Clio 1.2 Starter..

[X 5UGZ]

Hi guys.

Im new to this thing so just needed some help, you get this alot and may get annoying but any ideas on a 2005 clio extreme? (modifications)

Doesnt have to be cheap, but not ridiculously expensive. Picture will be up later of my car!

Cheers Suggie.

Hello! First off, welcome to the forum!

First mods on a 1.2 seem to be, RS front grill, lowering, change of wheels, the usual kind of stuff. Have a flick through other people projects and you'll get an idea. Here's a link to mine, feel free to have a look through.

aha yeah im new fml haha..

thinking of lowering it first!

yeah mate it sounds good, where and when

 

[NussyBoy]

I've not really been on here that long either haha.
Yeah make lowering the first thing you do, makes a huge improvement mate. Try Rokkor coilovers, they're what I've got and they're pretty good. Cheap and cheerful.
Not too sure yet, we'll have to find somewhere that's easy for us all to meet. Do you know where The Priory is ?

James.

 

[X 5UGZ]

Unfortunatly not mate, but i shall find out! Its good too have people in your area that have the
same car so if you have a problem they can help Rokkor? Where would i find these so cheap?
How much are we looking at mate?

Joe.

 

[NussyBoy]

Yeah, I didn't really know that there was anyone on here local to me. Yes the brand name is Rokkor, they can sometimes appear on ebay. I got mine from a foreign ebay, they came from belgium but delivery etc. was suprisingly quick. They are £160 or something near to that for the set can't remember exact price but they're the cheapest ones really. I'll try find you a link to em.

James.

 

[X 5UGZ]

James cheers for the advice mate, helps alot.

How do i upload picture onto the thread?

Would love to get some pictures of the motor put up, shes nothing special but she will be

Thats excellent, 60mm? SPEED BUMPS!!!??

need to learn how to get pictures up..

 

[NussyBoy]

Yeah, they can go lower than that man, mine aren't anywhere near all the way down at the front and they still have the adjusters in the back.
Ahhh use photobucket dude. Set up an account on there and then you can upload photo's to your account and copy the img code and then paste it onto your thread.
I wanna see it too.

 

[X 5UGZ]

excellent man cheers for the photbucket thing... what im gonna do tonight is clean my car then put a pic up!
skys looking a little grey though

 

[NussyBoy]

Ahhh right yeah nice one mate. I'll look forward to having a butchers at it later then. Yeah no doubt you'll finish washing it and it'll start pissing it down. Yours a 3dr yeah ?

 

[X 5UGZ]

i think its gonna piss it down and yeah 3 door, couldnt do with a 5dr there w**k

 

[NussyBoy]

It did start drizzling earlier think its stopped now though. I know man same, that was like part of my criteria when looking for my car. Had to be 3dr lol. I hate most 5dr cars.

i dont like them at all, im thinking about doing things to my car obviously but except lowering, any nice and easy mods you can think off?

 

[NussyBoy]

Like mark mentioned earlier, RS Grille is reasonably easy. Bit expensive for a bit of plastic when you think about it, but does look loads better. Ermm shorter aerial ? or just take it off like I did haha. Dunno other than that really. Probably colour code.

 

[X 5UGZ]

have to have pictures tomoro mate cause camera is broke tomoro deff

 

[Mac94]

i'll join this meet! im over in corby ! you probablly heard of it?
