[1.8Stilo]

[Morty]

Possibly one of the nicest Mk II i've seen. ll get some pictures of mine up soon, Full Abarth Body kit, All white, Custom Black lights and fully de-badged with 17inch Multi-spoke rims.

Inside your's is AMAZING. Where you get those seats from? Loving the sound system aswell, lot of effort gone into that car.

Its a standard sporting interior Retrimmed in red.

Looks good Dan, You need to get it to some more shows and earn yourself a feature

 

[D4N D C]

Thanks for the nice comments,

As Matt says it is the standard Sporting interior except that the front head rests have been swapped for the rear hook over style.

Morty your Punto sounds really cool from your description. I will look forward to seeing some pics.

Matt my last show of the year is next Month at Doncaster Race Course. Fingers crossed it should be a good show,

Your not going to the stupidly expensive one are you?

 

[Thewitt]

Needs lowered

Yeah afraid so mate.

Its £35 a car if the club you go with has 10+ cars. If it has less than 10 its £55.

Needs lowered

Lol, tell me about it.

I am going to try and get it lower in the front arch over the winter. I will have to chop a bit of depth out of the front bumper though.

We got no chance then over on Pmk2

I was being sarcastic!!! The thought of that car getting any lower is just insane!!!

hiya dan :wave:

 

[Elfy]

YOu don't need my opinion you already know it Dan. Stunning! Still want you to come on the puntomk2 stand at some point though

I know you were mate,

The winter plan is to get it 10-15mm lower in the front arch so that only a really small amount of tyre is visble.

It doesn't matter how low you go you just want it lower, haha

hiya dan :wave:

Hello,

YOu don't need my opinion you already know it Dan. Stunning! Still want you to come on the puntomk2 stand at some point though

Thanks mate.

I will make an effort to show with you all at least once next year,

Gorgeous!

Body work looks great, fantastic choice of colour too... I'm not too keen on the wheels though.

C'mon, bet you can get some right wideboys in the arches of a mk2

Thanks,

Yeah you can squeeze 9" wide alloys on the Mk2 Punto's with a bit of arch rolling and I have been tempted by some deep dish wheels a few times.

The thing that stops me is it would mean I wouldn't be able to have the car anywhere near as low.

Your right wide dished wheels could possibly look a lot better than my narrower 17's however imo (I could be wrong) one of the best features of the car is how the wheels sit in the arches..

Thank you very much mate,

retrimmed the headlining in black? what's that like? was tempted to retrim my old tipo but couldn't find a decent colour to match the rest and thought black would be too dark?

In all fairness the car did feel quite a bit darker inside when I first fitted the new roof lining. I have since removed my window tints so it now feels a lot lighter.

I just felt black pillars and roof lining would be more subtle and suit the dark red leather better than the standard lighter roof lining and interior trim.



I also had the OE silver parts of the Sporting interior sprayed the same as the exterior grey of the car. I am not big on painting and colour coding interior bits but I really didn't think the silver would look right with the leather.

I am pleased with the result and imo the whole effect is quite subtle.

i dont think youre wrong at all. Im not a fan of "big kitted" puntos, but yours pulls off a big kit just fine, whilst still working with the lines of the car, and the biggish wheels complement the look perfectly.

it makes a nice change from the euro style scene

OMG that's one seriously amazing looking mk2. You've done a really good job mate
