First "mod" ever!

[johnynoi]

Well, not ever. I'm sure there has been trillions before me. This is my first though, because I reckon I'm going through a mid life crisis and can't afford a Porsche.

Yeh its 17's. I know I know, but I like them!

Getting lowered on Monday once I purchase a 18mm spanner

 

[.GAZ.]

no bad mate!

 

[mullen]

not bad tbh!

 

[Naith]

noiceee, pics with springs will look better still

 

[Amy]

Pics with springs, naith? Would look better on the car imo.

Not bad, get colour coding!

 

[Ben.]

nice colour

 

[Addz]

looks good that! nice colour too

 

[GarethM]

not keen on the wheel tbh

should look miles better once lowered.

how low is it going?

 

[johnynoi]

Thanks guys, not quite the onslaught I was expecting! I don't know much about wheels except whats in Need for Speed......

Its only going down 40mm, I want to try and do it myself. Took 5 hours to put the wheels on last night after the renault locking wheel nut snapped.

 

[GarethM]

should have gone 60mm on 17" tbh

may still look a bit high only 40mm imo

Love that.
Need for Speed

Mid life, how old are you?

Are the 1.2 coilies not pretty cheap? May be worth a punt then you can play with the ride height to your hearts content

 

[johnynoi]

27, which is kinda mid life the way the works killing me!

 

[Brett]

Not bad mate, needs slamming now.

[Tupps]

Midlife crisis does NOT mean you purchase a 1.2 clio

 

[johnynoi]

^^^The Clio came first! Put the new springs on tonight, well chuffed even if it did take me 6 hours, but it is the first time I've taken a spanner to a car.

Old one out

New one in!

First one took 4 hours, second one took an hour and the back ones were about half an hour, now I'm away to drink some beer, wake up the missus and demand the good sex.........
