yeh i am feeling a colour code soon i think.
and i like the stips lol as the give a slight contrast, im still debatin on my wheels refurbd in anthracite

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

right, heres what i think you should do.

DONT colour coded your bumpers, it really really doesnt suit the uno. the uno looks so cool and old skool with black bumpers! if you want to paint then, get them sprayed in anthricite and get your alloys sprayed the same so they all match and tie in

will look mint

really like the way your uno looks on the 16s mate, so dont go ruining it buy spraying the bumpers white! will look too white!

Colour code

 

[Uno 1.4 ies]

Im with Dunc on this 1 uno's look miles better with black bumpers!!!!
Its old school just like the uno!!!!!

 

[Dunc Uno Turbo]

jamie, urs was prob the worse example of colour coding a uno lol!

bumpers done and not the side skirts or arches.........whats that all about?!?!? just looks more odd than colour coding the whole lot!

but Uno 1.4 ies knows the rules old skool black bumpers

yeah ive painted them black so it wont fade like plastic as much....well not as notcieable. I would like anthracite wheels but im not sure, silver is bland but has grown on me...

and im going to smooth the boot
any opinions on colour coding the plastic bit on the bonnet with the washer jet and wiper blade??

Right, how hard is to wire up a rpm indicator/rev counter?
Beau isnt any help... lol
So thought i'd do the best thing and ask you lot!

:yeahthat:

I'm with Dunc on this one. Black is the new, erm, black! Colour coding has been done to death and black plastic is so old skool.

And colour coding the bumpers and not the arches/ side skirts is :nutter: !!!

Gav, do a search on the forum and you'll find a thread by Louie on how to wire up a rev counter a Uno not originally fitted with one. If I recall correctly you only need ONE wire to make it work, so it's a piece of pi$$ if you have the SX or turbo dashpod to fit in. And talking of which, here's a turbo dashpod on Ebay:

Any good?

 

[jamie86]

Ah well I didn't do it but still liked it

Anyway tended to be more worried about trying to keep the bloody thing running

 

[Gav F]

yeah im watching those dials i can have them for £25 including postage he said - good deal or a no no

oh and im pretty set on set on black my wheels have slight bubbles in the middle and the paint is just flaking off so while its off the road and garaged i may begin to refurb them in anthracite :yum:

Tissssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh BANG!



Jamie, just get that Y10 Turbo back on the road but keep the boost level sensible!

 

[wardys uno]

i was told dont take it any more than that. what you think i should do it to then?? dose the scooby turbo fit stright on then???

 

[Gav F]

i think you should sell your UT....
i know just the person whod buy it :idea::devil:

 

[fiatdownunder]

well i run 1bar all the time, and the turbo is fine.
probably on a stock turbo 0.8bar is best it will do, upgrade the turbo and bobs your uncle! :devil:

 

[Gav F]

right guys
my car is completely clean in the interior!
im now on the look out for some mk2 UT dials/clocks to replace mine

Ive primered one door after it being smoothed and still need to prepare the otherside for some primer.

I did some photoshopping today on the uno, looks slightly chavvy but hey. Just wanted to see what it looks like with charcoal wheels, arches and fogs and badboy bonnet...oh and the sunstrip as my eyes are very dodgey against the morning sun lol

 

[Uno 1.4 ies]

Looks good!!!! Im presuming ur still at college or school as u have way too much time on ur hands!!!!!! lol. Will speak 2 my m8 bout them dials for you 2nite and send u a pm!!! oh and photoshop the red pin stripe on ur uno see what it looks like
