I want a sporting that low, so thought i'd use Bow as a virtual guinea pig and :yum: now I'm in a must have a 16v punto sporting mood again lol
Beau, pretend like u havnt got the kit, then you wont want to sell it to fund some ****ty lexarse lights for the car, when what it wants is some good tinted ones. Then slowly start to get stuff done, skirts, exhaust, bumpers, etc, etc, if you save up for the bigger stuff frst then you can do the detials later in your case, like tints, interior c/c if u wanted etc and get yourself a F*ckin job If you save and commit to getting the bumpers n stuff done, you will feel less inclined to sell it and more inclined to finish it

I know what you mean about aerosol lacquer, rattle can paint did a good job (or rather I did, took me two weeks to perfect a pair of bumpers, flatmates were damn angry about the fumes ).
but then I made the fatal mistake of using that spongy tacky stuff. should have taken it to get lacquered properly.
front bumper is OK.
rear is sugery below the rub strip
worst is the mirror's
I got the paintfinish absolutly beautiful (like you wanted to stroke them every time I saw them), but then I spray lacquered them, and when bugs and stones have hit them it has left tacky crators, looks like syrup
bit peeved off, but still, some serious polishing and some seal see's them right (for a few days)

and as for paintmatching, if you could get the original manufactuers paint in a can, or a bottle, and have a pro mixer/paintshop fella there will be no problems.
but if your like me, and you got your paint (wanted 3cans, ended up with no less than 7 varying shades of green, none of which are close enough for me/sodding perfectionist here) from helfrauds it won't,

What's wrong with keeping the bumpers. I don't see the rush, you haven't got your licence yet so just save your money and buy the suspension, and you still have the abarth kit. Or save to get the abarth kit on and colour coded, then save for suspension. Simple!
low enough?

looks good, but dont think it will be possible
my exhaust scrapes on every speed bump already, that wouldnt get over one i dont think! loland them dents dont look too good
I'm saying DO NOT do the bumpers.
just lower it.
abarth skirt it
gekko air freshner..
and erm, learn to drive it.
But of course beau, if you do stuff it, you are going to be laughed at for a long long long time, I'm talkng decades mate.
no pressure though

Before you get your liescence would it not be best to get a frikin job? Seeriously ffs, coz otherwise you wnt be able to run it. Then maybe concentrate on gettin the neat stuff done, Im just glad ur sis deleted the ebay detials, coz those lexarse lights just showed what little taste and sense u have :worship:

Thats where the real advantage comes in with apprenticeships, college and a job, so not only do you get decent pay, you get more qualifications too. I hate college, as do most, if you dont theres usually something wrong with you lol, but at least its not constant and your getting money and better trained to do a job that interests you and pays!

Current biggie i'm working on is Rolls Royce in Sunderland, such a bitch of an application mind
Yes Bow, do not work at Tescos and own a cheap arse chav mobile and work 90 hours a week to buy ripspeed parts as you earn £4 an hour
Get off your arse and get a proper career.Current biggie i'm working on is Rolls Royce in Sunderland, such a bitch of an application mind
Sorry for taking this off track even more but in essence we're tryign to help beau, lol
BUT i have a good friend who used to work for rolls royce many moons ago ad served his time with them. His name is John Baxter and now owns pineview engineering and is a multi-millionaire and makes some of rolls royces parts. Not many as they apparently do most of their own machining, But he does a bit for them in particular
Just shows what a good scheme can do for you
