Re: Cliosport Saturday - The Launch of a New Era - 30th July 2011
Im going to be making the 6 hour drive from Edinburgh on the Friday night and then camping :D
The clio badge will be coming off at some point to be honest!
Not sure about dewipering as i actually use my back wiper a fair bit lol
Looking to get black light inserts! so if anyone wants a swap then drop me a PM and il be down to swap!
Right finally got another update.....
Had my exhaust done last thursday and im so happy with it! It burbles nicely when changing gear! Also managed to get an RS grille off someone on here which makes such a difference although its kinda faded just now so will be spraying it black at some...
Try Quinn, thats who im with just now. When i first passed my test at 17 it was 1600. Just renewed mine last month, 19, 2 years experience, 1 years NCB, Pass Plus and it was £900 which isnt bad for my age with coilovers! Also they dont care about any cosmetic modifications woop!
Not true mate! My insurance company dont put my premium up at all for cosmetic mods, only performance mods like coilovers, exhausts, induction kits etc...
I dont understand why people say not to have the sport bullets? They are on the real sport so why would they not go on a replica? lol
I...
A blacksmith will go through it in about 2 seconds instead of me spending 15 quid on a drill bit i will use once! also i dont have a drill powerfull enough to go through it!
I got one of these the other day and got my builder to try drilling it out for me.... but it F****D his drill bit before it even took off 1MM. Think im gonna have to find a blacksmiths that can drill it out for me, unless you guys have another more cunning idea?? lol
Ye quite alot of rub currently at the moment.... need to get some spacers and get the camber and tracking done as its not been done since it was lowered. no rubbing at all at 60mm and i did put the car through its paces on the springs! Not sure at all about the bright badges ashbash... defo...
Hi mate, ye they are just the standard 15" alloys. And they are just gloss black with a couple of layers of laquer on them! They arent too glossy though which i like! Was so nervous when my mate started spraying them but they have turned out great and i love them!!
it is amazing how much better an RS grille looks, i love it although it needs painted as it looks kind of faded/blueish :S
And thanks Jake, im thinking about smoothing off the bump strips alltogether but not 100% sure yet. Also what plates do you reccomend? Want to keep it all legal so i take...
Right!
been a while since i last did anything due to serious lack of funds, however ive finally managed to get myself an RS Grille which im really happy about because it looks sooooo much better than the old one!
Next thing is a custom 182 style cat back exhaust system on thursday so...
My new 182 bumper ready to get my custom made 182 style exhaust made next week!
What do you people think about white badges and white wing mirror caps?
I think its the white wheels that are puting me off! I might try it and see how it looks! Can always change them back again!
And i dont think so aldo! Unless someone stole it then realised that its so slow they could get out and walk to their destination faster and then returned it! Although...
Im loving the white speedlines mate! They looks awesome! Only thing i would do would be to ditch the cage, im not a fan of cages at all! Ohh and CC side strips and front bumper then it will look tidy!
Thanks alot kris! They were pretty lame im not going to lie! But at least they have gone now!
Need some feedback about doing badges and backs of wingmirror caps white and clio diamonds!
Got some bad news this morning, cutsom exhaust place cant fit me in untill Thursday 17th which is a bugger...
Its pretty hard mate, well its not really difficult but it just takes foreverrr! Have to have the patience of a saint lol It took me 3 days to do it but i recon if you just went at it properly you oculd get it done in 1 day! I had done quite alot of soldering with all the LED strips and that but...
Custom is £350 and comes with a lifetime garentee and i can also decide exactly how i want it to sound! Gonna get it to pop and burble nicely haha
cant wait!
What do you all think about painting the badged and the backs of the wing mirror caps white?
Thanks for the comments!
Your not going to be happy with me Struggler as the lights are staying and i have just fitted a 182 rear bumper!
Cant upload anymore pics but here is a Link to the car with the new bumper, hopefully getting custom made exhaust next week...
Have to say it looks alot better lowered although i still think the wheels are abit small! What size are they?
A long way and alot of hard work to do before its Euro but everyone has to start somewhere! If you like it then keep going with it dude haha
Thanks everyone! Ye my mates is nice but its a not so nice faded pinky red in real life! Needs a respray pretty bad and more lows haha!
Im thinking about spraying the diamonds and the backs of the wing mirror caps white to match the centre of the alloys, what do people think?
Ye i appologise for them, they were so silly, dont know how i thought they were "cool" haha
And thats a good enough reason whiskz!!
cant wait to get my new bumper and exhaust soo excited
RS grille is defo going to have to come soon!
Its a hastle to do the dash to be honest mate, took me 3 days to do the whole interior - window switches and all - To do the clocks they are tiny wee like 5mm x 5mm leds. The old ones need to be soldered off the mother board and new ones soldered...
