Punto (Mk2/2b) My first car!

[AdamRyan]

Hi guys, I haven't been doing much to my little fiat recently because as you all probably know the weather has been absolutely s**t. The sun eventually came out today so I decided to give my car a good clean because she was filthy and then I decided to remove most of the stickers off the rear window because ive grown out of them and I didnt really like them anymore, I also decided to take her for a nice drive in the country and take some pics, here they are let me know what you think!

Also another quick update, my induction kit was held to the battery tray with a couple of cable ties, it was secure but I wasnt very happy with the way it looked so I hand crafted a steel bracket for it and painted it, heres some pics:

Just go to members motors and it says new thread in the top left, just put some pics up of it and tell us about the specs on it and all the mods you've done to it, stuff like that

I must admit I did like the stickers for a while but I've got a bit bored of them now so I took them off, if you mean my headlight bulbs I have a HID kit, there cheap to buy these days and pretty easy to fit.

 

[tbrads94]

Ah right I just wanted some new bulbs make it look abit smarter and on a different note just this minute come in after a mini service, clean and detail on car she's looking well now

Looking good mate, looks lovely and clean and the paintwork looks in really good condition aswell! Nice one

 

[tbrads94]

Cheers man !! I'm now considering some abarth side skirts and some alloys which I've had eye on for a while ... I was that close to buying em but I had to replace the whole exhaust system and I couldn't afford both so the alloys went on hold just praying he's still got em

Yeah the alloys will really set Your car off, the sideskirts were a bastard to fit but there worth the work, you should look into getting an abarth spoiler aswell, I picked up a genuine one off of eBay for £30 and got it painted for £40 because I was too scared to paint it myself lol but I found it really set off the back of the car and made it look nice.

 

[tbrads94]

Hmm never thought if a spoiler to be fair ... Ill look into it I'm quite lucky that at a scrappy in my village there's a 1.8HGT same colour as mine with the abarth kit on hahaha what I call I stroke of luck

Tom

Haha why don't you just buy the whole car lol and use all the body it and maby the engine as well lol

 

[tbrads94]

Hahahaha I ain't got nowhere to put it otherwise I would don't know whether you'll be able to help which bulbs do you use for the main and dipped beam because I know the bulbs for 1.2 8V are different to other models ... Are they both H1s or one a H1 and another H7 hahaha god why do they make it so complicated why not just use same type of bulbs for all models hahaha

Well mine are H1 in both the dipped and main beams but I know they can vary in different models so the only way to find out is to remove them and have a look.
