I'll soon be buying one of these in this colour.
Have any of you got any ideas for it please? Colour change is not an option. Ideas that would actually be viable i.e. wheels, stripes (i'm not a fan but if they look good i'm open to ideas), lowered etc.

Cheers guys! :wub:

There's a lupo not far from me in that colour. It's lowered with fat ATS Classics on it. It looks pretty good :wub:

If you modify it as you suggest it will look like a horrid, tacky, chav machine :wub:. If it's your daily drive, then just leave it as it is, (thereby protecting its reasle value) and use it merely as a form of transport, so that you can spend your time and money on your mini instead. If you don't have a mini, then what on earth are you doing? Sell it and buy yourself a mini for gods sake! :( !

Get it slammed on some alloys you like, and de-badge the front end. DONE. a friend of mine has an arosa (pretty much identical to lupo) and thats all he's done and it looks mint!

Coilovers are needed to get proper lows, they're around £220 from what I recall.

And yeh 13x7s will look good if you're low, if not fo 14".

Lupos are 4x100mm by the way
