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

As said there are two types, you have the syndrome not white finger, you didnt make it clear there are two types in your post until now, i dont know the subject well, just wikid white finger and thats what came up

i dont wish to insult you but i think you should get a job, get your own car, stop sponging off the parents, get your own insurance policy, cut your hair, and get laid

whoops......

PWNED!!!!!!:devil::slayer:(y):worship::worship::worship:
 
I would be going mental if I fitted a GSR to a car I couldnt drive!!

i might go out in it tomorrow with my test being next monday some practice would be good.

"dad, how was it?"
"it was good, son"
"awesome! well worth the money"

:rolleyes: he rags it around a fair bit so hed probably notice more a difference than i would.

I think he should of put it on WHEN he passes!

i had naff all else to do yesterday and it was ok weather so it seemed worth it. plus then i can say ive done something thats actually worth it


Good work Carl, nice to see you get some proper mods done to the car :)

When the alloys getting ordered?

thanks.

ive just spent a fair bit on some cleaning stuff Andy Monty recommended and some other cleaning stuff i need so my account currently is diminished to all of £40 :( (although i have a good £200 to pay in).

plus i really cant make my mind up between these:

TSW Venom:View attachment 56273

wheels- sub £100
refurb-£200ish
decent tyres- £135.60 (for michelins due to good family experience eg my dad hd 79000 out of his last set before the sidewall perished although they still had a good 6-7mm tread left on all 4)

OZ Michelangelo 8:View attachment 56274

or to be more precise these (the ones in the above pic are 5stud only) :View attachment 56275

wheels-£600ish for 16" £750ish for 17"
refurb-£200ish
decent tyres- £135.60




and what size to get them in. id like 17" but my common sense is saying 16"

opinions please.

iive heard it. after it having been suggested that if i run the engine at idle for about 10 mins the ecu will adjust itself.
