retchy Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) hey guys im new to the forums, i have recently just purchased my lupo which i am currently learning to drive in! should hopefully have my test passed soon! But i've been wondering if i can get some advice on what i can do to my car but baring in mind i am a 17year old lad at college with a tightish budget. I have been thinking of getting some black alloys but the prices are quiet high for new ones and im not sure on sizes etc. so can anyone help out a bit i also wouldn't mind adding a nice stereo and speakers to my car but i reckon halfords will be best for that or something. But if you know anywhere i can get alloys cheap etc or have any ideas of what cool things i could do to my lupo then leave me a reply! It is a Lupo 1.0 E by the way http://s1089.photobucket.com/albums/i342/AdamRecsetar/?action=view¤t=mycar.jpg Edited January 20, 2011 by retchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomjw Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hi mate, nice looking lupo. Start off with the simple mods such as:DebadgeRespraying exterior and interior partsTry ebay for stereos and speakers (Pioneer stereos are good and JBL speakers are cheap and are good quality)With wheels you could get anything from 13" to 15" and width wise 7J upwards (Once again ebay or wheel-whores.com or on here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blitzerman Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 so just wondering if i am on ebay if i search '7J alloy wheels 15inch 4 stud' (or something along them lines) they will be the correct alloys for my car? and thanks for the advice.take offsets into consideration unless u dont mind ur wheels scrubbing round every turn bump whatever. and your not limited to 4 x 100 u can have adapters for say some porsche rims 4 x 100 to 5 x 130 or something. Possibilites are endlessand ur best off searching just Lupo Rims or something along those lines into ebay and itll return loads of results just check on here with people before you go buying anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
