Bravo My maseratti blue 150 Tjet sport

Introduction

Hi folks, well after owning this car for a few months now and after a handful of mods I finally got round to taking a few pics, loving the car so far even with her few current problems, drivers side central locking unit buzzing when closing, sky roof stiff and air noise at 70 - 80 mph (drive slower??, nah!) and handbrake not holding even after adjustment, nothing too major I guess.


Mods done so far -


BMC replacement filter
Stainless cat back performance exhaust
Custom remap


What's been done so far has made a huge improvement on what was an already 'nippy' car, I'm over the moon with it :)


Future mods I'm looking at are brake upgrade inc hoses,double din stereo, hid lights, tailored mats and maybe a dump valve.


Please feel free to ask any questions or offer any help or advice on upgrades or the current issues I have.


Happy Motoring

It's hard to explain. I'll get some photos of mine to show how I did it when the missus returns from work. But you have to use the rubbers of the doors to help you out it. And place the clips in certain spaces.

The other thing is the clips have a like a cut on the one side. This has to be placed in so that it faces away from the deflector. It helps grip the inside of the window. It's very possible to get them to work but it's definitely been the hardest ones for me to fit. I had them in my Grande Punto and Renault Megane with relative ease. Bravo windows are definitely tougher,

this was a picture I've used before the purple bits are where to put the clips. Ignore the ones in the B Pillar. They're not needed and just fall out over time


The biggest issue is the rubber that runs down the B pillar it pushes the edge of the deflector in causing it to catch. So you have to slit the rubber slightly. Like I said I'll get a picture and video to show you.
 
Pics would be great pal, cheers, to me the clips didn't seem to fit, I guess you have to really force them up in the seal?

Fit the deflectors, raise the window up a bit but dont close it, rest the clips on the edge of the glass ( one on top, one on slanted part) with groove facing into car then close window, crack open beer...

I wished it was that easy lmao. I've fitted a fair few reflectors in my time. Including on a Polo, Grande Punto, Renault Megane and Ford Focus. None of them had the same issues the Bravo does. Like I said the B Pillar rubbers push it in even with clips so it's not quite that easy



In regards to the pictures/video I'll have to get it tomorrow. I got called into work early so I'm not able to get it done today
