MrPoppins Unregistered M	i love it, even the spoiler, if you change the spoiler it will just look like all the other aftermarket spoilers available, i like it as its all new designs, colour works really well too

carbonara Unregistered C	Thanks MrPoppins... Boosted7, Back then in the 2002 when it was still new, around MYR190,000... now for second hand, u can get around MYR65,000 Yeah, our car prices are damn high because of tax... A mini Cooper S will set u back MYR240k, Golf GTi MkV MYR200k... If dollar to dollar basis, 200k pound can get u a couple of porsches LOL

However, I have to say that this is by FAR the best-executed body customisation of a Coupe I've ever seen. Fit and finish is at factory standards (better, actually) and the details is staggering. However, above all, the paint has got me thinking - my car will be in for paint in the next couple of months - its already Sprint Blue, so I'm wondering how mine would look in the same colour as yours - its utterly gorgeous Well done

Just brilliant how the car has been given a chissled angular look through the vents,skirts etc. Similar to a modern lambo. looking at the bonnet and grill on yours im thinking that a Fiat coupe could also be modelled on an Aston Martin.

M MrB Unregistered
MrB Unregistered M	Well, I opened this expecting to hate it, particularly as it was Pearl White to begin with! But, spoiler aside, I think it's excellent. I think the vaguely Lambo'ish lines of the additions front and rear compliment the rest of the coupe nicely. Personally, I'd have left it Pearl White, but that's 'cos they are as rare as hens teeth over here. Have you colour matched the interior pieces?

Jurgen Unregistered J	Well that's certainly different! Initial thought was 'he ruined a perfect pearl white plus!'. But have to say the quality of the work looks superb and apart from the spoiler it doesn't look overstyled at all. I love the colour, very unique! I'm not too fond of the black wheels though, think they might have looked better in that grey colour you also used for the light pods and the spoiler (kinda like the LE I suppose, but more modern).

Must say, the paint does look fantastic. That satin/matt finish is quote a popular new trend. Wonder how easy it is to clean a greasy pawprint off though! Habeus Maximus V8 Nihilum

LobsterTC Unregistered L	It looks ok, i personally preffer the zender or LE kits, but it looks to have been done to a great standard... For some reason it looks like a new style vauxhall ??? Dunno why but it just makes me think of that...

M maastiff Unregistered
maastiff Unregistered M	that is stunning looking, looooove the paint!! front bumper and grills look amazing, wouldn't look out of place as a concept car at the Frankfurt motor show quality of finish looks excellent. well done. But, something just not quite right where the fog lights have been covered in though, I mean it is done really well and flows into the bumper nicely but not sure if it works with the lines of the bonnet, can't quite put my finger on it

Bodykit need a new bonnet.. (expensixe) 2. You do not have fog lights and front indicators.. 3. You can't fit the undertray straight.. 4. You can't fit the front foam straight probably.. 5. Where is the tail pipe ? I really like front wings and rear bumper.. I'm not fan of the boot spoiler.. AutoDS Team Poland Fiat Coupe Spoilers www.autods.net 10% Discount Coupon: fccuk

GT_SEB0 Unregistered G	it could be slightly modded keep the oe bonnet and fogs n lights and make a new grill for the front and i presume the tail pipes are in the center of the bumper custom exhaust or a tail pipe in the diffuser
