I'll get one when I can but I want a clio van one as they're unpainted plastic rather than painted black

Possibly... link?

Got the car home late this afternoon: Not done much just put the rear light clusters in with silvervisions, put the bumpstrips and handles in along with the mirrors and spoiler and made sure all the rubbers are back in place Still along way to go but you get the idea, the wheels and...

Yep the bay is still silver but thats all that'll be visible The bodyshop in question has had quite a few cars from me and my mate over the last 18 months so we get a good rate especially as this ones is to keep

Ditto, loved it too bits!

Very nice indeed, get mine back this afternoon! I went for a Vauxhall white aswell for the same reason Mine will be externally more of a racer theme without painted moulding etc What colour was it before?

Not yet but i've taken tomorrow off work to do all the fiddly bits and pieces

Nice, very light wheels Did you get then in ET45 if you're still lowering the car as ET37 will probably rub depending how low you go

What do you mean by twin exit? All standard 172 exhausts are the same as far as i'm aware mk1 and mk2 including Cup

Spray is just short of four figures i've done the 'labour' Dynamique spoiler = £35 Cup Splitter = £40 Wheels = £479 Tyres = £220 Springs = £50 Bumpstrips and handles = Free Silvervisions = £20 Recovery truck = £20 Then i've got the original stuff to sell like wheels/tyres, bumpstrips...

I'll defo get it built up asap Suspension: it'll just be on 40mm springs for the FCS then coliovers after that Exhaust: is booked it at AAS in Newcastle for a custon build using a 182 exhaust trim for the 'factory' look

Can't be bothered with buckets etc, I do about 100 miles a days so i'm keeping the comforts

The doors, boot and bonnet are back on along with the skirts There's no locks or rubber seals in yet so the doors won't hold shut but you get the idea from the pics below Its a bit 'fridge' like that'll soon change once the black bits get fitted The glass is getting bonded back in...

£1000

^ Same here, totally agree Without pre repair photos its almost worthless

I wouldn't say its cheap 2nd hand subframe = £60 Fitting including doing the tracking = £150 Repaint the roof properly = £200 probably more if other areas of the car are finished poorly With no pre repair photos it'll be a nightmare to sell on plus i'd say the roof has been creased and...

Only the 'clio' badge is pinned on the boot lid

Two nice subtle cars there What white is it? It looks more 'creamy' than mine when you compare the white of the front bumper to the white of your front number plate although the plates look quite old

Sounds like a plan

Probs tuesday to be honest, work commitments tomorrow

I personally wouldn't consider painting a black car white I purposely bought this 172 in silver with the intention to paint it white from the outset Bodyshops vary alot in price, i'd be more worried about getting a guaranteed quality finish than the price, you need somewhere with a spot on...

Gorgeous as always mate I want some pics of yours and mine at the FCS What travel lodge you staying at on the sat night, lutterworth?

Opel/Vauxhall Casablanca White, there's about 5 different variations of it but all of them have either a blue or yellow tint except one which is the one I went for Because i'm going for white wheels I needed a white white paint without a hint of another colour as it would look daft

Yeh i know but i just feel the black will help break up the white I can always tweek the finished article once its done

It'll look exactly as the picture does in the first page of the thread with black spoiler, handles, and bumpstrips. I might colour code the handles white at a later date but i'll decide when I get it all built up

I'd expect the back aswell I know AdamRs on here put some on his mk1 ages ago so he may well be worth giving a shout to ask exactly what he used http://www.motorsportworld.co.uk/frame-detail.asp?PAGE=/manranges.asp

Fogs aren't part of an MOT

You can get it done alot cheaper than that but with most things you get what you pay for If the respray was crap the car would be devalued, my old valver was painted and painted very well to a point that it probably enhanced the car rather than being detrimental. It certainly didn't hinder...
