Punto (Mk2/2b) X Reg Green Punto Daily

they look tacky

 

[flisko]

strange looking rims

 

[oldhammer]

The speedlines are whacked on the car but i need to do some modifications because they are much wider then the standard steelies so it's touching other components. It looks good i'm happy with them.

Hint's
Spray bumpers same colour as car,
then spray roof.. white,. id use white gloss.. (domestic white gloss) used for appliances,

photo shop it & see

You've done well with those old wheels, I agree with Oldhammer the bumpers could do with being the same colour to tie things in a bit more, but at the end of the day it's your project, budget etc, if your happy with things looking as they are then fair play to you ...

actually quite like those alloys..different to the 'usual suspects' of alloys that get fitted..
Got to get mine prepped, rear 2 are fine, but front 2 look like they've been to hell and back, think previous owner parked by touch!!!!

Maybe at some point or it may get scrapped before that, who knows only time will tell.

Thanks! Well budget wise i have a certain amount that i spend on my cars weekly so i'll see what will fit in there. Got a mk2 Clio and a 89' Vauxhall Nova that's being restored, the clio just going to have a new bonnet.

I love them, i remember in what state i got them but i could still see the potential in them. What alloys are you fitting?

its brilliant on alloys too,

 

[Breaknob]

I've been driving the car for a few days now and i must say those alloys make a huge diference. My car sits way more better on the road and the handling is twice as good as with the standard steelies, this is just a bonus over the looks for me.

 

[Dark_Crusader]

you got any more mods planned Breaknob or you more or less done now?

Well i was thinking about getting a spoiler, tinting the tailights and lowering it but more important would be an engine conversion but i'm not sure if i would have the time for it.

Yeah i've put it up there but nobody is really interested in it. I won't give it away for pennie, i rather keep driving it until dies.

I find the 185 is better is summer but worse it wet
So i swap to steelie 165 when its wetter as narrow wheels cut into the water a lil bit better

True dat Ziggy probably you're right i mean i didn't drove them in wet yet but i was thinking the same thing. I'm going to paint the steelies later on for bad weather but it's a top secret colour.
