Well after 6 months of ownership, a lot less time with it than I'd have wanted, a few kerbings, blowouts and general misdemeanours, engagements, Christmas, birthdays and other money eating monsters out of the way, it's time to give it a bit of tlc. Full service booked, new wheels ordered, ££s in...
Yes that's it mate. Didn't know how sturdy the clips were. Knowing my luck if pull it off, break the clips and not be able to get itv back on again. Gotta clean out the temp sensor fan to stop that annoying buzzing but again I don't just wanna rush in and end up breaking stuff.
Very true! Not too sure how easy it would be to strip the tacky rattle can paint off. Would love superleggera's or turinis. All cost at the mo. Dreaded wedding to save up for.
Blind spot not too much of a problem although seeing anything out the rear at night is. Have to use spider senses when reversing. Would say that's the only downfall. Popped the trim off waiting for my vinyl wrap to arrive from eBay. If it looks crap it'll come straight off. Only £7 for 2m2 so...
Stickers are currently being scraped off as we speak. Tempted to keep the tints solely for having little'uns in the back. Can't stand tacky sun visors.
Hi guys. Had my iceburg 172 for about 6 months now. After some little mods, nothing major/overly expensive, to give it a little character. Thought about giving it a colour code ie trim callipers, mats ect. Thought of Kawasaki green. What are peoples views on this? Any other input would be...
How easy is it to remove the interior trim? Was thinking of giving it a wrap for a change of scenery but don't want to fly in with brute force and ignorance and make a complete hash of it. Any special techniques?
Cheers

Seen a few floating around the area lately but these are the only two I've managed to have a little run with. Both looking tidy and on the forum. May know of meets in the area. Im The iceburg '04' 172 with black alloys
think it's a lot better to have the tailor made/personal
touch. Need to get the money together and read the instructions of swapping a wheel over. Not about an airbag in th face!
Nothing really wrong with mine. Just think snappy's ones are awesome! The 197 ones are in eBay/amazon for around £120. Think the airbag looks sleeker and just all round nicer in the 197's
Still yet to find a reasonably priced badge. All been £40+. Mate works for Renault so hopefully he'll be able to fix me up. Link for Ariel:

seeb a few wheels about for between £30 and £50 but also seen some awesome 197 wheels. Fit and...
Got mine from amazon for £4. Quality yet to be seen yet though. I'll let you know. Yea I prefer the new rs badge. Looks a lot sleeker. Admired his wheels from day one. Gotta get a cheap spare while I send my one off.
Any things better than the current state of them. They look like someone's spilled tea all over them! That's a great quote on insurance. Mines £925 but got no claims. Not looking forward to the call when I let them know all the mods I've planned have been fitted. Sussed the whole tread thing...
Same as. My uncle works for a sheet metal fabricators and powder coaters so gonna send mine off to him one by one. Ordered a bee sting Ariel and new rs badge today. Gotta hunt eBay for mats that aren't gonna cost me an arm and a leg. Also gonna have a chat with snappy on here to get my steering...
Yea. Came with a ktech stealth system. Sounds awesome. Find myself driving around with the windows open in the freezing cold just to hear it a little better. It'll never grow old! Did you sell one and buy another straight away??
