Spider TS Turbo

Some people here already know me, some don't... For the people that don't know me, here an introduction: http://www.squadra916.com/forums/topic/1294-spider-twin-spark-turbo-project/http://www.squadra916.com/forums/topic/1294-spider-twin-spark-turbo-project/

 

The turbo project is as good as done so from now on I'm mainly working on the looks of the Spider.

Due to a lot of technical issues, tuning and other priorities in the past 1,5 years, I was only able to do some minor adjustments on the exterior.

I changed the wheels (from 16 inch standard p2 wheels to Siena's), bought Novitec coilovers and drove it like this for 1 year/25.000 kms.

It looked good but I wasn't satisfied as I always wanted Giulietta/8c Spider wheels and a cup kit.

 

2 years ago I bought a bumper with Cup/Zender spoiler which I finally painted last week and mounted today. This is the result. I'm starting to get satisfied with the looks but there's still a lot of work to be done!

Looks stunning, albeit I am biased advice got a V6 in same colour with Cup kit fitted !

Were you not tempted to go for the vented wings too?

Some chrome roll over hoops would finish it off nicely.

V6 is the Easy way :P Now I'm faster and I have a more special car.

I'm thinking of installing the fenders but till now, I find them too expensive.

I prefer the look in the first photo  :ph34r: but the originality of the 8C/Giulietta wheels makes them cool!

      Hi guys,
      Hello from Luxembourg.
      Alfista since 2001, first with an Alfa 147, followed by a 159 Sportwagon (twice a jtd Distinctive), I had to switch to a different manufacturer in 2014 as Alfa (still) has failed to produce a successor for my beloved 159.
      Even though my daily driver is now a different brand because of those reasons, the Alfa virus still subsists. For years, I've been tempted to buy a Spider, and after browsing the ads over the last months, seeing lots of high km spiders, many rotten and badly maintained ones, plus some rather unfortunate tuning objects, I now found a very low mileage untuned well maintained 916 3.2 - I bought it yesterday on the spot.
      happy to be back ;-)

      So.. As I quicly get born when I don't have anything to do I ended up buying a former rally car for this years winter fun. An as I wait for the perfect summer GT this will do the trick during winter...
       

       
      The list is long if I want to get this in perfect state, but as a everyday winter-beater it is quite ok! Need a MOT check to get the licenceplates back. It also need to refurbish the turbo as the previous owner have adjusted the pressure a bit too high!
       
      A complete Integrale in parts is lying in the trunk including a new "used" turbo
      I bought this toghether with a friend of mine so we will share this during the winter. Hopefully we can get all panels in the same color and with some detailing it will shine again!
       
      As Kunev says, say hello to my new performance car
