Styling Grande Punto to Evo conversion??

Grande owners seem to keep dismissing the Evo & saying it a mess when really the Evo is actually a very nice car and it is an improvement on the Grande, the mistake Fiat have made is with the front & rear bumpers & the “Start Stop” system.
The Interior of the Evo in my opinion is far superior to the Grande & the front & rear lights on the Evo are pretty slick looking too, but they messed up by ditching the classic design of the Grandes bumpers and as for the “Start Stop” don’t get me started!:bang:
Anyway that’s just my opinion, although no doubt you’ll all come after me with pitch forks now! :peace:
The front looks like a 500 that's had plastic surgery gone wrong :( I like the interior though

To be honest I fully agree with you there! The Grande Punto is one of the most good looking hatchbacks ever made and by sticking these ugly bumpers on, I think has ruined it. The Lights do look good and from looking at pictures of the interior looks superior to the grande. I could'nt comment on the start and stop as I havent test drived an evo yet but all in all, I would opt for a GP over an evo any day. (y)
 
exterior wise, id say leave it as is :) the only bit i prefer on the evo are the rear lights

interior however, is a lot nicer.... if you could change the dash that would look great :D thats if it would fit and if it could be wired correctly!
 
Take it from an Evo owner - leave the exterior shell of ur GP alone. The Grande is an orignal piece of design and looks right. The Evo made it all fussy.

The advantages of the Evo are things you wont be changing...stronger body shell, engines, soundproofing, airbags everywhere...boring sensible stuff like that.

As for the lights, yeah the rears do actually look really nice. The fronts wont fit your GP without a new bumper. and if you go there you'll be re-wiring indicators and fog lights!
