I purchased a Renault Clio 1.2 (75) dynamique in January 2012. This was my first car and i thought seen as though its a 58 plate with only 23000 miles on I would keep it for a few years. I knew what i wanted to do seen at though i was 17 when passing my test to the car.
Here's how it looked standard.
i was just going to keep it like this until i started searching and seeing the car i had done up so the first i wanted to was get black wheels, the first thing i did was get a kenwood head-unit, JVC front speakers and Fli sub.
as i passed my test later on i wanted to at least do my car up because USC at Santa pod was approaching so i bought tints but could only do the side 2 myself
after going to USC i decided i was going to my car up alot more so the first thing i did was buy a stubby ariel and bought some team heko wind deflecters:rasp:
i then went on and painted my callipers all black instead of the rust
i then was searching for black wheels but my sub-woofer blew up so i took it back and they replaced it so i thought to make the boot and lights alot better and bought blue ones.
after this i found some wheels which was on gumtree up for £380 they was team dynamics 17" wheels with Yokohama prada spec 2 so i rang the guy up and baffled him down to buying them for £220 and picked them up that day in bury. then this is how it sat for a very long time:
after about having these for a month i got hit by another car at 30mph in the back which also messed the front end up and my insurance company give me this:
i had it for at least a month
A few weeks later it snowed and this happened :dapprove:
i was then getting laughed at about how high my car was so i went all out and bought some AP coil-overs for £430
but i didn't know how to fit them but my friend did so i had to wait for him to do it he first did the back of the car
it sat like this for a while as he went on holiday so i decided to spend more and buy HIDS h7 8k but when i come to do it the gay to do it was that small it was impossible so i i had to take the bumper off and physically take the light out
i then realised the black wheels was kind of chavy so i sold them for £200 only loosing £20 but using a full set of tyres, so i decided to leave the standard ones on which my car went lower and my mate came home and wanted to the front which we did.
i waited it too settle and the car went lower and also bought a different grill.
i then started to see more euro cars about and i feel in love and thats what i wanted to do make my car euro!
so i bought yellow tint and a yellow LUKE tow strap
my car sat like this for another good few weeks, looking at split rims quite cheap but couldn't find them anywhere so i was going to leave it went to Buxton and took this picture:rasp::
people then started to say how nice it was instead of chavy etc then one day i saw a eBay listing for some lenso BSX's and thought im definitely buying them and i did i wont them for £400 with slightly stretched tyres!
my car went even lower and sat like this
i was so pleased with how it looked and the stares people give you was untrue
and today my car sits like this:
other mods I haven't mentioned are the de-badge of the boot lid that was the easiest mod ever haha and the carbon fibre look badges on the front and back badges and i have also took my tints out, i was thinking about sticker bombing the wing and smoothing but it costs so much i also have the 1.2 turbo spoiler which needs to be fitted! and i definitely want lower at the back can still see arch gay and 100% camber on the back!
Thank you for taking the time to look at my project thread.If you think i should do anything else please tell me
