quite possibly they come up every so often though, would be good to see some 500 seats in a grande

Haha only joking Matt

had a quick clean earlier, and used some lamin-x that i had on my fogs really pleased with results just need some larger sheets for headlights now. Also got some shots of the 'Bra' not sure if i like or not but im sure will work if i manage to get other jobs done.

i left the flash on, but it shows that the reflectors still work not sure on MOT or not though.

I dont like the bra mate, but i like the fogs and reverse light in lamin-x. I might have to copy you

I thought you got rid of yours?

 

[punto_matt]

Nearly did.

passed MOT fine with tinted rear fogs for anyone else interested in doing the same. however, the bonehead who cleaned the car after managed to peel off the paint on the linea.

Their bodyshop had the car back in within a week and was painted within two days.

Nicely done, anymore plans or is the attention still on your kid?

 

[Vance]

How did you go about doing the lamin-x on the fogs, I've got some spare and might give it a bash.

 

[Mayatt]

got few things going just waiting for the money to do them.

lamin-x is easy stuff to work with, really sticky. just cut it to rough size stuck it on and cut around with a craft knife.

 

[fitzaay]

Let us know if you are ever selling the seats! Ill defo have them off you!!

Re: White Grande Sporting. 2012 Update

Little update again.

had a damaged rim on one of my wheels so rather than a refurb i decided to look for a different set. I havent got any pictures yet but hoping to give car a clean asap and post em up, theyre bk503 i think and they are all black rather than a polished face.

finally finished my dials with a little help from my bro:
daylight:

night time:

also fitted an abarth evo steering wheel, feels and looks alot better than the original in my opinion.

also had to replace my front pads, I got an in progress pic but not one of the finished article. I painted the calipers whilst i had them apart not sure how long they'll stay white but thought i'd give it a go.

Re: White Grande Sporting. 2012 Update

I love those new dials! as for the steering wheel... Is the difference just the silver caps around the buttons?

Re: White Grande Sporting. 2012 Update

It Has a flat bottom which isnt very clear in the photo. Also the leather around the outside is smooth has less seems. Feels a little thinner in places which is nice too.

Re: White Grande Sporting. 2012 Update

ohhhh could be nicer all together then, I've just changed from a mk2 punto to a mjet and the steering wheel seems massive!! haha


edit;

just noticed too just behind your steering wheel, the 3rd stick on the left (lowest down) is that the cruise control!?

 

[gpactivesport]

I WANT that steering wheel :yum:
where did you get it?

 

[Mayatt]

yeah lower stick is cruise, useful on motorways when they're not too busy.

and steering wheel was a find on eBay.

[Mayatt]
