The build
As I found it
This is the Punto today: a white first-generation Fiat Punto, three doors, Cult trim. It has been standing outside for a long time. Leaves in the wipers, grime on every panel, the steel wheels going rusty.
The engine still starts. Everything else is about to change.
Deep clean
Before anything else, the whole car gets cleaned, inside and out: every panel, the glass, the engine bay, the seats and the carpets.
Cleaning shows what really needs repairing.
Repairs
Then the mechanics: whatever the car needs to drive properly and safely, every day, for as long as the stickers are on it.
New paint
The paint is redone completely and finished as well as it can be. The stickers go on a smooth, clean body, and the car looks its best in every photo and video.
Interior and screen
Inside, things get redone too, and a touchscreen goes in. The Punto becomes a properly connected car.
Stickers on
Every approved sticker is printed at its real size and applied exactly where it was drawn on the 3D car. Each one is photographed and shown on the sponsors page.
On the road
The finished car, covered in its sponsors' stickers, out on the road and filmed.

The 3D car is cut into 10 x 10 cm squares at the real car's size. Stickers go on the painted body, the black bumpers and strips, the rear quarter windows and the rear window (perforated vinyl, you still see through).
Never on the windscreen or the door windows (French law), the lights, the number plates or the wheels.
