rozzaa146 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Hi there! This is my first lupo and first car! Its so fun to drive and i will be doing bits to her and will update with pictures daily and possibly ask for help! Here are 2 pictures of her but i will upload more later!When i first got her, it already had coilovers and a air filter put on. Since then i have installed a subwoofer and i am hopefully going to have some wind deflectors to add soon.I have a list of things i want to do to her but i'm adding to it everyday:install new cigarette lighterde-wiper the rear windowalloyssmoke the headlightspossibly change the colour of the brake calipersfix the runners in the windowsroof barsIf you have any other recommendations then please do share and they will be greatly appreciated!

rozzaa146 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I have my first dilemma, i am looking at alloys and have narrowed it down to 2 but i cant decide which would look the nicest!I think the black ones would look nicer but i dont want to buy them if they wouldn't suit my car, any help?

mattarosa Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) Buy the second, they need a refurb, so refurb them black with a red stripe round like the first ones. And they aren't nasty multifits! But that's just my opinion. Edited April 30, 2014 by mattarosa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T3LLIOTT Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I agree with ^Mattarosa. Car looks pretty cool though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rozzaa146 Posted May 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Hi there,While im still wondering what wheels to get (i'm terrible at decisions like this) here are two more pictures of my lupo:I fitted a subwoofer a couple of days ago, got it off ebay for £25 and works perfectly Here is the engine, someone had already fitted the air filter, does make it sound better though I will be collecting some wind deflectors today and possibly get either of the two wheels and so i will add more photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 Go for the OEM sport ones honestly... and what's that red cable running over your wing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellytheelephant Posted May 3, 2014 Report Share Posted May 3, 2014 im guessing its a power cable for a sub n amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danyutz Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Does the air filter actually "breathe" back there? Does the induction noise covers the "tapping" of the 16v engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rozzaa146 Posted July 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 Does the air filter actually "breathe" back there? Does the induction noise covers the "tapping" of the 16v engine? I believe it can, and it doesnt make a tapping noise so must be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rozzaa146 Posted July 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 After a long wait of being able to spend a little bit of money after finally passing my test i have been able to get some small things for my car....I bought some lupo sport alloys (which do have some scrapes so will require a refurb) with tyres that are practicually new for 80 quid. I also bought some centre caps for the alloys and i am waiting for them to come. I also bought some team heko wind deflectors I got told by the person that i got lucky with my car as black lupo interiors are hard to come by, does anyone know this?Here are some photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rozzaa146 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 I'm not sure if i should get a front strut brace as i dont know if this would improve the handling or corner speed... Does anyone know if it does make a difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Your best bet for handling is a whiteline rear anti roll bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rozzaa146 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Your best bet for handling is a whiteline rear anti roll bar.I think that will be a purchase for next month i dont get why i get stuck trying thinking of things to do to the lupo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarosa Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 You're secretly happy with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rozzaa146 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 to be honest on the exterior, i am pretty happy, just need the paint redone on the doors where the bump strips came off bad and refurb the alloys. I'm gonna de-wiper the back and possibly but a small tint on the rear windows. Then i want to get a new stereo on the interior but the interior is pretty clean as it is then that will probably be it i just keep having ideas pop in my head all the time though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
