Grande Punto Vance T-Jet.

Wasn't too hard, just make sure it's warm where you do them and use a hair dryer when applying and cut close to the edges on the face of the light, you might get air bubbles but they should evaporate after a few weeks.

I actually took my lamin-x off last week and put a set of abarth tails on, dunno which I prefer though haha

i might wait a couple of months then, or just do it in my garage. i hope i dont get any air bubbles lol. i'll give it a go when i've got the funds. spending my dollar on ICE atm.

You should put a pic up mate! wouldn't mind a look.

I would but the cars a state! far too cold to wash it, coming up at -6 just now. Would just freeze as I wash it haha

Not going to bother cleaning until decent weather comes round, will clay, polish and wax when I get the chance

hahaha, yer i've tried giving mine a quick wash a few times, and the waters just frozen onto it. so i just did one panel at a time & leathered it so it didnt freeze. not picking up any dirt atm either cos everywheres just frozen lol. can't wait for warm weather so i can get it cleaned up properly!

Heko vinyl badges, for about £10.

Re: Vance T-Jet

ahh cheers, did they go on easily enough? dont feel like they are going to come off? or creased? just thinking with the centre caps not being flat... i know it says they suit domed badges but surely they are all different?

Edit: on reading it again, they do not stick over, they are actual replacements, my bad! what size did you get? 50mm or 65mm?

how did you get the badges to stay on the wheels? as they havnt got the "clip" part that clips into the hole?

They do stick on to the current fiat centre caps and look fine, I just took off the original sticky blue ones. Been on for a while now and they are well stuck on, just heat the area where they go on and heat the badge before applying.

I measured it, think it was 48 mm or so I ordered.

 

[mikejt]

Thanks for that! i have a few spare centre caps lying around and i was looking at one, i never realised they were just stuck on before, there pretty easy to get off as well

Just measure to be sure, as i'm not 100% sure what size they were, I took the caps out to put them on, but they can go on while the wheels are on the car simple enough, as I have got some for a mate as well.

Lowered, Supersport shocks and a new spoiler tip.

Will get some pics once its been washed.

 

[Vance]

Car feels a lot better going round corners now and feels less crashy on the new shocks, getting the scuttle sprayed next time I get some spare time.

Looks really smart now, It just needs a good wash and some tyre gel
Where abouts did you get your spoiler lip thing from? looks sick

Yeah needs a good wash, but it's hard keeping a car clean when you live in the sticks.

I got it off ebay, but paid nowhere near the listed price
