Don't touch the outside!!!!! Really nice car

Have you replaced the farting exhaust? Dont think I can see one- so I say new exhaust

 

[128v]

Thanks Wolfrace,

I leaving the ouside as it is cos i am not in to all that chav style ****!!

I like it to be nice and not OTT!!!

Thought about getting exhaust but does that affect my warrenty and also my exhaust system is one piece from the cat back and the back box is not a section on its own!

I agree subtle is the best

As for the exhaust, it shouldnt affect your warranty. Ive said before, nothing was mentioned when I took mine in for a warranty job with it fitted. If you take it to a custom exhaust specialist they'll do a cat-back system for around 250quid. Well worth it in my opinion

What suspension have you got fitted? It looks lower than mine

 

[128v]

Ta for the info.

I have dropped her on 35mm g max springs, and kept the original shocks from fiats. I am now seriously looking into getting a lower kit with springs and shocks, as the fiat ones are worn out and need replacing with in the next 10k. The car has done 35k in 18 months when i bought i new.

Oh right, thats the same as me. Does the suspension clunk/click over every single bump? Because I spend most of the time avoiding manhole covers etc its that bad!!

 

[James M]

Looking good!

How about colour coding the door handles? And maybe the bumper strips?

Does look low for a 35mm drop

Re: Looking good!

that looks bloody georgeous mate, very smart and what size are the wheels.

colour code strips on bumpers and the handles and have it delocked for security reasons imho

 

[Panda_Boy2]

looks nice mate . i also agree on the exhuast. If i were you I'd go for twin exit as it suits the bumper. just a couple of 2 1/2"-3" should do the job.

 

[128v]

Ta everyone for the feedback, i quite like how it is at the mo. I have got to replace the wheel bearings as they are on there way out. i am thinking about the exhaust but still undecided!!

Thanks for he feedback again

John,

P.S. When is the next meet down south, like london or peterborough way?

That would be the G-max springs, this happens on other cars with the springs and full lowering kits.

Thats a great looker.

I really disliked it when Fiat colour coded the centre section of the bumper. I love the black bit in the middle.

Great rims.

Fiat didnt, thats a custom spray job!

 

[128v]

I had to repaint the bumper because of the paint chips and decided that it looked different from all the rest of the puntos.

MPD2000UK: A few standard Puntos have their front bumper coded like that, theres one down my street like it.

 

[mpd2000uk]

Digimods: Yeah probably cos they were the standard plastic bumpers until they were takin to a spray shop! Fiat dont do it!

 

[Digimods]

It was like it when it was new tho :-/

Certain!
