it might not seem it yet but alot has been changed..
it looks the same because of having the same wheels but just stick around..

First thing i did was change the grill, i picked him up my bradford, 200miles away from home lol..that night i fitted my grill..the morning after i took all the stupid dealer stickers off and the punto badge aswell..used heat and a card to peel the letters off then a toffee wheel for the adhesive!..shiniest piece on my car now lol..

and de-tangoed my headlights

the next day i de-wipered the tailgate, this took the p*ss ..the wiper was seized on!!..took 30mins of continuous wriggling to pop it off..next drilled out the rivets and took the motor out and plugged it up!...love the look. no big plastic wiper. smoother

next i decided to do something about the front headlights so got in contact with lamin-x and they sent out a sample for me.. i decided to not waste it and tinted my rear badge with it.

Subcribe maybe? or stay intouch..much more to come at this point :)
any comments welcome! ..
I do like that Loocas, looks good but twists have been done, Jamie and now grande-will has a set.. Maybe.. Carrera s alloys?. Something different mate as PuntoBooth said.
Sorry Loocas I think you should look for something else now :/
 
Im still keen on them, just because somebody else has done it doesnt mean you cant, if it was a golf for example then theres no chance of finding some wheels that havnt already been done, but anyhow, what wheels you thinking of next then?
 
I just love JDM wheels now lol.. And I know it will be my next set :p ( after these winter rotas ) .. I like rota advan xxr
And your right mate, of course you can still get a set, tbh I don't know why I said that because I would still have a set anyway, I would just make sure I would her them returbed in a unique colour! :)
 
I think if you're gonna do something Euro regarding the alloys, do something that isnt obvious. Search for something that's never been put on (like Maybach alloys LOL imagine). But you get what i mean...

My mate has Maybach alloys on his A3 they look weird yet awesome all at the same time!
 
You gonna be having red wheels or is that the name? Would look mint imo

that's the colour and the make :) Porsche twists returbed in Porsche red.. Orrr rota boosts 7.5j up front and 9j rear with 5x100 rear adapters :p ... But for now it is the winter and tbf I only ran my RH's for three weeks lol.. Which there getting refurbed with red centres soon.. Also im picking up my rota's tomorrow!..
I will upload some pictures later on of my modified abarth exhaust, how low it looks now with the adjusters out and new stickers! :)
 
lol no not yet :p picking them up tomorrow from Norwich!!.. And there only going to be a set of winter shoes. And yeah U can have first dibs at a reduced price lol

norwich thats not too bad, have fun on the roads one of my mates rolled his ibiza on ice this morning, sketchyyy! haha sounds like a good deal, would be nice to see what nick theyre in (y)
