If anyone wants to do them at 2009 prices, that would be lovely!

Looks great- visually ties the wheels in with the car really nicely.

Yeah, it quite quickly becomes that, doesn’t it. I’m working on two other cars at the same time so it may be this for now and then a refurbed subframe, wishbones etc etc in a year or two.

Basically that. I’m about to put fresh cup dampers on my 172 Cup, cooksport springs and both driveshafts. What else is an obvious job/change to do on a weary Cup while these bits are being done? Will change the gearbox oil, obvs. Any bushes? Thanks.

How did you get on @Kizzaaa ? Any watch outs? I’m about to do this as part of a bigger piece of refurb work.

As above- I need someone who can work over the Clio and remove as many dents and marks as possible- any recommendations?

Amazingly, my rad top brackets are fully functional, so just waiting on a load of parts to arrive now for the extended cooling/ac/panel refresh. So I messed around with the seat side mounts instead:

Thanks. Decided I’m going to change the rad, coolant expansion tank and hoses while I’m at it… how bad is that and do I need extra little bits that I don’t know about (have hi grip clamps)- like bolts and parts that might be rusted or are needed to complete the job? Those are the things that...

Slowly getting through some jobs and identifying more to do… The big one (for me) is changing the ac condenser, wings and bumper. I have the condenser and drier, some ac seals- am I going to need anything else? My rad has some damage at the top where it looks like the bolts from the old...

How’s the car going?

This was meant to be “I feel your pain” but my phone didn’t like that I guess!

I sure your dash plastic pain. At least that can be fixed.

Looking good. Do you have a plan for the exhaust heat shields? I need to source them too, wondering if there’s a cliosport solution or just a case of finding and refurbing old ones?

Great move if you can visit Corbeau. It’s a fiddly job but totally worth it. The wiper blank- https://ebay.us/m/ytO2wR Another job that was a pain in the arse but I like it and it’s the one change the Ragnotti had that we didn’t get on the Cup.

Great work! The new and refurbished parts look so good, and are going to drive beautifully.
