General Project mk1 going good

[Rob-mint-mk1-uno]

I just love the shape and style of a uno, and the clear lights look part of the car un like those horrible lexus lights.
I red your other thread and if you see any then grab me a set i have the money thats no problem.
Mines going in for a complete respray in around 8 weeks time so i need to be able to sort out the side graphics as i want these back on it when its all done.
I like the standard look so i might re-furb my wheels and just lower it and re-move the locks as that look sweet done, then it remains kinda standard.
Can you help on these graphics or are they availiable from fiat still.?

I will definitely be doing them at some point but I have to move house and stuff first. I can't imagine you'd find any through Fiat although there's plenty of companies that do them on site for bodyshops.

Actually come to think of it there was a thread somewhere about rear lenses and someone had a link to a company outside the country that did every type possible. Have a look around, it was only a week or so ago...........M.

what do u think of these wheels on the black one, i was gonna buy them to replace my standard wheels, thoughts please.

 

[serin]

no, they remind me of a 1996 copy of Max Power

 

[Jai]

standards look better
pete any word on the new look?

PMSL Serin!

They are 'ok', just. But why not go for the stock look? If you want to up the size, try and find some Strada 130 TC wheels. Some of them look exactly the same as UT wheels but they're in 14".

Considerd Alfa 33 wheels?

Actually that's a pretty cool idea. They've got that solid Uno feel to them. You could even spray the centres graphite................M.

Na im not to sure on them, they just look dated....... i still like the white one i had in mind, i can always keep the old ones just incase i ever want to fit them back on...
I do like those tsw blades, think that the age is just right for the car after all it is 1989 so those blades seam to suit the unos shape and style... :yum:

I love that photo of the 33 - very atmospheric with the lichen and the grafitti!

Yeah, those Alfa wheels have that 'Euro' look to them that seems to be in fashion now (the smooth look without spokes). I agree with Serin in that the other wheels you're looking at (on the black car) look rather 'dated' to use your expression (ten years old), plus with that extra 'rim' I don't personally like them. On that car they suit it fairly well because of the Hormann bodykit (which is also looking dated now ) Your choice of white wheels reminds me of WRC rally cars... they do look good, much better than the others... but fitting new wheels is almost cheating in a way (of course, that's what my car has so you can take my advice with a large pinch of salt.)

On your original-looking Mk1, I reckon the original wheels refurbished, or for a subtle change the 14" Croma Turbo wheels that look identical to the Uno Turbo wheels... the tyres would then be lower-profile and look great.

Wheels are a personal thing so don't be afraid to do what you want at the end of the day and show us what you decide Chas and I would love to see an Uno on chrome spinners....
