Girlfriends Brand new Fiat 500 build thread

I picked up a brand new 2012 Fiat Bianco Perla (Pearl White) automatic with white/red interior for my Girlfriend a bit ago.

She wanted a mustache so I put one on it

After putting 500 miles on the clock she said she wanted to have the sickest Fiat 500 ever. So I bought some KW Variant 3's.

Then slapped those suckas on and got aligned.

Next day went over to David @ VIP Modular to get fitted with only the best in shoes. We decided on VX110's in Dubai gold, polished lip ceramic clear coated, double step lip, gloss black bolts. Here is a picure of an idea of the wheel. This one is basically the same without the gloss black bolts.

Yeahhh. I think her car should be pretty boss in the Fiat scene after the wheels are done.

Interesting build for sure, but in a good way :). I can't wait to see the VIP Modulars on there, especially in the Dubai gold finish. And I'm loving the KW coils too!

17in. We aren't sure on the width yet. Its going to be around 8.5 - 9.5. After the faces are done then its going back to VIP Modular to get the lips and barrel sized up

Thanks guys. They should be done soon after SEMA.

A local Fiat 500. A little too much poke for my liking. That's being taken care of with air and some new suspension bits.

Oh, nice Miata! I have been wondering what happened to all the Adore bumpers AK sold. I still haven't got mine on.

Looking forward to seeing the wheels on the Fiat. Should look pretty posh.
