Punto (Mk2/2b) My white mk2b (jaapje1988)

Introduction

My white mk2b 1.2 16v

Hi!
May 2020 i bought my first car, a Fiat Punto (188) mk2b 1.2 16v. (With 236k km) It had fake abarth badges and red sidemirrors. I removed all that crap and i think it turned out beautiful. (It now has 241k km)

New 5 spoke 16inch rims are next, after that sporting side skirts and also looking for a debadged grill, but it seems they arent sold any more, anywhere. So that's gonna be a pain in the butt.

First picture is as it was when i bought it, the second picture is recent ??
I will post in the comments what i changed and rellaced on this Punto, And i will post more pictures in the comments from in between these 2 pictures in this post
This is what I changed so far:
New mirrors
Radio with bluetooth
Removed the fake abarth emblems
Replaced the failty ripped stock subwoofer for a decent and working original one
The bumper grill on the drivers side was missing so added one (they are hard to find haha)
Plastidipped my rims in matte black and added new tires
New black headlights
New speakers in the front door and removed the speakers in the back
Made the silver midconsole black
Replaced the lock mechanic on the drivers side
Replaced the radio antenna
Cleaned the throttle body
Replaced the timing belt and waterpump
Replaced the door stopper om the driverside
Replaced the crankcase breather hose
Replaced the spark plugs, spark plug cables and ignition coil
Replaced bith shockabsorbers on the backside
Placed blue LED lights by the feet at the drivers and passenger seat (powered by the cigarette lighter, but connected behind it behind the dashboard so I can still use it for charging my phone and turns on and of with the key)
Placed a strutbar
Replaced the standard airfilter for an open airfilter
Replaced the end muffler for a sebring sport one
Replaced all fluids
Placed mud tubs at the rear wheels (this model didnt come with mud tubs, but the 5 doors version fit perfectly)
Replaced the horn for a louder one
Replaced the battery
Replaced the side blinkers and made them black
Replaced the spring on the strut on the driversside
Painted the part behind the licence plate black with matte plastidip
Placed a subtle lip on the front bumper
Replaced the drive shaft covers
Placed an under engine cover (i do not know if that is the correct name)

I know it’s probably wrong but I kinda liked the red mirrors lol, I’m sure that was probably following a Fiat 500 Amarth colour scheme if they had put abarth badges on in.

Not too many mk2b or mk2 puntos about in the uk now, but I know they still sell for fairly good money in Europe, good to see you are looking after it,you should try and get some side skirts from a HGT

I like the sporting skirts more, they fit nicely with my bumpers ?
 
What aerial are you using? I need a replacement. Mine is all bent.

Also, what is this "under engine cover"? Can we see that?

The aerial is from ali express, works fine
And the under engine cover is a plastic thing you put under the engine, see image ?
