    I will look up the Ebay users name and report back!

    The trans insert from NUE-F went in today, noticeable difference in feel! A bit more vibration but nothing annoying, that's for sure! 1st and 2nd are much better, I suggest this mod for sure!! Also had amber parking lights installed, no more "peach colored" lights. The bulbs are from Nokya and are called hyper amber #7443 IIRC...MUST HAVE!

    Luigia's Lashes hatch insert for Fiat 500 Abarth, this is what comes up in the heading, let me know if this helps. I'm on my phone so I can't copy and paste the addy for you.

    Anything done to your car? Btw, you can have the inserts done in any color combo too, along with other items they make.

    Many thanks! Luigia's Lashes came right up in Google. She has some interesting stuff.

    My car is pretty stock. I do have the Neuspeed short shifter which I think you have too. The car is an emotional sort of thing for me. I owned an original 500 before you were born, I have owned several other Fiats over the years (bought my son an 850 Spider which was a basket case for his 16th birthday and "restored" it with him). I used to work in a Fiat/Lancia dealership and I have always enjoyed Italian cars (and other things - I raced a Ducati for awhile too).

    Did you do the Fiat driving experience? If not, I recommend it. It was fun and much better than I expected.

    Thanks,
    <TED>

    I haven't done the Abarth experience but after reading about it it doesn't sound all that much fun as it sounds like the rules are strict! IIRC its here sometime in August and if its the 1st weekend in August I'll be back home in Detroit taking in the events that preceed the Woodward Dream Cruize!

    I don't have the NUE-F short shifter but I do have their rear motor mount insert and I would HIGHLY suggest that, firms things up and gives more feel to the shifting!

    This is my 1st Italian car and I love the attitude it has, I look forward to getting into the car everyday, can't get enough of it! The mileage has been consistent too, last 2 tankes were 33.6 and 33.4 mpg, have gotten a high of 36.8 mpg on the way back from Detroit to Chicago...using sport mode too!

    I have lots of mods planned for the car and they'll happen in time, i.e. lightened crank pulley, FMIC, offset racing stripe, 500T head/parking lights (maybe the tails too), maybe a Modern Enginweerng TB and Forge BOV too. When it comes time for tires I will up the size a tad too, up from 205/40 to a 215/40. I also plan on the "big red" rear sway bar from RRM for sure, probably before I go down to the Dragon this year. Oh yeah, the NUE-F race axle-back FOR SURE, take that awesome sound up to 11...!

    I bought it from 500Madness, its from a company called BLACK, made in Italy. I need to treat it with some Griot's leather conditioner, love the smell of leather!
