Grande Punto Ryan's Red Grande

Nice, looks similar to my own! How did you gloss the pillars on the doors and make the passenger dash strip red?

good job with the pillars, did you do it or get it done properly? mine's full of bubbles etc

i wrapped the strip on the dash with some red vinyl and also did the pillars myself with the help of a friend but they need doing again as bit wrinkly at bottom near seal.

thought the other side of my boot was looking bare so thought id use some speakers i had laying about. Hooked them up and mounted in a piece of ply. just need to mount some leds onto the back of the 'p' and wire up to boot light. Can anyone recommend where to get some good quality LED's from ive looked on ebay but they all seem to have loads of bad feedback

thinking of changing my boot build to a false floor one so it will give me more room as the one at the moment sticks out too much and dont really like it no more. anyone got any ideas? pictures of theirs that i could use for inspiration as i want to do something different

been meaning to post it on here for a while but kept forgetting each time, and when cleaning car today it reminded me. On the dash the vent that blows to the window screen a bit has come away from the dash, its hard to describe but if anyone cant help me out on how to sort it i will post pictures tomorrow as bit dark now

I think i know what you mean mine has done it along with the electric window switches on drivers side, plastic has seemed to have warped

It's a common fault, 7th down on the list

Only thing you can do is get a new trim piece.

oh right how much is new trim and is it hard to fit or has anyone fixed the warped one?

Whip it off see if you can bend it

how do you get it off? just pull it?

Is tht dome thing in the middle screw off, i dnt kno without looking, someone will let you know soon, before i can look

been looking into getting plate holders, as got pressed plates and stuck on with sticky pads and the front is a bit dodgy, can see sticky pads. But i don't think the rear recess will fit a plate holder. do you think that it would look silly with holder on front and not rear?

Plate holder will fit in the rear recess mate, got them on mine

ah right thats good then i didnt think they would because space looks quite small might order some tomorrow then

which ones did you get?

cheers ryan

Yea its looks too small but they do fit, looks pretty smart.

Jus got plain black ones from www.dubmeister.co.uk dude.

When you have rehosted the images on the forum gallery, PM me with a link to the photos and to your thread. After that, you can edit your original post, I will sort the remainder.

Cheers

few pictures of colour coded handles and pressed plates

I did this just yesterday and they turned out great can't even tell the difference which I am very pleased with considering its a metallic colour

Might colour code the wing mirror bases also now I have seen the results


(Rubbish photo but it dose the job)



yours look very nice also, good colour match. Only thing I would say is that the layers seem to have been put on to thick which is why you are getting the pitting but some sanding back and polish can soon sort that.
Saying that looks so much better than the old horrid black plastic top job
