as standard..
fitted 15" Dezent alloyd, pained break hubs and calipers and clear side repeaters..
Since then:
fitted ph2 rear lights,
Colour coded and fitted 172 spoiler
debadged and resprayed 'Renault', 'Clio' and diamond badges.
Got some more stuff coming tomorrow:
25mm hubcentric...
hearing some real bad reviews about apex springs atm!
i only want it lowered 40mm .. that seems a to small drop to spend a fair amount on coilovers..

i've got a mk2 phase1 5 door...
so far ive put 172 spoiler on it, 15" Dezent Motion alloys, ph2 rear lights and blacked all badges.. soon to fit springs..
i was worried 5 doors would make it look silly, but if done properly, it can look real nice.
have a look in here...
I'm looking to get spacers so my alloys fit flush with the bodywork, atm its looking like 25mm on the rear, and 20mm on the front..
however, i can't find alloy bolts long enough for my allows and the spacers, as the holes are really narrow..
(the bolts i have at the moment are torqued up by a...
