My 124 Spider tweaks

Nicely done. I like the idea of the silver rear bumper which balances the silver windshield surround front to back.

How did you get the front badge area flat like that?

I also want to know how you moved the front end badge from the bumper to the grille...

Quick update - First Trophy for my 124, beat a brand new Mustang into 2nd place! The owner was not very happy to be beaten by a 5 year old Fiat
The car received a lot of attention especially the interior which my husband had redesigned. One observer suggested that we drive the car to Fiat in Italy to show them what the 124 could have looked like, really proud of the reactions to the remodel of our car. One of the judges was from the TV show Bangers and Cash.

Hi there, sorry have not responded back sooner. The badge was removed by the body shop guys, I think they unbolted it from the bonnet facia and filled and re sprayed the holes, They then cut it into the grille which was also re sprayed. They did a great job as the pictures show and make the car look completely different. Hope this answers your questions

The louvres pressed into the bonnet giving it a more meatier look, do they work? Would those allow heat to escape up and out from the engine compartment? Gets mighty hot under there in the vicinity of an EC 1446+. That heat seems needless now that I've seen these louvres.
