Hmmm sort off its hard to really see off the pictures,
If u lift ur bonnet ther are two rubber bung thingies either side about half way up if i remember correctly, which you can tighten up or loosen which in turn will lift or drop the bonnet becuz the bonnet sits on the bungs.
Giv it a go
it mite shut the gapHey i'm liking the look of your car, i wish i got mine in red now! i've just bought a black punto grande sporting 1.4 16v and amongst other small modifications, i want to change the exhaust - nothing too loud or in your face just a bit louder than stock so i can hear it in the car. have you modified your exhaust? if so could you give me some tips of what i should be looking for, i dont want to change the whole exhaust system, the smaller the change the better, but i want noticeable results. any ideas?

You would be probably better going to see an exhaust manufacturer. Maybe just a "backbox" would be good enough for the likes of yourself. However, be warned that the backbox and center section is one complete system so to do the backbox, you would either have to cut the exhaust at the right place or buy a new center section.

Yeah i got a powerflow back box, as on the GP 1.4 8v there isnt a centre box. but my exhaust isnt loud, it got a nice rumble. also pops a little on the overrun
i would make sure that u go for a big pipe, or a screamer pipe. the tip on my back doesnt make it loud. i would say if i was gettin a new exhuast i got for rolled 2inch tip. hope helps

Do you live just down the road from Leasowes? I think pass it on the way home from college.

Looking nice mate, I've just got my first car (Red GP), at first I didn't think I liked red but it's growing on me... Are you definitely sold on red?
Also I've been considering plastidipping my alloys to be white, so it's nice to see them on your car!

I've only had mine 5 days so I'm yet to even wax it!
I'll be using simoniz since it is on offer at Tesco
