My Clio Mk2 1.2 172 Replica

[Tomo 211]

Started as a standard Dynamique, after many monies and time have been spent I have an almost complete product, New angel eyes being installed tomorrow and then a HID kit, then that's about it.
Currently has:
Full 172 interior and bodykit
182 Alloys in custom matt black
Sony Head unit
Tinted front lights (changing to angel eyes)
Mongoose exhaust
K&N air filter

Want some lowering springs but cash is tight at the moment so if any one has some old ones they wanna give me a christmas discount on i will be very happy,

Planned changes:
Silver Indicator bulbs, Hid kit, Lowering kit, Bulit a laptop into the boot connected to a 7" touchscreen monitor on the dash with mobile internet.

Let me know what you think and any suggestions

Alloys look so much better in black, lower it and dont ruin it with the lights

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

Sorry my mistake, i used logical conclusion of the mk1 being the early 90's model, then the mk 2 being he oval headlight model i.e w reg, then mk 3 being mine :/
guess im wrong

Don't worry about it, lots of people make the same mistake

For future reference: http://clioguide.tk/

Car looks good though, personally I wouldn't have the sport badge on its own on the rear or the lights, otherwise it looks awesome. You've definately put some effort into it!

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

Looks alright that!

Don't bother with the on board laptop unless you like to do your homework whilst sitting in maccy d car parks with your mates!!!!!

Get a skoda splitter on there, £15 and it'll make a massive difference to the front end.

Remove badges / stickers and don't get the angel eyes!

Not sure about the spoiler either.

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

+1 to the skoda splitter!

Mine not a full rep but does finish the bumper off nicely!

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

Where can i get a skoda splitter from ? ebay?
Cheers for advice, I have however gone for the halo lights, there was a reason for it however, i tinted the lenses in the summer, of course the heat expanded the headlight and the tint spray cracked, so the looked S**t, the halo lights do actually look good tho

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

another good rep there mate. i wanted those halo lights. they will look good. get some photos up as it will be interesting to see what they look like. are they the ktec ones. and sport upper grill?

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

Get the 172/182 headlights with HIDS look much better mate. Gives more of an oem look

 

[mx1_champ]

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

looks good that mate. im still undecided on them spoilers

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

wouldnt bother with the headlights, if you cant afford RS ones id just clean up your ones like the car above so they look nice as they all look cloudy these days on most cars.

needs wide track or spacers on the front and lowered and some tyre gel and it will look good

People with RS ones want the halo ones and I believe the halo ones are more expensive than the RS ones second hand on here most the time

Its preference and opinions rather than finances

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

What spoiler is it?? It's not a cup one??

people with rs ones want halo ones? are you off your dinger?

No, I personally prefer RS ones but the amount of people on here who choose to change to halo lights, its personal preference and ask many CSers who have done it not me

I'll be honest. I think I've seen all of two people (three including this thread) who have changed to halo lights since I joined here in 2007.

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

No its not. Its a Renault Double Spoiler

So it's standard Renault? :s hmm, got more pics of the finished car?

It was an optional extra yes

 

[Feirny]

Re: My Clio Mk3 1.2 172 Replica

It was an optional extra yes

Quite expensive too IIRC. Definitely not a Trophy/V6 Spoiler though.

 

[Tomo 211]

* Update *

Ok maybe i made a mistake on the spoiler, all i did was search on google for renault clio spoilers and looked for what looked like mine, There is a part code on the bottom of it and its genuine Renault as DM said

Anyway pics.......

 

[Knuckles]

Very nice mate I like it. It looks awesome from head on with the angel eyes

 

[Tomo 211]

Thanks Finally some 1 who likes them,

 

[d4nmc]

The lights look good, I used to have that style on my ZS which was well against forum rules (just like cliosport ha). The spoiler looked alright, but a Cup one would be very noice.

 

[h4ml3t]

very nice mate! job well done, iv just done the same to mine have you lowered and spaced yours yet?? I dont no wether to go 40mm or 60mm

 

[SC03OTT]

Nice BMW...oh

Looks an alright effort all round though.

 

[Knuckles]

I just spotted a no no lol... 2.0 16v? False advertisement! Lol

 

[morgam23]

hey guys..i have a quick question.
If I am to put on a 172 front bumper, would I need to get arch liners for a 172 as well.

Also, what is the price of 172 xenon headlights from the dealers in the UK?

Thanks gents/ gals..

 

[SC03OTT]

I think it's the front wings you need to be more worried about. It's not a straight swap.

 

[Tomo 211]

Yeah affraid you need the front wings changed too, there wider than the normal ones, took me a while to find some. cheers for the comments and yes i know about the 2.0ltr bullets, i want some 1.2 ones but cant find any, threw the old ones out when i thought i was cool buying them

 

[Arlett]

Loving the angel eyes, how much can you get a set of them for? & these pictures with or without spacers? Still trying to work out how wide I need to go on mine

 

[Tomo 211]

Sorry, this is without spacers, need them tho, the angel eyes cost me £170 new

 

[skydiver]

Very nice!!

 

[morgam23]

thanks for the response.

 

[Tomo 211]

No worries
as for the 172 xenons, probs 170ish ? not too sure tho
