I was out with a mate earlier on, sitting in the retail Park like a chav having a convo, retail park is the easiest place to park up. I'm not the usual donkey :p. Anyway, as we were sitting speaking, the boy comes in in a non sport, rediculously loud exhaust, and starts spinning the wheels etc...

Sorry James28 I forgot to update. Mine is hard and has gone back to being shiney on places already, I've probably driven about 150 miles with it. I think it's too far gone tbh!

They look great in silver on that nova^. Would look better than white on the clio imo

You should get them painted silver instead of white.

As good as new! What kind of induction kit is that? I had the same one on my 106 gti but it was carbon effect? Only had it 2 weeks so didn't pay much attention haha

Quite like those! Be smart once they are refurbished.

Does it have to be black and white? Probably get better replies but this is my best at the moment!

I meant the keyless entry haha. Nothing wrong with a write off :p

Ah s**t so it was!! My mistake. Sorry

Jesus, both window regs were changed the Friday before you got the car! For brand new renault items. Glad you got it sold, and I'd imagine you have made a fair bit of cash from the clio and megane so well done for putting the work in ;) Did someone off the forum buy it?

These would look good, in this colour

Hahaha, not so good but it is the ender side of the bonnet after all so it won't matter all that much. Maybe go in and ask them tonight or tomorrow and get it done over the weekend. Yeah that's right enough, what like are the R1Rs anyway?

Almost the same as my brothers. Get these wheels?

Did I see you saying the Halfords paint mix was s**t for the megane? Could swap them over I suppose, I did notice they are pretty crap in the wet which is the main reason I haven't actually changed them over. I didn't fancy going sideways round every corner haha

Needs nicer wheels but other than that it looks good!

Yeah ill keep on top of it now rather than letting it get like that again, wish I cleaned the one I had in my last 172, I always thought it was knackered when it went flat! Where did you get the spray cans of Monday paint from? I would quite like to paint it actually! And the tyres on the...

Wait and see how mine turns out when it's fully dry before you go doing that incase I've fucked mine haha

Yeah really happy with it now! No I've still got the piper cross filter on, just had It off for a couple of photos. Cleaned the filter and re oiled it last month! I was stalking your FlickR the other night and seen all the old photos of it on turinis etc. Kind of want a set now :rolleyes:

Little update on this.. One of my mates bought a 172 cup to use on track/odd day out which had a Ktec Stealth on it. He wanted something louder and I wanted something quieter so we swapped systems over. Really happy with the car now that it doesn't have the exhaust hanging out the back...

I had it upright and spun it through the water, as the wet part came out I was scrubbing it. Then ran warm water and rinsed it off while still rubbing gently. It's looking good as it dries out!

Just done mine now, in the sink with warm soapy water and a new toothbrush. Looks like it's going to come out ok when it dries! Before: After: (wet)

Yeah, stickers are about as funny as aids

I forgot to say when I was here earlier that my workmate told me today that his standard ST 150 would 'ruin' my 172 when I told him his car was slow Bloody Ford owners.

Sorry to hear about the Op. Must be gutting having your pride and joy ruined! That's not really the attitude to have. Fair enough if he was seriously injured and was off work or whatever, but claiming over a little bit of pain is f**king pikey imo! I've had heaps of calls asking me to claim...

Wtf are you still doing here then??? Get out!

Summary? Skipped from page 3 to 5 and it seems to have changed subjects.

Strange, it wasn't that noise. I did notice that seat belt buckle but it was as if there was a purse or something sliding from one end of the car to the other when you brake/accelerate haha

MG cup did you ever find out what was sliding about under the carpet? Just spotted the thread and remembered about it!

Was tidy. Heard the boy that bought it from Chris had been giving it a hard time at a 'cruise' so thought it may have been hanging by now haha.

If you want to be pedantic then he says decent fluid 'etc'! But anyways the convo is over so carry on with your suggestions ;)
