thats crazy money for springs, f**k that.
52 mm it is then mate, i just spent ages looking online try any varients you can think of to get more search results. you could get coilovers for that money easy
measure on the front suspension. the rear is different, the dampers and springs are seperate on the rear but one unit on the front. which is why you see coilover kits where it has 2 coilovers then 2 springs and 2 dampers that are seperate mate
if hes saying you have to pay more than £100 then i...
yeah i have a feeling its 52mm for the 6 valve. but you should check, just need to do what dweeb has shown above ^^ measure the bolts center to center on the bottom of the suspension
do a search on here, someone will have asked the question before. but i would measure just to be sure mate.
i know the 16V one is 58mm spacing, and im 99% sure the 8V is different so you will need to measure it or look on here mate
i got them for £200 off ebay and they were absolutely mint mate. best place to look would be here or ebay for second hand ones. theres plenty of makes to look for, V-maxx coilovers have got pretty good reputation on here and can be got pretty cheap second hand. then theres the more expensive...
bleed brakes, probably weren't done when discs and pads where changed as its not standard practice. if the garage did it a bit carelessly then they may have caused air to get into the lines, or could of happened on its own.
but yeah bleed the brakes, then adjust your brake light as above there...
i got AP coilovers second hand and they are absolutely amazing, not had a single bit of trouble with them. plus the ride is amazing and can adjust the height perfectly and the camber etc.
i would honestly save up mate, as dweeb said buying springs will just mean you have less money to spend on...
if the seller is an ebay shop then the chances are you can swap them no problems if he hasn't sent them. or if he has you will probably have to pay the postage to return and send new ones etc.
i would look at coilovers to be honest, springs dont ever lower as much as you want them too
as dweeb said aswell to be honest. £100 for springs seems alot seen as how you can get cheap coil-overs for a few penny's more. or second hand decent collies
if you have bought the ones that are listed as 90-98 then no they probably wont fit your car as they are completely different cars. 90-98 is the mark 1 clio. just because they used the same picture for both listings doesn't mean there the same springs.
also when take your suspensions apart you...
butters if you could let me know what kinda price that would be good cheers
and la21t, do you know where he got his materials? ive been looking online, and for enough to cover my bonnet its gonna be like £230 odd quid, and i could probably get an actual carbon fibre bonnet second hand for that lol
as above you need coilies really. my AP coilovers have dropped my car 65mm and there not even half way on the adjusters, could technically have the car and the floor and the wheels off lol.
this pictures when i first put them on, its lower now....not great pic but still
fairly tedious if i remember rightly. theres like two bolts on top then its all clipped in behind. undo the top bolts and it should give you some movement and be able to see how it comes off around the edges
diamonds are screwed in from behind. front one, undo the two top clips of the grill, then pull it forward a bit and youll see the screws in the back of the diamond. rear one, i think you take the boot card off and its crewed/clipped in behind.
side strips are as mikeh said
i know there is one but i cant remember what it is, can anyone help me out ?
i tried the company my bikes insured with but they still quoted me 3 grand :/
looking to have my bonnet wrapped in carbon fibre vinyl, how much would i be expecting to pay roughly ?
and is anyone on here good at it ? i dont want the proper carbon fibre though, i cant afford it.
think that sites wrong and they wrote mk3 insted of mark 2. do they not have a mk3 one on there? if not youll just have to buy a pack of smd leds, theres a guide on here about how to do it
i think dont put tints on it. bu everything else sounds good, colour code bumper strips ? new alloys and paint brake calipers. aero wipers, list is endless lol
