. or you can go to halfords and pay £20 for a tiny slice of mesh.

i dnt have a local motor factor plus i dont do shopping in shops(y)
 
i bet you do have a local motorfactor, at least 10 of them within 10 miles coz you're in south london. what is your postcode?

some things you can buy online, some thing you need to see and touch first, mesh is the latter, buy online and you dont know what you're buying until it is delivered. plus you'll pay more online due to delivery.
