Well yes, this piece still exists.
Despite I trying in any way and some age-related it doesn’t give up (the photo is for purely example)
In the 6 years of its honored daily career it has never let me stranded.
But like all the best things, the end is one step away (also because I doubt it will be able to pass any another MOT, the last one was already difficult)
So to end this on a high note, I decided to solve the only real problem that has plagued me for years
Let me tell you that of the last 2 set of tires I finished the sidewall long before I managed to affect the thread ... (and obviously changing the ride height is forbidden)
So like the old man says: go big or go home
And here we are at the last song
And yes, I would like to go down more but I ran out of adjustment
No, I feel dirty to have all that space in the wheel arch
And yes I feel even dirtier to have mounted small tires like that
But at least now I don’t finish my sidewalls every 10min, the cradle and the drain instead
And yes I know that I am very melodramatic and everything, but at least I did something!

I love you still have this little bugger.
The Abarth steering wheel is SIIIICK. Why not do something to the arches to not ruin the sidewalls instead of buying lawn mower tires?"You could roll an E30 in a BMW showroom today and people would think:
Well, they finally got the 1 series right!"

Well I have already rolled the fender to the max without destroy them, and then destroy them with the wrong tools. But still wasn't enough and I don't love over fender (like at all), so smaller tires are the only solution.

About the mods, yes, in Italy is pretty much illegal to modify a piece on your car (apart from the bodykits, but even there there are many rules) and if you want to do something, you must re-register the car and hope they don't bother you (for example, my friends bought a E36 M3 last month, and for registering only to his name he paid 1100€!)
So, what we do? Well we do the same and hope the police don't caught us or charge for anything, so yeah, welcome to Italy, the worst country for modding your car

That explains the super stock condition of my three cars imported from Italy.
At least smaller tires usually bring you closer to the ground.

For now no new photos, since it's my daily it's always so much dirty and I'm too lazy.
And I need to find a new location!

I didn't know Portugal was so much bad, I saw a couple of swapped cars from Portugal I thought was similar to Spain...
