Grande Punto Modifying the Red Grande Punto

[jwpk]

Hi, I recently got hold of a Fiat Grande Punto 1.4 and a lot of my friends (also grande punto owners) have said that there are cheap ways of making it look better.
I was wondering if there was any recommendation for some 17inch alloys?
Also how much would a Black Vinyl Roof, Lowering of the car and blacked rear windows cost?
Cheers.

Cheap mods:

Vinyl front bumper
Black grille/debadge grille
Different coloured mirrors

Black roof: ~£80
Rear windows: ~£100
Lowering: what do you want? slammed or just 20mm or so? Do you want springs or coilovers?

Which 1.4 you got? 8v or 16v?

have a look at mine on my signature if you need any ideas

You can buy vinyl yourself for £20 on ebay to do the roof. That's what I did and it turned out good I also done my own window tints for £23. Check out my thread for pictures!
Eibach sportline lowering springs (best you can use for a GP) cost about £140.
17" alloys I recommend are the GP sporting ones, they look lovely when painted anthracite etc

lukemortlock7 I'm trying to find your thread about Vinyl and window tints, can you help?

I want to have a go a doing the roof vinyl, what size of vinyl do you buy for doing the roof as most of the ones I'm seeing on ebay seem too narrow. I would expect needing at least 1.5m width with a length of about 2m.
Also, does it need to be a specific vinyl I'm looking for?

heres a link to the thread:

pretty sure there should be something about them on there

I think I got 1.5 x 1.5m - it was just 'gloss black car vinyl', you want a good quality vinyl

jwpk tell me when you put the vinyl on as I'm thinking of doing it but not very good with that sort of thing so just wanting to know how easy it is eibach sportlines are probably the best spring you could get but don't lower it loads but probably the best without making it a speedbump dodger and keeping a decent amount of comfort
