whats the style/theme/inspiration you use/go for with your car?

do you aim for :

-motorsport/racing
-bodykits/installs
-simple/subtle
-standard as it came from factory
-mixture of a few/all of

personally i will say it revolves around personallity more than how much dosh you have.

i personally look towards the motorsport vibes. stripped caged ect liek sedici-rich and dunc uno turbo. (but at the mo i have none of the motorsport theme as theyre all plans )



p.s bored so though would be a good discusion point?

edit was going to add a poll. but i missed it

i like big stereo install, lots of interior mods- bucket seats, harness's, steering wheel, gear knob, colour coding, the lot really, subtle exterior, lowered as far as it goes, big alloys, tinting, colour coded, exhaust, then major engine mods.

thats how i want my car

Added the poll options.

thanks stu

beaus going maxpower then bit of everything....

Depends on the car but maily I would say the sleeper look so nice and subtle with a "few tweaks" to the performance

I prefer the standard look, but with subtle things that enhance the car without being overdone.

The term some people use is 'OEM+'

no lol, thats major outside and thats it normally lol, it has to be subtle on the outside, ruins the look other wise

ok adding on to mine, this is how i want mine to look, but yellow im in love :yum:

OK EDIT- i forgot my more recent plans well basicly same as hendy's exterior but with gt3 alloys,






ok im done on this thread now, lol

im going OEM+ too

and at the mo, its modified with all fiat parts too

nice seat pete

I say a mixture tbh. I like the interior to be really nice.. full retrims etc, really kitted out etc. I love full installs etc.

Exterior, it really depends on the car. Although I do love the big wheels and really low kit look, but only on certain cars.. simple and smooth is always good I just like it to look like it could almost be standard, eg. really well done, no stupid bolt on bits, just nice and smoooooth..

hmmmm you basicly described what i like

Simple and subtle on the exterior, plush on the interior (not big boot installs though).

Some big kits, wheels and zorsts do look good, but only if they have been done nice and flush.

I like the BTCC look end of story the trouble is though our roads arnt good for the health of low cars

have to admitt beau abarth kit is the best thing for the mk1. i intend to have the abarth goodies (probably not the rear, not too keen on it for some reason) and strip inside,cage, then mess with the engine

phill, youre right btcc look rules but, all the livery/decals wouldnt look right driving round the streets

neither am i, but its better than most bumpers on the market theres someone on psc with abarth sides n front, and beast rear, must say i do prefer it

Dont like FORDS cos they did this to my pride and joy,, Gonna miss out on the show now next weekend...... 2 weeks hard work ruined by a 84yr blind b**t*rd in an instant..

They would know your coming though charlie and get right out the fecking way Mwhahahaha

It completely depends on the car that is being done up, I'm a fan of motorsport stylee cars but I like others too. As a generalisation, our humble fiats i think are best off subtle, close to standard with some wheels and a few tweeks, i mean the italian design flare is already there, just needs changing a bit to stand out from the rest of the fiats if you get me.

Whats that gotta do with this thread exactly

I like the yellow one I like Kits but subtle, not into the whole OTT. I still want my car to look like a punto, hence why i have one. Like adding ELX ontop of ELX i guess
