Mesh grills and smoked out taillamps on my Punto

dinu2506 · 9th August 2010, 14:30

I also like the Punto logo on the front edge of the bonnet. Looks cool.

Vignesh, Nice looking & Haute. Btw, Can you give the exact landmark where this is done? Any contact number?. How the tail lights are smoked? Cost breakup for smoking the taillights alone?

Saw this one in Chennai too. I loved it although it could do with better alloys and minus the Ferrari sticker.

^^ Actually I LIKE the placement of the Fiat logo.

But that's the only thing I liked about the mods carried out. I am a conservative.

Can you help me on this

OH MY GOD. Why the white color? Red and white, what kind of combination is that? its surely a pic for a wacky mods section IMHO. I thnk black color would have done justice to the car, also the logo on hood is looking way tacky, like a 'Bindi' to be very honest.
@Vigneshram Please put on the black Vinyl on the middle part of bumper will look super awesome, seriously. By the way whats up with your avatar? Am falling in love with it? Whose car is it?
Edit: Dont even get me started on the number plate. lol.

Vignesh, try to get a small logo of fiat from palio and put it on the grill, I think the small logo on the grill looks real good IMHO.

vigneshram · 11th August 2010, 18:58

i already had the black vinyls on the bumper.actually that was there in my car from day one.but that time i dint have mesh.I will upload pics of a car in turkey with a mesh and the vinyl,looks real hot,people will call it wanna be Audi,but still it looks awesome.

I'm not sure blackening the tail lights is a good idea. Does it mean signal visibility takes a back seat? Looks are more important than safety?

Spotted a Hhonda Civic with blackened tail lights near Airport Road a few days back one after-noon. The lights were hardly visible when it braked. Now, is that safe?

It depends how dark is the blackening.
Anyways Smoked backlight doesn't suit the Punto IMHO

Look beautiful. I want this mod too for my GP.

Not bad dude I think its about time to go for it again. This time also Vinyl the lower lip of bumper the way your friend with white pain/vinyl has done.
My wish list include the rear spoiler and a body kit first for punto. The OEM spoiler that comes with the punto 90hp is not on sale for normal punto at the moment.

IMHO indicas are not even worth to be called cars.but people prefer to buy it.Thats how it is.tastes differ.My friends said silver is a yuck colour in the punto,i bought it.that way.
