Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

Looking amazing, just wondering what was involved to get the leather interior into your punto,was it just a straight swap or waht?

As im looking to put an alfa interior into my mk1 punto

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

its a right hassle.

i still havn't got mine in - i've got the fronts in though, they bolted straight in.

im not too sure they'll fit mk1 puntos but i may be wrong.

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

also atticus - how much is that paint per litre?

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

So the fronts just bolt right in, but rears are alot harder to get in?

Yes
For the 100th time

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

yes the rears are right bastards!
Hardly worth the hassle!

youd be better off getting your standard rears trimmed!

As for the paint its going to be a custom mix so its going to be rather pricey!

Hey

One question, you just filled holes with poly or did u make the rear bumper longer?

And nice car

 

[Atticus!]

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

The grill's on the rear bumper were plastic welded up, then fibreglassed and finally skimmed with filler.

And all im saying about the rear seats is that they are c*nts to fit.

Im the only person to have ever spent enough time to get them in.

And from the experience and hassle i would have rather just had my standard rear bench trimmed.

i cant stop anyone just my personal opinion having actually done it.

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

I think your car is awesome

personally i would say the seats are worth the hassle but then i cant say iv done it so i wouldnt know

wonder how much it would cost to get my seats retrimmed :chin:

anyway iv allways loved the look of your car specially them wheels

good job

 

[Atticus!]

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

Cheers dude (Y)

For a full re-trim your looking at £1500 for a half decent job inc door cards!

My door cards alone cost £300+

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

**** thatt

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

Did you find out the paint code that ray rang me about? lol

 

[Atticus!]

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!

Nahr couldnt get hold of it which is no suprise lol

Lad off cleaned-uk suggested i have a look at copper grease for a colour and i actually really like it!

Maybe a tad darker tho as its very much like martins, hence why i was after his paint code!

 

[punto_matt]

Re: Atticus's Mk2b Punto conversion!
