2012 Fiat 500 (Verde Oliva)
Modifications
Drivetrain
New, dual note horn. K&N air filter installed.
Interior
Had a guy I know hard wire a nifty power port into the car - now I can power all my gadgetry.
Second Skin audio damper behind all interior panels.
Scheming and planning continues.
Talking to a guy here in town about overlays for the interior panels - leather, suede, etc. If they can make a Godwood Mini, I can have a leather lined 500, don't you think?
Interior ambient lighting, but something fairly discrete - and it has to match the dash lighting colors. I like the forum member who installed some red LEDs in discreet places - I think I'll do something like that rather than the Mopar ambient kit.

Exterior
None yet. Probably going to leave the exterior as is - Q ship style. Plus, I like the way she looks.
Audio
Smart phone cradle from Hot Fiat. RAM iPad mount custom installed. Using the seriously awesome USB drive that Fiat mailed me for in-car MP3. I sure appreciate the clear information provided on the forum as to how to format tunes to play well on the car.
I'm THINKING about nabbing myself a working Motorola ATRIX phone - it seems to have the best functionality with the Blue & Me system. I have an unused line on my family plan, and I can have my incoming Google Voice number port into it as well. It'll be a "car phone" quite literally, but giving me access to the features Blue&Me advertises.

Wheel and Tire
Chrome valve stems and caps installed. The black ones I started with lost their insert after a few trips through the car wash, so I've purchased some new ones.
