Grande Punto rolfs thread

Introduction

Yes i previously had a mm thread but hadn't really done anything to the gp well that and i made an arse of myself.


So now would seem a good time to start a members motors thread as ive finally completed some more mods and am in the process of others.


Completed mods:

Purple foot well leds (just need to finish wiring in)

Purple interior light

Black drum brakes

Blue lidl headlights

Punto brakelight cover

Rubber mats

Rubber boot liner

Halfords car maintenance kit thing (lock deicer, hi vis vest, anti freeze, rubber gloves etc)

First aid kit

Lidl wheel brace

Lidl mini compressor


Mods to fit/complete:

Purple calipers

Fiatforum decals

GSR

Custom reg plates

Planned mods (subject to change due to current lack of a job):


Blue sidelights

I.C.E setup (yet to be decided)

Merkur or Zunsport grill (painted black)

16 or 17" OZ Michelangelo 8 alloys (size dependant on weight) to be painted with purple chrme rim and gloss black spokes at a later date

Eibach sportlines

Possibly capello/linea kit

Black angel eye headlights

Black led taillights

Full stainless exhaust

Purple dash strip

Purple Abarth style side stripes

Cobra Daytona seats to replace front seats

Full interior refit in black leather with purple stitching and piping

Possibly some Vimto decals

Possibly a remap

Back 3 windows tinted limo black and max legal tint on front 3

going to order my paint now.

nice job! doing a guide? if it works well i'm sure there'll be some who'll want to try it themselves.:p (y)

btw yes admitting to speeding isn't a good idea, but if you do be discreet about it, like say "on my private test track, i got 115 without even trying" do not mention that your private test track is a public road, or worse still say what road it was! wasn't there a case of someone speeding, saying it on a public forum and getting prosecuted for it? either way just think what the stopping distances are when doing 100mph, especially in a 1.2 GP. ;)

was a one off anyhow and wont be repeating it again. the shortness of stopping distance suprised me though if im honest. been in my instructors skoda fabia tdi and his pevious corsa 1.2 and the gp's breaks are definitely better
