Euro Touches (pics)



  Petrol Blue 182.
Euro never really appealed to me untill i got my first clio whcih was a write off so that didnt get far, but i thought i mite aswell get another clio and do what i was going to do, smoothed, low, deepdish, subtle touches.

First thing i done was smoothing the bumpers front and rear, i filled in the body lines on the rear first,

I didnt rle like the surounds for the fog lamps so i smoothed them into the bumper aswell, being able to still remove the lamps by the screws at the rear.

I then fibre glassed the plate recess by drilling large and small holes in the bumper so the fibreglass could latch to it, i know people will say it will crack etc, but ill deal with that when and if it happens lol ;)

Good skills on the bodywork although the colourmatch looks to be miles off? Or is that just the pics?

i dont think the match is all that bad, how much did it set you all back mate? nicely done

cost me £50 for a litre of paint lol, its my dad sparying it, he does all the bodywork and painting for the coach company in back ground as well as drivin them, used to be a panel beater so knows a thing or too, so just used there filler and fibreglass, yeah colour match does suck, respay LY? :rasp:

I'm a massive fan of the euro style and the car looks to have potentiol. But IMHO I think it can only be pulled off in certain colours?
