wel this is my first car, i am not yet 17 , 6 months ish to go, but recently my gran passed away ( unfortunately) ,and left me her mk2 ph1 1.4 rt! 11years old (on a v plate, and only 45k miles )

so far i have,
colour coded the side strips

added a cheapo headunit from halfrauds, only so i could wire up my sub and amp,

got myself a k&n induction kit which i need to sort out,
smoked side repeaters
debadged the boot + bonnet

and nearly finished smoothing the bumpers, just need to sand down abit more and paint

yes i know it needs slamming on it's arse!
and new wheels, exhaust etc, but i have no money!
and i only get 30quid a week from my paper round haha

to do:

ph2 rear lights!
new exhaust,
maybe new wheels? i quite like the steelies
new speakers
dual optics
maybe a boot popper?

not sure whats going on with the front bumper,
but please re-think the use of mesh or any other chavy mods,
i did it to my clio when i first got it, and ended up ripping it all off and putting it back to standard, i facepalm whenever i see the pics!

looks like a tidy car though,
also, i have a set of ph2 rear lights sat in the garage as we speak!

also have the longer dynamic spoiler, in gloss black,

PM me if either of them interest you!

good luck!

I don't want to come across as a prick, but you've ruined a perfectly good clean and tidy car!

That paintwork looks terrible.

You should have just kept it clean and standard, lowered it and put some nice wheels on it.

But then i'm old so what do I know.

Colour coding isn't a bad idea but what the fook have you done to the bumpers!

& I think you have a typo in your list of things to do. The word 'mesh' seems to of found its way into it? Don't do it!!!

Bonnet looks nice though?

Hi looks an alright car, like the colour coding idea, not sure about the mesh.
Once you pass you test you will have some fun in a 1.4 as i have the same clio but a 5dr.

 

[Dweeb]

haha well i have no monies
and i quite liked the idea of having the fog light holders with the cold air feeds n that
but i have no monies and couldn't find them either, so i thought i'd use mesh
basically i know it may come across as a stoopid chavvy peice o'shite, haha
but no more chaviness i promise!

smooth and low! is where i aim to go

please also bear in mind that the paint is not done haha
and neither are the bumpers!

thanks for your opinions though,
all a learning curve!
could be worse, could have lexarse lights
