As mentioned in my last post this weekend I planned to go around the car trim with C4 and revive the plastics as best I could.
The plastics came up a real treat and would recommend this to anyone :O a permanent tyre and trim shine finish ..... Some before and afters....
Before pictures have...
Some goodies came today ready for the weekend:
Meguiars Headlight Protectant:
"This creates a barrier between plastics to stop harmful UV rays, prolonging the clarity and brilliance of new or restored headlights" (I.E. Stops plastics from dulling or going yellow). I could only actually find...
What came in the post this morning :) What makes the meets, the website and all the little bits in between possible, best of all it creates a place where you can share your ideas with others, making new friends along the way !
Cheers ClioSport Admin Team and all members, new and old! :drunk:
Hi Tom, yeah its all coming to together nicely, I have had a look at yours a few times I must say :approve:
The bulbs are W5W fitment the same fitment used for the cars sidelights, I've linked the ones I used below, hope this helps...
Ahh when you said little red i thought you were referring to the dynamique you also had on the drive :)
Got very similar ambitions to you..... very good taste i might add ;) Keep up the good work I'll be keeping an eye on this thread :)
Some nice mods and refurbishment in progress....
Not having a go and don't take this the wrong way but if i was spending 10k on a trophy with very low mileage the last thing I would want to do is to take it out on to a track.
Very nice car though very jealous, are you even in newport/cardiff...
Another small update, I decided to update the interior lights to LED's :)
I decided to buy the same LED's that I used for the sidelights to keep up a consistant pattern :o This is how it turned out ......

Indeed it is :) Im glad there are others like yourself that appreciate that, overall it does make a massive difference like the silvertec indicator bulbs :approve:
Finally got the whole set of rear badges for the car, didn't want to put one on at a time while I was waiting for the others to arrive, uneven wearing/weathering and all that...... because im anal like that :rasp:
This is what the factory badges on the car looked like up until the change.
As...
Many different brands of cleaner however the one i found the best was Professor Amos Shock-It-Clean, its really powerful, the parents are shopping channel addicts so always have handy products around the house :D
If memory serves me corrctly this was off of Ideal World but i have included the...
Brilliant, me too although I don't have the pressure of already owning them and then fitting them to find out they are a disappointment, I doubt it though as every trophy owner rages about how it transforms the car :)
God yeah they were awful mate had to take the whole seatbelt with its casing out of the car, soaked it in a bucket with 5 different detergents and used those magic eraser pad things to rub the excess off :headno:
5 hours...... never again :boring:
The water was black :dead:
Definitely have to let me know comparison between the two and whether its worth me upping to them :approve:
In the meantime get him clean so I can have a nosy ;)
Just a bit of fun ... I bet you there are a lot more you could get confused over reading, or for that matter even bothering to read ;)
Top Lad :cheers:
Never mind :(
Oooooohhhh, I like the Sach idea, mmmmm something I think I will invest in time, let me know what its like when they are fitted. Are you currently on Factory Cup suspension ?
Previously from when I stripped out the rear, the seat belts were something i pointed out in the pictures as they looked like they had seen better days.
So thats another one ticked off the list..... this one drenched in the Supagard Interior protector :rasp:

Thanks, anything you like in particular ?
Had a little peak at your BG :) that looks pretty good too, that a yozzasport you have have fitted to him ?

So I have been wanting to reduce the little defects that have arisen in the paintwork over its 7 years of existence, soooooo.......
Last weekend I decided to invest in some Meguiars Swirl X, Scratch X, and Ultimate Compound (Ultimate compound hasn't yet arrived)
Some may be questioning why I...
Sounds like a plan, would be a good day out :)
