Personally, I think it looks rather neat (and not a little bit menacing...)! (y)

I'd be tempted, though, to tint the back windows, to give it even more of a Disaster Area feel.... :cool:

Thanks :)


I am very undecided on window tints, the thought always crosses my mind - Do I? Don't I? - if I did they would be very light tints as I want to stay away from the dark tint as that on a black car small hatchback could come across chav IMO


by far my favourite car on this forum! was such an inspiration to me before i even owned a mk2 punto!
id love an abarth kit but i dont fancy the respraying money!
such a beautiful car mate! id be well proud!

Thank you very much :) means a lot, especially knowing I am helping and giving ideas to others on here :) yeah the respray is the biggy!! luckily I have mate who is a professional sprayer and bodywork specialist so it didn't cost me to much to get it all done :cool:
 
A Small Tease as to the future of my car...

K-Sport 304mm 6 pot conversion kit for the front brakes.



Obviously I will be getting them in the red :slayer:

Just to keep you all guessing as to what is going to happen next ;)

I need to get abarth bumpers but had no luck so far :(

If you spot any going be sure to let me know please :)

Other than that, shes looking good pal!

This is on ebay for very cheap - 230967973462 type that number into the ebay search - its a genuine rear abarth bumper will obviously need you to respray it to your colour but it is a bargain!!

Thanks hopefully see you at a meet soon! :)
 
T-Jet? Coupe 20v?


I have decided to scale down from original plans as it was going to be a huge mission to get it all done before September but I am still hoping to get a minimum of 150BHP when it is all done :p




Needs tinted windows all round like mine :) (minus the dirt lol)

Ahh the window tint debate arises again haha this is something I always have going through my head - Do I? Don't I? - my thoughts at the moment are if I do get tints it will be a light tint on the rear windows as I quite like clear windows on my car but a little tint may make it look even better :) but too dark and the car becomes to black for me...
