Little Red Lulu Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 (edited) Hi Everyone,I recently invested in my own first car, which was a 1.0 Red Lupo E <3She's not on the road yet, insuring her at the end of the month and I cannot wait! She got a good pamper over the weekend, her awful, black, horrible looking bump strips are now off! and LUPO badges off too Followed by the wash, wax and all the works!I shall put pictures on later tonight Oh... ALSO those awful trims off and I am going to have her on steelys for a while, which im planning on spraying white, untill i can afford some nice shiney alloys A great little car, There seems to be nothing with her right now, but she is an old car and knowing my luck it won't be long aha!The only little thing is the little bit at the front just under the bonnet that surrounds the lights is a slightly different colour and not put on perfectly, anyone know of anywhere I could get one? or even a full new bumper.. body coloured? Thanks Emma Edited April 11, 2012 by Little Red Lulu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fob163 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 you could try ebay, or a scrappy, but it will probably just need colour matching! try a local garage. P.S. cant wait to see what you do, red lupo's are the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Welcome, as above go to a bodyshop & ask them about re-painting/-fitting the indicator surround Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Red Lulu Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Thanks Luce! Nice to see more girlies rocking the car world eyy! Fob, There is only little scrappys around where I am, highly doubt any of them would have a lupo.. but i can give a ring around. I have a can of the color Lulu is (Flash Red!

And thanks, I'll be putting pic on laters of what we did over the weekend to her Red is my fav <3Done much to yours?Koop, ah yes, thanks I shall!

JampotJamie Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 hi there, and welcome to the forum out of interest, were the wheel trims the OEM Lupo trims? because imo they look real sweet. i ran mine without them when i first got mine, and i regret it, because looking back at pics, the black steelies looked pretty horrid (it didnt help that min were fairly rusted too )but yea, hope to see good things from this when its on the road. and apart from soft blue (which is quite blatantly the best colour) Flash Red is one of my fav's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Red Lulu Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Hi Jamie,Um not too sure, just the ones in my pic if you can see! They were scratched all over and i didnt like them ha Soo just had to take them off, plus im probs going to spray the steelies white before i get it on the road. Give them a good scrub, i think there is spray stuff you can get to help protect them, them get them white! Hopefully will look as good in life as it does in my head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
