Denise, i think you should redirect your gaze to #6


let the devil car see this, and threaten to change his appearance to something similar; and see if that straightens his attitude out a little.

Oh puleeaaze! Batting the eyelashes and looking all pink and innocent doesn't fool me and it sure won't fool the Devil. Do you know I let a friend drive him last week to our car club meeting and he didn't act up not one time? Do you think punishment has changed his attitude or is he waiting for me to get in him and take off?

the important question is not what do we think is going on.... but, what do YOU think he is thinking?

if it were me, i'd say he's learned his lesson. but that is just me.

Hi Guys

Your not going to believe this : I , like many others are drooling over the nr5 cars bumpers. After your responses , i dont know why i din't think about it sooner , i thought i might as well search for the owner of this car and just ask

Now the idea was to post the picture on several German forums and just ask if anybody knows the owener.

It gets Better , seems like the Germans are being very "gründlich" on their forums , There is a huge datebase on their forum ; http://www.fiatspider.de/index.php?opti ... e&Itemid=1

In that list you can even seek on the licence plate , and i did , I FOUND HIM , unbelievebale , but i found the owner , his emailadres , name , car partnr , year , color outside , color inside just everithing

I just already went ahead and send him an email and ask about the bumpers , lets hoep i get an answer soon , I'll post it right away

So keep your fingers crossed 8)

Photos are inspiring! I too like the #5 bumper(ettes), but I also think the entire treatment (lights and dam) is a very tasteful combination. The hardtop in #1 looks like it has a vinyl treatment and looks pretty good. Are hardtops difficult to find? I ask because in our climate (rain for six months) it might be a good idea, plus there is a '78 fiat spider project with a factory option hardtop included nearby for sale. Do they all look alike?

Mine is a Parrish hardtop. It looks like Smooth Line has taken over production:

The third pic with the yellow car looks like the top I have.

Mark, that X has got to be a he cuz it's so dang hardheaded.
