    great vid as always. I am a tool with film so I used a 1k clearcoat , just make sure the clear coat has a UV protectant , lay 2 to 3 layers of clear coat and then polish out the orange peal if there is any . Did this on my 2004 147 with the factory xenon . and they look amazing.

    Nice video. Can you show maybe how to restore a xenon headlight. Have a GT and the rubber is old and weird looking. I got said that removing it is not an option, the silicone grease helped only for a short while ;/ Is there something I can do or do I have to change the whole headlight.

    Hi, what are your thoughts on straight piping a 2.0 JTS. Would you do any videos on exhausts in the future? I am considering to have a twin/quad system in my 2.0 JTS but requires some body work on the rear right side , cutting out the tow section , etc would be great If you can do something like this as I have no doubt many owners have stopped proceeding with this, although they had this idea initially since there isn’t much content about this out there or not many garages know/discourage owners .only Ragazzon has some content but not the best. Thanks

      Hi, I actually have an exhaust video planned. However I won't do the straight pipe, but rather a installation of the rear silencer made by the US based company. I think it will give out a better sound than just straight pipes. Not sure about the 2.0 JTS, I have a 1.8TS...

      I personally owned 1.6 105hp 2.0 150hp, and 1.9 JTDM 120hp. By far i am happiest with 1.9 JTDm. 1.6 consumes to much fuel and it doesnt go as Alfa should. 2.0 is little sensitive engine. Same consumption as 1.6 Diesel goes like hell and consumes a lot less. And no oil consuption like in most petrol engines.
