Re: Out with the old, in with the new (my punto mk2a progress thread)

hmmm could do but a mate of mine got himself some black vinyl for his roof of his corser, but its started bubbling, which is probs him not keeping the roof clean and dust free when he put it on. but that kinda put me off doing it myself. i will see anyway lol

It can be done

they look amazing and thats what im looking to do. but with the sunroof il just limo dark tint that myself as practice before the roof vinyl itself. all i know is that it has to constantly be wet and clean lol and it should be easy to do

Aerial comes straight out, the nuts hiding behind your interior light you could never cut round it lol.

Oh just noticed the aerial isnt on in them pics it did go back on just pinched a small hole and popped it back through.

arials easy to do. just a nut from inside the car. think sunroof will be a bitch to get round tho. wondering if id be better having it open when im sticking it on so i can get a rough guide where to trim. then close when im neat cutting it.

I would stick it on with it shut and just cut round it.

Noticed you got 20mm spacers did you buy longer wheel bolts aswell?

Im really tempted to buy one and try and fit it myself
Any idea where he got it from?
