My Punto is getting Abarth'ed , needed suggestions on side stripes

What about going for a black grill. It deserve a black grill. Logo will be more prominent.

found these picture....

 

Yes the black grill does look good. But I'm more of a DIY guy and dont want to spend much money .
I dont know how to remove the grill so I've kept it as is.
Btw in another post I had actually painted the tyre letterings, take a look at this..http://www.teamfiat.co.in/body/5301-diy-paint-tire-letterings.html

 

i'm a DIY fan as well..
Its quite easy to remove the grill..open the bonnet.. u will notice 4 screws..a 4mm ellan key is required.
once the screws are removed, pull the bumper. Size 8 spanner is required to unscrew the emblem which is screwed onto a clamp on the bumper. once thats done.. pull the grill from outside, start from the side..
for the lower grill ..no screws, just clip on.. use a small wire.. put them through the grill and pull towards you, but slightly in a downward angle..again start from the side..

 

oh wow.. let me try that
thanks

 

happy to help any time.....

 

OMG, I love it.
Can you courier me the Abarth Stickers (4 Nos) which is placed above the side indicators.
As I am in Kuwait and my Punto is at home (New Mumbai),Would love to have them on my grande.
Just PM me your Bank Details with the courier charges to New Mumbai,

 

Guys as promised here are the side stripes pics... Please take a look at it and let me know what you think.
Also if the angles are not sufficient let me know if you need more angles , I'm more than happy to click




PS:: Sorry I was in a bit of a hurry and didn't notice that the white balance is bit off.
Hopefully its pleasing enough or else let me know I'll upload better ones

 

I feel you hav gone a bit overboard in the mods.... the stripes look too thick, cant commet more as i havent seen it in person., then you could have taken it to the front bumper till the fog lamp area. The sticker above the side blinkers looks very odd , looking at the full car. The sticker at the C pillar can be slightly repositioned at an angle . Lastly, i m not a fan of those big abarth in the front n rear glass.. purely in my personal opinion.
Next thing you should do is to get a subtle thin stripe running from front to back at an offset from centre like in one of the punto above. and add a spoiler. Badly needs a set of alloys man !!! That is even far more complex process than choosing a car...getting the right alloy design. Do it wisely.


@thomman,
Thanks for the tip man... i tried the removal of the upper grille, successfully did it and waiting to paint it black tomorrow !!

 

not really because it only occupies about 10% of the doors and this is the size that ABARTH stickers come in.( I looked at some ABARTH stickers to get the measurements and then told the guy to cut accordingly).

This was the initial idea but there are some scratches on the bumper that will make the sticker bulge out and have creases so i refrained from getting it done.

Again as is in the actual Abarth .(Here its a sticker but originally its a logo that's all)

I wanted to make Abarth extremely evident and obvious and I like windshield decals so got it done.

You are one amongst 100 people (at least) who has recommended going in for alloys.
And for all such questions my answer is this.
"Dude you dont know how desperately I'm searching for 98PCD alloys(orange spokes)"
