You can just buy the plastic casing from Renault, they're £200+ per side though IIRC but there's nowhere else to get them. I managed to get mine cheap due to working in the trade. Also the bumper should easily be fixable as long as it's not cracked, and I personally would shop around for a good...

What colour is the car?

You'll need to wet sand the primer down with 800 grit wetanddry paper, and you'll have to use the 2000 wetanddry paper wet for sanding the lacquer. Gris Boreal is also an utter ballsack of a paint to match even being painted in a bodyshop so be warned.

Ronals do not suit ph2s at all.

Chrome headlights :dead:

The sidestrips and wheels look good IMO, but the orange looks pish. Oh and PMSL at the glue left behind by the chav shopping list someone's had on the door! No wonder it was f*cked when you bought it if someone like that owned it before you.

LOL you made one thread and no-one answered within ten minutes so you created this one? Have patience matey, the advice on here is worth waiting for as it's usually spot on.

There's a green in Lotus I think it is, that I reckon would look amazing on an all out track use clio.

As in an automatic big ass machine type car wash? You actually take your car through one of them?

Projects?

Re: donnys front end. Good paint that IMO, we use that at work for the higher end stuff/ Honda warranty work. We also have debeer for the smaller jobs/simpler colours because it's pish at matching a lot of micas/pearls/metallics.

TBH it looks to me like all it'll need is a headlight and probably some brackets back there, maybe even the front panel/inner wing straightened out a bit. All the outer panels are easily repairable so you should be fine :) Hope it's sorted soon.

LOL that'll be lacquer then. It'll still scuff, I'm a painter I know it will. Looks like you're going to take this car down the same route your old one was going....

What colour are you painting the footrest?

After seeing how tastefully done your saxo was I'm expecting good things to come from this project :)

Re: donnys front end. I've done my front and back bumpers twice, my sidestrips twice, my drivers side quarter, my interior strips and gearknob insert and my 4 wheels twice, all for the exact amount of £0. Beat that ;):rasp:

Welcome, and you're going in the right direction with those mods!

If you're stuck for ideas for a colour, have a look through your paint chips at work in some of the higher end stuff, I had a flick through some of the Porsche and Lotus chips at work and there are some stunning colours in there.

http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=278273&highlight=bumper That's the guide to taking your bumper off, putting the now one on is just the reverse of taking the old one off. Is searching really that hard?;)

Re: donnys front end. I wish I could do homers in my work :( Looked like a very good finish pre-flatting and polishing tbh, out of interest what paint scheme/lacquer/guns were used?

FLOL Surely he doesn't think they're believing him?

I love it. Would love to see a car like this out on the road, would have me smiling tbh. Keep us updated :)

Thats a stunning car.

I like the wheels but I hate the bonnet.

I'd be careful, all you need to come up against is a red top corsa or a vts and you'll get left standing.

There are no Eibach springs that lower a 1.2 45mm, it's a lot of pish what they say on the box/website. Anything less than 60mm is a waste of time with a 1.2 clio, I know from experience. I've also been running 60mm springs on standard shocks for months with no problems.

Bugger all you can do with that rear bumper apart from get it re-painted I'm afraid. Tidy motor though :D

TBH your car looked worse than that when it had all the stickers on it ;)

Yes, my current car has never given me a single problem *touch wood*

Have you ever had a car that hasn't actually been broken?
