Its a franchise thing aint it.. you take your chances as to whether you find a good un or not. My bro-in-law had a 3" scrape on the front bumper done, asolutly perfect job for about £100.
Thanks Rhys, that looks like a better option !
James dont suppose you have a pic :)
I just re-read the thread about the guys exhaust and trim and he states the trim is custom and made it himself. Asked him if he could make one up for me to which I would pay him. I will keep the ZS180 as...
Bump..

Help ! I have PMd G8 LEO and waiting for response..

okay I can get powerflow to make me up a custom letterbox exhaust, but does anyone know where I could get a heatsheild to fit it ?
Someone mentioned the MG ZR as a possibilty, this pic below is that a standard MG ZR heatshield ? and do you think I could get powerflow to fit it ? if it is a...
Well just got back from a powerflow dealers round mine, they can do the exhaust that I want for £320, thats for a cat-back.
Just looking to get a nice heat shield for the back when its fitted.
Ye, its been and gone.. was really a trip for them there english folk up to Scotland. Although I spose you could have tagged along and seen some of you own country in a bit more detail.

Yeah it does, just doesnt have the side airbags.
No I meant Drivers side airbag, the article states it doesnt have a passenger side one, but fails to mention the lack of a drivers one.. what a factually correct (or is that lacking) article...
"Although the Clio 172 Cup is 10bhp less powerful than the £14,613 182 version which replaced it this spring, the outgoing model is faster because of its lower weight. Unlike the 182, the Cup does without air-conditioning, a passenger airbag and anti-lock brakes."
Didnt know the Cup had a...
Any pics of it, whats the tailpipe like ?
*edit* just googled it, twin inwardly rolled exhaust, hmm I would really like the boxter tailpipe option for the 172..
Hmm, tried e-mail motorsportworld a few days ago, still havent heard anything back from them but they do custom exhausts.
Other option is powerflow, but heard bad things about them, its either that or I go for a twin 3.5" mongoose. As I cant find anywhere that does an off-the-shelf letterbox...

because how would the oil drain out if it was on the top of the engine???
Duh.. you just turn the engine upside down.. ;)

Well I will give it a go fitting myself and get a mate to help, does anyone know if the original 172 exhaust needs cut ? I heard that you have to cut the original 172 exhaust cause its put on before some other part which means you cant get it off without cutting ?
Alpine HU can improve the sound a lot but in the end your gonna need to change the speakers.
If you dont want to go messing with the car, try buying an expensive set of 13cm speakers and fitting them. Watch the fronts though as they have seperate tweeters which is a top dash off job.
I am thinking about getting a mongoose exhaust for my 172.. (especially after listening to Rhyss sound clips of it) how hard a biatch is it gonna be to fit myself and any special tools I will need ?
Also do I need any clamps or new rubber mounts ?
thx.
Since I have had my eibachs fitted it hasnt done it.. that includes a 1/4 mile session at Crail.
I think the sloppy standard suspension in addition to crappy engine mounts (I had a good look and the truly are shockinly loose) were causing too much movement of the engine, either do what...
i got a phone call from honda asking if i would like a test drive... I said yes and they never phoned me back with a date. Two months later I got a phonecall asking how my test drive went and did I enjoy it.. lol
