Grande Punto The story now, and as it continues

Introduction

EDIT Adding this photo from 4/5/2013, and removing all other pics from this first post to remove the 'ugly' ones of my car from its thumbnail ;) Haha. I'll repost this "1st" post later on :)

EDIT 2: Decided not to repost, did do, but it looked odd. So plain deleted. Old naff standard 1.4 GP Sound on steel trims anyway ;) Not missing much, but the progression can still be seen.
I've just had a thought. I'm spraying this spoiler, right. I have primer, black and red. Do i need a can of lacquer? or clear lacquer. What do i need, if anything???

Just finished doing the primer coats too ;) Progress is getting there.
 
Cheers for the Sam. Tbh i think i'll go without any laqcuer seeing as i have matt black alloys.

Got to re-sand the primer down a bit, as i've noticed after drying that its dripped in a spot, and there are hairs all stuck in it grrr.

First attempt at doing anything like this, so i was expecting a few hiccups along the way.
 
Gone a bit quiet on here of late. Had an appalling month to be fair, i was on the receiving end of being dumped by the missus....so yeah, not a fun month. Anyway, i'm rejuvenated...and throwing myself back into the car (as you do!)

The wing mirrors are now red, they have been for about a month, i just haven't had time to get out and clean the car then get shots of it. So bear with me there...it will be done soon.

The spoiler is also done, i've just got to attatch it....which i'm absolutely s**t scared of attempting myself. Anyone want to come do it for me (y)

Opinions on genuine Punto mud guards. I've asked this before in the past, and i'm sure the answer was "it'll be fine". But i thought i'd ask again just to check. I know they are going to look the nuts, i think they do in general. Query is mainly about how they will be with curbs with me running on Eibachs Sportlines. I'm thinking i'll just go with it, very rarely do i park on a curb. If i do i can always just roll it up and down reeaally slow i suppose. Anyone see an issue here? Or maybe experienced and issue, or maybe you haven't experienced any problems. Let me know please :)

Who's going FF Xmas meal? Toying with the idea, i can make it....just got to click 'book room' online and i'm there!
 
Wishing you kept it now you got a new GP you could have fit it to? Better than your other choice anyway, good to see you in a GP. Looking forward to seeing this one in the flesh at some point!
