Well its been a nice day here and the stilo has been feeling a bit left out seen as the sun come out i been riding my bike ...so anyway i treat him to a wash, wax and abit of glossing to day! Now all i need to do is go get me some fish and chips im knackered after all the manual labour lol











Next job soon is getting the alloys sprayed shadow chrome.. and maybe get some rear windows tinted and lights tinted in a light smoke, not sure though!

Looking good :slayer:

I should really give mine some TLC, maybe next month

Minted! :worship:

Mmmmmm stunning stilo you got there dude

Looking good fella, your brakes are standard arent they? the front calipers look bigger than i remember

im liking the colour!! tinting would look good i reckon!

Looking really good, and I've been tempted to do similar with the front grille + Abarth badge myself to hopefully make people get out of the way quicker!

Never been sure about plonking Abarth badges on a non-Abarth (I think the slow car gives people the wrong impression - thinking it's real) but I know that's a personal preference thing. Apart from that very nice

Love it, what did you do to get it that shiny and what cleaning agents you use, details please.

It really does look stunning mate :yum:

I also noticed the Abarth badge on the grille... it's the little details that make the car

RE the Abarth badge: Is it just a stick on one or is it bolted on?

Yeah there standard atm, although that is one of things im looking at doing soon, before my hunt for more bhp! I would really like some brembo's, but not to sure about using the spacers, etc.. So i think ill just go for ebc disc and red stuff pads.

Its not that slow, ive had her tuned upto 155.9hp atm... and the plans for the next stages are re-profiled cams, manifold, sports cat and a new specially made exhaust system.. Which u'll boost her over 170hp mark! Also in the pipelines is ported and flowed head aswell as multi angle cut valves and lightened crank and flywheel. But it all takes time and preparation and mulla

I use turtle wax products, always had good results with them and i would highley recommend the gloss gaurd as it seals in the polish/waxing. In this stage:

1st Turtle wax - wash and wax

2nd Turtle wax - polish wax

3rd Turtle wax - gloss guard

The badge is stuck on using sicaflex, which is used to bond sideskirts to your car, etc...
