I've been putting this off and off and off so now i've decided to post pictures of Peroni the Punto.

He's a list of what i've done already:

External
-Debadged rear 'Punto'
-Removed side strips
-Fully blacked out rear 3 windows
-Smoked front windows
-Removed Active quarter panel badges and added Abarth ones
-Changed ariel to beesting
-HID light conversion
-Painted rear drums yellow to match front Brembos

Performance
-New gearbox
-New clutch
-K&N 57i Induction kit (properly installed so not just sucking hot air as most other divvys with k&N do!)
-Mintex brake discs & pads
-Brembo front callipers in yellow
-Fox Racing 15" alloys

Pictures :)

Future Plans
-Lower about 50mm with APEX springs (yellow of course!)
-Add yellow Abarth centre caps
-Colour code side mirrors & door handles
-Smoke side repeaters and rear lights
-Fix the dent in the boot!!
-Customise fiat badges so background is yellow instead of blue
-Possibly either buy 16/17" alloys or powder coat mine in black

So what do you think??

NICE XD

nice planns aswel mate...im wondering hwo you think a K&N 57i kit should be "properly" kitted lmao the only way to fit it is the way shown by k&N on throttle with 2 cold air feeds runing from bumper

Yeah thats on the 8v engine, the 16v engine is kinda like focus kit but has a cold air feed aswell but apparently just wobbles around and rattles lol
and im presuming his car is an 8v engine so id be interested in that too
 
Aye brin that's how it is fitted but most people on here I have seen just having it sit on top of their engine block which is pointless as it can only suck in hot air! So that's what I meant :)

ok mate :) i got k&n aswel with 2 cold air feeds...little tip dont run the air feeds over rocker cover as the cover gets hot run them round the sides of it mate....K&N's are great tho love the sound of mine XD
 
yh i love my K&N aswell, and i agreed brin love the sound i think u get the best sound cos it sits on top of the throttle body :D

Agree with lad, the sound is amazing!

Yer I read about the rocker issue also. I was going to get an empty foglight panels for the front to run the two intakes off but they are bolted to below the rad now because it was easier!!
 
pics of the engine bay would be a bonus. not sure on the yellow brake drums tho. just draws unwanted attention to the fact they are drums imo. plans sound good, just dont go ott with adding all the abarth stuff. looks tacky if over done... even on abarths.
