Grande Punto My 1.2 active grande punto (cookie monster)

Introduction

So I thought it was about time I started a members motor thread for my boy. I bought him on my 20th birthday in mid may. It came looking like the first picture. I like the way it looks now but I have a few plans both short and long term for when I have the money.

So basically e stuff already done to it:
Stainless full exhaust system
16" team dynamics white with blue strip
Scorpion badge
White stripes and side stickers
And the second pictures of after I gave it a good clean and polish
Back three tints

Things I've done:
Kept it clean ;)
Took the door bump strips off
White bulbs (not HID)

Future plans:
Hoping to lower next year when I can chose to own insurance as I'm on multicar with admiral with everyone else in the house at the moment

Head unit change (pretty far down the list)

Tinted headlights/tail lights or abarth light (undecided)

Wheels refurb in anthracite

And painting the grills black.

Any other suggestions are very welcome and I would like to hear you ideas. I will post some more pictures below that I think look good.

The last two were taken this evening, and me and my mate went for a drive and found a nice empty field. I apologise for the dirty car it's getting cleaned this week at some point.
I'm trying to think more outside the box and do something a bit different, thinking about next to my white fog caps or above them. I'm gonna go a do them in a minute so I'll just have a play and we'll see what happens lol. I'll report back with results :)

i quite like it down there as not seen many have them there so its just a bit different. i have got a thing with symmetry, which is that i hate it lol. i am looking into doing something with the side door punto stickers, i don't want to give too much away as when i say it, it does sound horrible but i think it'll look quite good in the end.

i'll hopefully have it done for mitcar so you can all see it :p (y)


p.s although it is proving very difficult finding the correct size stickers for what i want to do.???
 
UPDATE AND QUESTION

just got the ball rolling on my "anti symmetry" stickers idea, I'm hoping I can get it done before mitcar, it dawned on me earlier that's it's not too far away so I thought I'd get on with it :p

Ordered what I need so I can crack on with it when it arrives.
Also looking to get a spoiler on, where will be the best place to get one guys?

Thanks sam
 
I would be thinking: Here - although I haven't seen any posted in the items for sale though so

*Ebay
*Gumtree
*Local breakers yards

Did you have a particular spoiler in mind mate?
 
My new sticker arrived yesterday, the plan is to have the stripes down one side and replace the other side stripe with a different sticker. (anti symmetry) I want it to look different and I know some people won't approve but who cares.

Going to remove the stripe now while the panels are hot then wipe down the area for the new stickers and have an attempt at it. If i don't report back, it's gone badly and I've given up ;)

It went well..... Ish. Me being me I didn't clean the panel well enough and it's gone a bit bubbly. I am hoping they'll come out a bit when it cools down. If not I may buy another and re-do it. A good learning curve none the less.

I'll get pics up when I can. The app on my phone doesn't like uploading them

Some pics of before and after and during my update
