Cinquecento my little blue sx

Introduction

hi, not done too many mods to this little gem but im so in love with my first car i want to share it :)
i have....
tinted front and rear lights with a fly-eye kit,
de-badged the back,
replaced side indicators with smoked LED units,
sprayed part of dash with the same colour as the body,
bought a set of sporting clocks off ebay for £13 (inc postage!(y) )
installed a bluetooth stereo and made a speaker box wrapped in carbon vinyl with NOS badge,
some cheap seat covers,
and finally bought some new ish 165/60/r13 wider tyres off ebay

i am very happy with this little beast, but would love some lower supspension, side skirts and hopefully a spoiler, also after a good sonding exhaust if anyones got one.

thanks for looking, and any suggestions are more than welcome :)
I had a Cherry Bomb on my cinquecento


Its really loud but not at all tinny like some after market exhausts(y)
I was thinking about getting one for the panda.... but i have to take my dad out and he nags enough already :p

:Edit

Cheap too!

yeah i looked at your cinq when i was seeing if any cinqs/seis had cherrybombs
 

we both have the same cherrybomb but with the round exit not the slash cut oval exit, if i recall correctly they do 2 inlet sizes, the 38mm? is the smallest and is universal etc and is the size you will want - although it doesnt matter too much as will need work to fit. I purchased mine from a company called 'custom chrome racing' and they send you a cherrybomb exhaust hanger too lol and im pretty sure are like the 'official' sellers of it or something.
but if its just a loud exhaust your after you could probably just get any universal exhaust..

yeah thats it, well it says in the ebay listing what the postage costs are lol umm i have heard theyre arent mega legal etc think its mainly to do with DB sound readings and emissions etc, well i actually had mine fitted few onth after my mot - but its no louder than any other saxo corsa etc with a jap can on.
 
looks good, i really like the black badge how did you do that?

just get some fiat wheel trims, or alloys just anything with the fiat badge on :p
 
i had some spare black vinyl. i cut it into longish strips just wider than the spaces between the chrome diagonal lines. then stuck it down and trimmed up to the chrome carefully with a scalpel. obviously taking the badge off and tucking excess vinyl behind it. simple ish job that i cant understand why everyone hasn't done it lol, was thinking about a new-style badge but they just look far to tacky
 
haven't updated this thread in a while but done a little to my fast fiat ;) i started with vinyl wrapping my B pillars in black then managed to get some siecento sporting alloys off a fellow member which were badly curbed. i spent 2 1/2 hours on each wheel rubbing them down then sprayed them anthracite (spelling). they look awesome and i also found a front bottom bumper trim off a fiesta in my local supermarket carpark so chopped it a bit and screwed it on (y) makes the front look marginally lower. brand new second hand black door cars and a black leather sporting steering wheel. also fitted a anti-roll bar to the front which even with the standard SX suspension makes a massive difference. its nowhere near as wallowey and is proberly just like a normal car lol, inspires some inthusiastic driving thats for sure (y) .
all in all its a fantastic little car and im still in love :) it also gets a lot of complements whereever i go from old people to the boy racer wannabees at mc donalds.

looks good mate, needs lowering though. i've got a set of standard sporting springs if your interested
 
would love some standard springs off a sporting because then i wouldnt have to tell the insurance companies and i am assuming it will handle slightly better than my SX springs and antiroll bar? only problem is im skint and will be forever lol!! ahh the joys of being a 17 year old lad driving a racey italian car :) haha
 
oh and my fly eye kit ive just done on my mums soliel and i ordered black size 45cmx100cm. was only £11 including shipping and that was enough to do all the indicators and front and rear lights :) i would definatly get some brighter than average bulbs though to compensate for the lack of visibility :)
 
Well i had the pleasure of meeting Cinq mad lad tonight, super guy, the love of Cinqs is all to obvious !!

Loving the look of yours, what a great car for a 17 Year old...... nice colour too ( a real compliment coming from a sprayer !! ).

Good luck............
 
Another nice guy !
After all anyone whos that bonkers about a Cinq, deserves to be praised.....

Now lets see some pics of the other cinqs !!
