Re: How to fit sideskirts to your Stilo!

Say, i noticed that the engine cover on Mike's Stilo is silver with Fiat in red, is thet standard on the Abarth or has that benn done afterwards????? I have allways thought that the Stilo looked a bit sad under the bonnet (especially after i saw an alfa wich seem to spend as much time stiling the outside as the engine bay!!!!)

It is a paintjob - looks very nice, as well. Saw Bennys at Brooklands.

You're right Stuart, it is a paint job, transforms the engine bay!

The "How to" looks great Ben, top Job. I can't reccomend this guy more for all your spraying needs (he makes a mean cup of tea too)!!!

I'll sit back and wait for the first comment on my "chav" lights, lol.

Hey ben, that's some nifty work on that engine cover Did you do it yourself??? If so i believe some of us would like a good explanation (what paint how the hell to paint those red letters without f***ing it all up...)

I must also add (and nobody get offended) that the engine bay on the Abarth looks just as sad and lacking character as the rest of the Stilo's engine bays. Would it really hurt fiat to spend a few hours on designing some nice engine and battery covers so all us idiots could show our friends our engines and stand around them and pretend we know f**k all about motors!!!

If I told you lot I'd be doing myself out of work wouldn't I?
