off forums. They are very rare to get hold of nowadays, though. Even the dealers say they cant get them any more.

 

[burtz]

init the only place i might see one is on ebay and that isnt even a proper one and still needs to be painted. been looking for one for ages man lol

Definately go for white alloys, then to refresh your calipers do them in blue as well.

Just a quick shop, not really black , more of a dark antracite colour.

 

[Munkul]

thats what matte black would look like, anthracite would be lighter and have a brownish tint.

 

[B3NNETT]

i think a lighter colour would look somuch better on a sprint blu imo

 

[Bibby]

[Bibby]

i wasnt out last nite mate but most nites im out and about chorley.

White looks the mint ! you should get some pressed plates aswel.

 

[Munkul]

theres a few sprint blue mk2s on puntomk2.co.uk with white sporting/HGT wheels already.

no denying that it looks awesome though.

 

[Bibby]

bit of an update

Ive eventually got round to spraying my spare sporting alloys white, i was reluctant at first because its been done many times, but i thought ohh well ive got them in the garage doing nothing so i might aswell.

Ive bought pressed plates from Santa Pod when i went for usc

and lastly ive lowered it there Eibach Sportlines and it says 50mm drop on the box but i think they might be a bit less than that.

Im hopefully going to do a few other things ive got in mind, like spraying my sporting badge white and maybe a show roll cage and spray that white, ill have to wait and see.

I know it looks similar to a lot of other sprint blue Puntos but its just happened by chance really lol any comments welcome cheers phil

Ive only got this photo at the moment but ill try and get a few more tonight as ive only just fitted the alloys, it looks a tiny bit lower than that aswell its just because ive jacked it up i think :

 

[Munkul]

looks really tidy

IMO you should colour code your mirrors blue and de-tango the headlights, then leave it, it will look very sweet.

looks awesome!

I agree. completely.
I would do them blue too and not white, but thats my opinion

 

[burtz]

wow... white looks realy smart. got a close up of the alloys? are they the sporting 15"?

 

[phil11_uk]

Thanks everyone

Hopefully im going to spray my wingmirrors soon, in blue!

I like the look of De-Tango headlights but it just looks a bit scruffy under the bonnet, but in the end of the day, who realy looks under the bonnet ? The look of the headlights de-tango'd makes up for the diy effect under the bonnet, so i might have to get myself a dremel and give it a go you can tell i think about things too much

Yea they are Sporting 15" alloys

Heres two close up pictures, i had a slight bit of overspray on the tyre, but it does rub off with tyre black, but not risking using it so close to my alloys yet, going to let them harden for a week then do it.

I sprayed my wheel bolts aswell, even though they are hidden most of the time they look miles better.

Theres two photos next to the standard alloys, but my cameras not very good so they seem very bright, you get the effect though.

 

[Munkul]

the headlights wont look scruffy if you use clear silicone. Tis the mistake i did and it still isnt that noticable!
