Don't remove them if you're going to do it DIY with rattle tins. Will look absolutely horrendous. Even colour coding them yourself is going to look s**t unless you've done a lot of spraying.

I'm hoping it will be back with me within a couple of hours, probably be gone by the time you leave work I'd imagine! Do it. Amazing machines. Patience mate, you'll find one! As I said, I waited a year! Completely gone off black wheels on them now. Silver looks so fresh, especially with...

Early mate, aiming for just after them opening at the back of 8!

Another minor update, my plate is now on, got shortened number plates from Halfords so still fully road legal with very subtle BS markings to keep the law happy. Car goes to Sitech this Friday to get geometry done and a couple of other bits then over to Gally at the end of this month for a...

They're a Renault silver, just matt lacquered. Bodyshop will be able to repaint them. Renault parts can probably give you the code too, can't remember off the top of my head what silver it is they're painted.

Pretty much what Gally posted. According to CS you can get a "Mint, better than factory" respray for £500 and paying £2k is "ludicrous".

Mine on standard map spits small blue flames at the moment. Anything north of 375 with decat and bigger injectors and you get into BBQ flames territory, which is what I'm aiming for...

Forgot to add, I also fitted a Group A K&N induction set up with dry sock: It's the size of my f**king head and makes a load of sucking/wooshing/chattery noises when coupled with the uprated recirc valve I also fitted the same day, satisfying the chav in me once again. The Thunderstorm to...

It is indeed, sounds like a shotgun going off on gear changes when properly booting it too. Going through tunnels with the windows closed is impossible! Non-resonated with an erm, extremely free flowing cat ;) I'd expected a resonated cat back only to be perfectly civilised.

That 964, oh hell yes. A fair few CS members in those pics too. I see money can't buy taste being perfectly illustrated in some of those Mercs/BMWs though. Tinted lights :dead:.

Re: Finally. Had the car on the rollers at another BeTapp'd RR day yesterday, couple of crappy shaky videos to give a rough idea of the noise it makes with the Milltek! Car made 299bhp on the rollers, so a nice strong base to start messing with maps and more serious modifications, which...

Re: Finally. Still not got a video of the Milltek yet, the noise just doesn't get boring! Much improved. Strangely it's more comfortable on the eibachs than standard, still firm and responsive but less bouncy than the standard car if that makes sense. Most of RSOC seem to agree, the standard...

Re: Finally. So a productive weekend was spent on the RS, springs and Milltek were fitted: Then on Sunday me and a mate in his Impreza hatch took the cars a good blast up B roads near where I live, awesome scenery and virtually empty roads made for a good drive! Snapped a few very shitty...

Re: Finally. Tyres > Tits. Maybe. Cheers mate, I did too! Awesome cars aren't they? Intercooler/map/recirc/inlet are on my immediate shopping list, not too bothered about spacers, looks good just on the Eibachs! One of his shots of it is actually my desktop wallpaper, has been for some...

Re: Finally. ^Dump the Mrs for an RS?

Re: Finally. Thanks folks! Fitted Eibachs and the Milltek to it this afternoon and love it even more. The noise it makes now is utterly nuts LOL. They do come alive with some modifications, I ran bluefin stage 2 with supporting bits and it was totally different to the standard car. Cheers!

Re: Finally. ^ Cheers! They're good cars, I had a lot of fun in mine, especially since it was my first experience of boost and mild tuning etc. They need mapped and eibachs as a minimum though, totally different car after that.

Re: Finally. Thanks again all for the comments. The dealers pictures are much better than my crappy iphone ones, it's also in as good condition as it looks in the photos and how it's described, would highly recommend buying from them. My ST is up on their site now too. Nah not in Wales mate...

Re: Finally. Cheers again folks. Wheels will be staying silver, vents will also be staying green!

Re: Finally. Cheers again all! Crazy how well they have held their value, even more so up here, there's one for sale 8 miles from me at a dealer, a year newer than this but with similar mileage in white and they want 25 grand for it!

Re: Finally. I can't fault them TBH, car was as immaculate as described, friendly laid back service, happy to deal with me over the phone. Decent blokes IME!

Re: Finally. There shall indeed be videos! It is very different to the ST to drive. Everything is tighter, sharper and more focused, brakes, steering, throttle response.The LSD makes a huge difference in terms of grip out of roundabouts etc. Not that the ST is a bad car, just that the RS...

Re: Finally. If you're coming from an ST you should love it. It was well worth the wait and journey! There's no nice green ones up here for sale at all!

So after roughly a year since I first started looking at them, telling anybody who'd listen I badly wanted one, I finally have the car I've been after all this time. Finding one in good condition with sensible mileage and decent spec up here (Central Scotland) that was reasonably priced was...

I don't normally comment on Clio Media anymore, but wow. That is stunning. I normally don't like flamers with non standard wheels either but that works.

Nah that's just pearl black. A properly polished Black Gold car in the sun has a lot more gold through it.

That explains the overspray. Lesson learned here; don't use mobile repairers. Proper bodyshop is a much better idea to sort that.

Easily repairable.

Go and get some quotes. No point asking on here, according to some members you can get an amazing, top notch respray for £400.

Slash the tyres.
