    Newbie rialto blue GT3 owner (pics).

    Just Thought I'd post a couple of pics of my new GT. Its the first GT i've owned and I absolutley love it. Its not a daily driver and gets left on the drive all week, only taken out at weekends and cleaned vigirously. Just been fully serviced including all filters, oils, plugs and coolant and a new cambelt. She's running a SEB 2 chip, magnex twin DTM exhaust, K+N air filter and a couple of other small mods under the bonnet. On the exterior, the front has been debadged and smoothed, delocked doors, smoked indicator and sidelights, lowered 45mm (I think) all round, 17" Fox alloys in a VERY rare shade of anthracite and couple of other small touches. Loads of mods to come, keep your eyes peeled for my progress thread.!

    The wheels will be up for sale as soon as I can post in the 'for sale' section. If anyone is interested, PM / e-mail me. They're a very rare color and have Proxes all round.

    Cheers,

    Peedee

    I like it, looks very clean.

    I would ditch the turbo badge and the black indicators (replace with tinted) and then change the wheels and it would be perfect.
    Punto Gt no more!

    Ditch the Turbo badge on the back and the dark front indicators and you got yourself a good example.
    Good find mate.

    Edit: Great minds think alike Tom.

    Yeah, I agree with the front indicators.

    They are only blackened out because the guy before me had black morettes, so obviously the sides were done. I'm looking for standard ones at the mo.

    If they've just been s[rayed on the outside, which im ver sure they would have been, then buy some thinners from a DIY store & wash it off - comes off very easy and the thinners is only a few quid.

    Would look way btter with smaller rims imo - id go GT3's personally, but whatever you like i guess.... Pretty good though generally
