Freya.x Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) So, I know a lot of people have said they aren't too keen but I absolutely love my car.. it's been lowered slightly (40mm), the roof has had a vinyl wrap and I've just got a set of 55w HID's put in - yet to get pictures of them!Before my roof was done..After I had the roof done..

LupoJoe Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 It's UP to you what you do with it and I think the gloss black roof looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freya.x Posted July 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 Lol to all the 'Up' humour! There was no way I could have kept it standard, I'm looking for more ideas of things to do... I'll be lowering it more once coilovers that are affordable are released as at the moment there are only £800 ones out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freya.x Posted July 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) Yes sorry, I have had it coloured! Someone hit me a week after I bought the car so I decided whilst my bumper was being sprayed anyway I'd get it done! :-) Edited July 23, 2012 by Freya.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thooooom Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm not a huge fan of black wrapped roofs on lupos, but on this it looks awesome! Do you plan to lower it more when coil overs are released? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hakster Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Looks fab, i have to concur the rear spoiler in black would be great.Love it. Think it would look even better with the spoiler wrapped as well!JoeMy thoughts exactly, would tie in nicely with the black glass boot...

BEP51 Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Very nice! I do quite like these now... Why not debadge the UP! badge and put a lupo one there instead - as thats what it really is anyway - a mkII LupoLiking the black lower rear bumper, would the rear match the front if the indented line around the rear plate was black too? - think it makes the car look a little wider.

Freya.x Posted July 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 I don't know if I'm keen to be honest, I think it might be a bit much black with the chrome etc on there!We thought about getting the spoiler wrapped but I'm not convinced it would look right because of the way it sits on the car, I think I'll probably leave it for now.. Again I think it might be a bit much black but we will see...As for the coilovers I'll definitely have a look but I asked someone else about theirs and they said they couldn't find any so they have bought polo ones and butchered them lol!

jon_273 Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Looks cool, the subtle differences make all the difference.Still surprised no-one has slated you for fitting HID's to reflector headlights though. Is it a proper HID kit as HID bulbs are normally 35w whereas halogen bulbs are 55w? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freya.x Posted July 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) It's a proper HID kit, that's exactly why I'm contemplating leaving a different forum because I'm sick and tired of people telling me how bad it is and how illegal they are etc. I ordered the 50w slim ballast hi/low kit but they sent 55w that didn't have slim ballast, they fit perfectly and only a tad brighter but look brilliant I think! They are definitely HID's though... Edited July 23, 2012 by Freya.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
