What have you done to your car today ???

[imprezaworks]

Got it ready to sell, maybe....

Is this compatible with the regular f4r? Did my oil today and this made a bit of a mess.

Specific to the Mk3 Megane, although he does do for others. Not sure about a 1*2 though because they don't have the modine/oil cooler thing.

Fitted these scuttle panel clips, cheers @Darren S

Managed to persuade the old girl to come out of hibernation.. She responded with the usual "I'm not starting until you clean all
the relays and douse them with electrical contact cleaner !" - playing hard to get, as ever.

New rubber/foam strip at the front of the engine bay.

Completely forgot about this until I saw one on Matt's car at the weekend. I don't think I've had one on for years?

Mine was also missing until someone on here pointed it out. You’ve no excuse as you’ve owned that car from new, haven’t you? 😂

I'm putting the blame squarely on it being at a garage at some point and it being removed then! I wouldn't have removed it and left it off....

Your slam panel has been off and replaced as I am sure I remember it missing the Renault stickers.

Yeah - missing those stickers. Genuine Renault item too - which is surprising as it doesn't have the hole for the bonnet open warning button.

I've had my car 5 years now and this is the first time I've heard of this 🤣

Out with the shitty Pipercross foam air filter and in with the Ramair.

Found it much easier to fit with the battery temporarily removed (probably not essential) - but glad I did as the right-side battery retainer clip was very loose.

Me being me and finding a rattle-can of Hammerite knocking about - I had to tart-up the two battery brackets and airbox support to look a bit nicer at least.

A bit of wire-brushing and wipe down for these...

Got them looking better after a few light coats.

End result...

That looks very tidy!

Painted my slam panel edges - Looks much cleaner
