I think it's looking good at the height it's at. What's it lowered on / by atm?
its 40mil.. Ive seen some other lads with the clios touching the floor almost! haha, I mean i know its not ideal, especially since i live in speed bump city!! but it looks good i think
I got advised somewhere online to use a citreon c1 aeriel, as i was looking for a fat short replacement for my standard aeriel.
The old aeriel was so badly seized up, i had to take the whole thing out to unscrew the mast.
I had to use plyers to grip it to unscrew it, and ended up damaging it!!
In the end, I think the C1 chod looks sh*t, but on the posotive, it did recieve good radio signal..
So im still looking for a decent aeriel replacement, would like to avoid aftermarket parts, so for now, maybe ill stick with standard
Has anyone got any decent ideas for an aeriel i could use, I seem to think mazda aeriels may fit/look decent:evil:.

type r aerials are what most use
sweet cheers mate. wish i had just asked people on here before buying a c1 aeriel!!
Been busy lately with the car, but now im truly skint
I decided id give the engine a propper clean out, change water, top up oil etc. and I also swapped the spark plugs for some new ones. altogether it seems to be driving that bit smoother.
gave it a good polish!
also ive received the membership package, so on went the sticker, and tax disk
& some more FC stickers for the sunroof
Finally ive got myself some 172 wheels, in very good condition, with decent tread!! thanks Dan!
although i had some trouble, as the wheel nut f*ckin snapped whilst i was taking off the first wheel!! had to get down to a local garage to sort that out for me!! wasnt to costy.. and they ended up fitting all my wheels properly for me, so wasnt all bad!
Now im going backwards with the thread, but this is what it looked like the day i bought it!!
altogether i have:
Fitted 3 different sets of wheels
replaced idicators, with clear ones
fitted 2 different subs
fitted speakers into parcel shelf
had 3 sets of different rear lights
fitted front lights
fitted carbon fibre bonnet
lowered by 40 mil
placed, and ripped off various stickers
tinted rear windows with light smoke
fitted and removed citreon c1 areiel
fitted mk2 spoiler
fitted and removed aftermarket exhaust
fixed interior light
and colour coded spoiler/bumpstrips/wing mirrors/ boot lock/door handles
still to do: colour code bumpers
once thats done ill be a happy chappy

you need some tyres too dont ya?? ha im gonna attempt to sell my old wolfrace ones, there so badly kurbed, ones got a puncture. ha ill be lucky if i get a tenner! they do have good tread on though, so someone might buy them for the tyres!
cant wait to see the dezents on urs man!

cheers dude.. not many people like the bonnet too much, but ive always loved carbon bonnets. yeah its real mate. haha the chippy lights! im not gonna lie, a part of me misses them! im sticking with these wheels for now on, but one day i might come to respray them like a gunmetal colour...
Looks alot better than the start of the thread mate.
Coilovers are definatley needed next
thanks mate. yeah i do want it lower, cant really do anything costy to it anymore though, as im starting uni next month!! so will need all my money. respraying the bumpers silver wont cost too much with rattle cans though. so thats what ill probably do next
no one likes my wheels
hahahahhahahah
haha slam pics of ur new wheels on your thread and youl see what people say!!
i had a thread on media, and got mixed reviews, most people said theyre too small, LOL ...tbh i didnt want 16"s anyway
yeah you gotta do what you like with your car.. f*ck haters indeed. i got the bonnet and front the lights together for £350 including delivery. not bad to say they are usually £500 brand new
and lights are usually £120 brand new
anthracite badges on the back would look good too mat, to go with bonnet...looks angry
haha its always looked angry!! i remember jeremy clarkson saying these models look happy! haha
i want the badges removed tbf
hey guys, just a quick one... can anybody reccommend a decent place to buy coilovers, and whats the best type to buy for my little monster.
raceland off ebay, £160 ish iirc....you selling springs?
been on that since the other day
i like his steelies and exhaust!! guess its cos im young tho? ha also just put a thread on corsa-c forum, they went mental! sooo funny few of the CS lads stuck up for me tho been on that since the other day
haha what they slagged off your clio?? haha, why did you upload it to a corsa forum?? send me the link lol
Oh yeah and i think the lads stickers look the s**ttest, it actually does take some skill to place stickers i think. theyd look orite-ish-kind of.. if at least he put them somewhere decent
Clio 1.2 mk2
Need to swap the cables round for the lights, i'm pretty sure it should be the bottom of the lights should be on when your running the ph2's rear lights. Cars looking better now tho
