General My Stilo goes for Ski!

[nikiforos83]

As I finally restored my beloved Stilo its time to explore the mountains...

I tried with snow blankets but its not that safe so I fitted my first ever set of Winter Tyres!

I choose Nankang Winter Activa SV3 205/55/16
@200€

Ready

First try today and they were excellent!

They are great! I loved the one's that I had on a car awhile ago. Get some winter alloys and swap them over around September time. They work well in wet and cold weather.

I like the 3-door front bumper. Does it fit with the 5-door lights, or did you change the lights (and wings?) to 3-door ones?

It fits without any mod, the lights and wings are stock from 5-door ,only the bumper is from the 3-door.

 

[nikiforos83]

And this is the second 5-door Stilo at right that I restore from scratch for my wife's brother.

It looks more sporty with the 3-door bumper...

Hmmmm.... I might have to begin another "project", as long as the Younger Mrs S. doesn't find out.

My bumper has suffered a bit. It's covered in chips, it has a slight crack in the horizontal strakes by the radiatore and it's faded to Tomato red instead of Tiziano red... so I had it in mind to repair it and re-paint it (the same time as the roof - also "orange").

I didn't take it off yet because all the bottom bolts are rusted and the first one snapped, so I need to have time to drill out and repair the others if they also snap.

But if I'm going to paint it, then I could paint a 3-Door one instead....

Hmmm.....
