Personal preference on the Renault Badge. I'll keep mine chrome, as having the same colour car as Lewis, I think it looks better.
Considering the spoiler Danny is about £190, then that's not a bad price painted and delivered.
That makes sense actually, thinking about it now. All you're doing is replacing the wheel bolt, with a stud. So just get a stud that goes in the same hole, and a nut to keep the wheel in place.
Looking at their (RareRims) tuner nuts, like these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121038973486?_trksid=p5197.c0.m619
Been quoted £1.20 each per stud, and then £27.95 for the set of studs (Comes in a pack of 20, even if I only need 16).
So £47.15 including postage to mainland UK.
So.... My...
A Horrible b*****d, or a guide?
If it's the latter, there is one already...

Loads of folks running spacers on here. As long as it's not a stupid size, and you use hubcentric spacers, which bolt to the hub, and then the wheels bolts to the spacers, you'll be fine.
I'm running 20mm spacers all round on my mk3.
Ah right. I know of them. Think I've met them on the one occasion but it was a while ago!
Jane who works round the corner is up there just about every week working with them. Small world!
Personally not keen on the yellow mirrors, but it looks good.
Never seen wheels turned like that before either - looked good until you found they started rubbing. And that they made the car look like it was on stilts! :D
Unless you're going for the euro look, a bit on the small side I'd say.

Reading through the forums, 40mm is the recommended max on standard shocks.
The other argument is that coilovers are made for those drops, whereas standard shocks aren't. The ride will no doubt be a bit harder, but they should last longer than standard shocks/ lowering springs combo.
Ok. I'm replacing my stock suspension with coilovers and thinking of AP's.
Have read a lot about camber issues on here though. How did you get round yours?
Is it just the fronts you need, and do the 172/182 ones definitely fit?
Demon Tweeks sell them for less that K-tec it would seem:
