low and slow ;) (teaser pics)

[Spinksy]

Here are a few teaser pics of the green machine before CSS

fingers crossed she will be completely finished before then...
iv tried a few different angles to show the different aspects of the car and the ride height (excuse the crap quality...)

i shall replace these with some good quality pics when i can go get some with the missus' camera (no pics of her )



a few insta-fail pics:



let me know what you reckon and i promise better pics soon

 

[Addicted]

Nice to see you've toned down the green on the front, but still not a fan on the wheels I'm afraid!

 

[Stefan.]

im sure its your pride and joy and being different and all. but I'm really not a fan sorry

 

[Hixle]

100x better than what you original plans were mate.

That said, it's not my cuppa. Standard rear lights, black calipers and taking removing the tints would be what I'd do.

 

[Spinksy]

Haha its cool guys at least you're not shouting about it being s**t :LAnd I'm looking at a second set of wheels in the future I love these wheels but think the car would look phenominal on either: OZ superturismo's (black), OZ ultraleggera's or some other deep-dish rims

 

[Chip-mk1]

Well it sounds like you enjoy the car which is the main thing, but personally I think it was a lot better before you started altering it.

 

[iOllieSM]

Definatley needs to be lower mate tbh

 

[Spinksy]

Thanks and the lights are standard mate they're just slightly smoked to take the edge off the red :L the calipers are negotiable and the tints are staying :L

 

[Spinksy]

I really do chip I enjoy cars in general and you mean when it was standard? Or my original plans?And flol at ollie! I can't fit a finger between the top of the tyre and the arch now it has settled, I need to get the arches rolled now :/

 

[iOllieSM]

What size wheels are they? Mines quite a lot lower tbh by the looks of it mines about 80mm and won't physically go lower unless I roll arches too. Saying that it is on 15's with low profile tyres so it's proper slammed on them

 

[Spinksy]

nice :L the second set I want would be 15's but these are 17's atm 205/40/R17 :L so low pro's aswell but its dropped about 70-80mm :L

The height looks ok now, but the wheels are just horrific, lol

I'd definatley get a set of 15's. Not a fan of big wheels on small cars, thats why I stuck with 15's on mine sounds silly too but feels quite nippy for a 1.2 with smaller wheels. Love it getting some good pictures of mine this weekend, il send you one on here

 

[Spinksy]

Haha the wheels aren't too bad, but would look sexy if it was on superturismo's, or ultraleggera's or some nice deep-dish rims

 

[Spinksy]

Deffinately ollie haha I'll get some better pics up when I get my missus camera off her and Its gunna look mint for CSS

When is CSS? Havnt been before but am quite tempted to come.. Is it too late to get tickets for it?

 

[Goodj]

Needz lowz.

n stance

There's a link on the top bar fella, I'm sure that you could ask nicely for a ticket.

I've not been before either, but it's about time I did, so I'm going to, whether I'm in a Clio, V5 or Benz, it doesn't matter

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Hmm..

Still not a fan of your van.

:dapprove:

 

[Spinksy]

I hope its not too late :L I'm buying my tickets on the 1st haha and its gunna go a little lower on 15's :L but until then its not too bad :L and I aint gunna camber it so no stance I'm afraid... Just low and slow :L

 

[Spinksy]

Its cool giraffe I don't expect everyone to like it especially not evil animals :L

 

[james95]

i do like this but tbh the only thing i dont like is the green outline on the wheels but other than that its a lovely car. hope you are enjoying it

 

[Spinksy]

Thanks james a lot of people aren't keen on my wheels so don't worry haha and as I said I want a second set of wheels so I can switch and swap between whenever I fancy and I would kill for a nice set of deep-dish or OZ on

 

[james95]

deep dish alloys would look good on this IMO, everyone goes for the OZ/Turini type wheels

 

[Spinksy]

Weren't thinking F1's lol was thinking superturismo's or deep ultraleggera's though I do like ROTA grid deep dish

 

[chriscummins7]

Looks better than it did, but the wheels really let the car down I'm afraid.

 

[Spinksy]

I don't have 400quid for a decent set of deep dish wheels though :/ these wheels will do until then...

 

[chriscummins7]

You don't need £400.

the wheels that were on it originally would look much better than the ones you have on now.

 

[Spinksy]

You mean the bronze and chrome ones?

 

[VR46-G@Z]

Fair play to you for being different but different isn't always good, I think it looks tacky with the green bit's but you like it so that's all that matters really

 

[RDH]

Doesn't look bad but the wheels are poop. And driving into ditches/parking on curbs to try and make your car look 'slammed' is pretty ghey.

 

[Danith]

I like it. Think it's a little belter. The only thing I'm not keen on is the twin exhaust and the dark rear lights. Think it would look ok on those FK lights or like the ones Jesus has on his trophy.
Good to see a Clio that isn't the usual with cup spoiler, turinis, eibachs................oh arse, like mine. But no it's good to see some individuality on here and I think the colour coding is done well - but maybe an OTT colour. And the wheels are nice, again, just maybe the colour is OTT. Don't do the grille though like in your avatar!

 

[McGherkin]

I'd swap the green edges on the rims for black rims with green detail on the centrecaps.

 

[Chileno]

Don't you get tired of seeing this green color wheels everyday? Not being an as* but you know, it's like some colors of cars

 

[Spinksy]

nah fella i like it and looking at a second set of wheels for spares anyway

I'd swap the green edges on the rims for black rims with green detail on the centrecaps.

iv got no way of putting the wheels back to how they were :/ and i like them as they are

thanks man tis my belter and the grille is black :L and staying black

might be ghey but these are the best pics iv got until i get to go out with the missus at some point :/ truth is i can't fit a finger between the top of the tyre and the arch (its about 80mm drop all round..

yeah haha alot of haters on here, a few people that just dont like it and the odd person that just appreciates it's different :3 then the odd one that actually likes it and nah it looks alot better in person

i want some of these ideally: or something like these in black....

but the current wheels will be staying for a while...

 

[VR46-G@Z]

Now ur talking with the Oz rims! I wouldn't say a bad word if you whacked a set of those on ur belter!
