Yeah mine was oringally going for a 182 rep..however I'm just going for my own style and enjoying playing around with different ideas....as to money being wasted?? Definoutly not (as this attitude is why people on hear are dicks sometimes and therefore ruin this place for others).
StealthClio -...
well that was a total waste of a reply....(I honestly appriciate YOUR view) but why should I copy every other clio out there....totally dont agree but thanks for your opinion.
I only started this thread so I can follow the progress etc and look into other ideas from other users...but negative...
Finally got to upload some pics...
As per below I refurbed my wheels (just standard silver) but none the less atleast they have been given a new lease of life without tonnes of curbs marks and deep scratches (took a while but they have now all beem taken out!)
Also painted the rear drums black...
Hey...
Havent been updating much on here recently - although most of the projects seem to be looking awesome!!
I have made a few changes to mine (pics will follow I promise lol) but heres a little run through:
Carbon vented bonnet (christmas present from my hero of a missus!!)
Matt Black...
Little update...
I have now had more thought into how I want my little clio to look and I have to admit I am taking a different route (m3 mirrors = Gone, led rear lights = Gone)....
I have also just got her back from the local paint shop I use as she is all colour coded (again a good step...
Haha yeah tell me about it...I start gathering bits n pieces and before you know it I have done wrong! haha
But atleast thanks too you guys and prev threads etc...I have direction! (colour code, coilovers, 182 grill, 182 headlights....) *I just ned to win the lottery lol then you guys would be...
Haha I know what you mean and yes they are cheap and tacky with a rather horrid shiny black gloss finish...however as my mate has her booked in shortly to be colour coded Ive kept the standard mirrors and these m3 ones will be colour coded so I have the 2 sets in case I fancy change etc...

Hi mate - your feelings on the changes (are EXACTLY what I would say about changing lol but need to be sure first! haha)
*Typical poor first choices I think lol...
Well I thought that when I was shopping around (as I had a £3k ish budget alot was available...) however there was a slight...
Ok mate I understand (I must admit I thought you were sounding quite arrogant in your last message).
But thanks - I am trying to personalise this little clio in time and I really am new to owning her and therefore since owning the best model to go off is the 182 cup....(obviously I didnt buy...
The sunvisor is already gone...the lights I'm not sure about yet...however thanks for the message mate, and I will try updating this thread!
Thanks for the feedback mate (need it lol)
Jamie
Cheers mate - someone who thinks like me to the extent of comments!! In regards to the rear lights....I was in thoughs about them but they have remained for now lol....but things could quite possibly change! Thanks though mate :)
Hi mate,
I do appriciate the honesty and can see your point (why go from performance to a 1.6 - of which there isnt much difference from a 1.2 in the first instance to look like a 182 which |it will never be).
The reason behind this is due to me wanting a project....and yes some people like...
Yes...yes it was, thank you so much for that constructive feedback.....bmh.01 you clearly read my 'project' and understand what I said. Tnanks again for leaving your comment - put a smile on my face.
Hey guys..
I only joined this forum last week (and can admit I am now addicted)!
Loads of good advice from fellow owners and ideas a'plenty to help me with my project..
I am somewhat funny with cars and at only 23 I have already owned 16...(but lets not go onto that), thats why I wanted this...
OK matey - bet I prob have seen your clio parked up there then!
I have a very long way to go with the little 1600 lol plans are as follows:
- FULL 182 REPLICA (with a difference here and there where I feel though lol)
- Full Colour Coding (booked in for 1st week in October! Come on lol)
-...
Hi mate...

My reg plate is: J9 TKO.....what colour is your 182 mate??
Jamie
