A mk2 3 door that is

just playing.
The vinyl will make an extreme difference. makes the windows look all one unit and mkes the roof appear lower. I spraayed mine though, but I doubt you would want to do the same

Puntodriver1991 · Aug 16, 2009

Haha.

Could be an option, but harder on 5 door isnt it

cos of the door opening from behind the B pillar

I dnt know lol.

Remove the door. Not only will you look cooler, you got air conditioning

Puntodriver1991 · Aug 16, 2009

Haha!

how you finding driving?

sdb-punto · Aug 16, 2009

Looking a lot better, i have warmed to those alloys, i would love a pair so i could spray them black

As Dan said, paint mirrors and remove bumpstrips, then put black vinyl on the door pillars, wont be hard, dont paint it though. Then CC bumpers

Lol stop bickering you two!

Yeah there a really good finish, as good as the paintwork on the car already! I had an attempt at colour coding my mirrors but it didnt work, colour match was horrid, as was the finish, so i gave up and let the professionals do it! Cool place they had a porsche 911 shell being prepped and painted in the oven when i went in, then when i went and picked up my parts it was outside finished and looked quality

EDIT: the alloys will look great in black, did you see the picture of the punto in my thread on page 2 (bottom) with those alloys in black?

Puntodriver1991 · Aug 16, 2009

Ye i did see them, on thatguys car who said your car reminds him of his car.

They looked pretty decent.

Puntodriver1991 · Aug 19, 2009

Well had a bit of paint primer laquer etc.. left over from the door handles

so done my washer jets

Taped up and covered up whole top half bonnet and soem of windscreen

then went through the same process as with the handles again.
Some pics...

karbineftw · Aug 19, 2009

LOL why did you just remove them?

Puntodriver1991 · Aug 19, 2009

I was going too take them off, but i left it in the hands of my dad, who taped all around it , and covered it, so thought that'll do lol

Didnt turn out to bad

Puntodriver1991 · Aug 23, 2009

Well was going to keep going on the small mods and stuff, but had to fork out for new front pads and disks

and new battery

So like £180 of my car budget has been eaten up.

Puntodriver1991 · Sep 18, 2009

In the middle of the process of spraying the circle that surrounds the air vents, and also the bit behind the handbrake in a lovely silver to match the grigio steel on the outside:slayer:

pics to follow...

Puntodriver1991 · Sep 19, 2009

CBA to mod this car anymore. Getting a Renault Megane next year, so got plans for that rather than this.
