Just try on on one side and see which looks best

Got some new bits this week Been off work the last couple of days ill and got bored so decided fit them.

First up is a new fiat merea weekend rear wiper. The standard corsa one looked a bit dated and the paint was started to flake off so I got of of these from work. Looks so much cleaner, love it





Also as some of you may know i've been concidering a set of sideskirts for a while now. In the end I decided on Steinmetz ones! Couldnt afford the real ones unfortunately so settled for some replica ones which only set me back £60 posted. Heres a few pics after a trial fit. Booking it in the bodyshop tommorrow to have them sprayed and possibly fitted





I felt the car look too standard. These break it up nicely in my opinion. cant wait to get them sprayed up

Let me know what you think

Will eventually have a semi smoothie There is also another wiper i have seen that is similar but it looks like that but without splits in it i think it might be a Fiat Punto one

I preferred it without the skirts. They look like a different shade of white too?

Get some plain plates, red border and company name spoils it

skirts look good mate but i think it would be better without the rear mudflaps, they make the back end look tall in those pics!

Yeah I just read the text, I just looked at the pictures

Rear mudflaps suit it perfectly IMO

Cheers for the comments guys

Mark, the fitment isnt 100% to be honest. Will need a bit of work to get them spot on. And they are made out of fibre glass.

Scott, I work for Fiat mate I got one direct from them. Staff discount FTW Thet are about £24 normally though.

nova_gteuk, these wipers clear pretty much the same amount as the standard ones. its the punto one which doesnt clear properly

Andy, Not passed my test yet. on the test route now so shouldnt be long!
