I was hesitant as to how much to wet n dry to be honest for fear of removing the UV coating, but I'm reasonably confident that its not an actual coating, more of a stabiliser that is added to the plastic before moulding.

Yes we know. I used is as a sacrificial product between last week and this to improve the finish over the Menz IP. Theyll be sealed with Carlack when correction has been completed.

I was thinking its just me and you on here Toby. :coffee:

Mrs was driving the RB182 earlier today, saw someone parked at the lights coming towards her on London Road. When they set off and noticed the RB182, gave a big smile and waved. :) Mrs was chuffed - she loves the Clio and now understands why I've been like this for the past 5 years or so with...

:lolup: Seen him a few times around in the morning coming out there.

Yep. Its a glaze, so it has no polishing ability or protection. So put it between a polish and a wax/sealant. Its pretty good stuff masking light swirls if you dont have a machine polisher.

I was bored in the house earlier so went outside to attack one of the headlights. Didnt do a before of the one I started on, as both headlights were in identical condition. Started like this Ended up like this. Soaked wet and dry paper for a while. I only sanded over the top two inches...

Nope. Lives there, seen him a few times. Coming out the estate near the A1 bridge at top of Beacon Hill.

Pulled in front of me this morning around 0730, heading onto A1 North I was behind you flashing in my RS133 Twingo Gordini :D You indicated back to acknowledge, just wondering if you're on here. Seems anyone I ever see doesnt go on any forums :dapprove: ....oh and no one ever spots me. :(

Another spot today on Southwell Road, driving past the Renault garage. White stickered up Clio 197, young fella driving

Retina coming to Macbook Air at all soon ? CBA with expense of MBP, but an air would be ideal. Sick to death of the ever slowing boot up times for windows.

Hi Weo, I replied to one of your threads on twingo133.net - think you posted some pics up of your car with Harphams old 200 Cup. No worries, cheers Fernandez, it made me smile driving up the road to see him wait and wave in approval. :approve:

Sat in the lay-by on the A617 Rainworth by-pass Owner just about to get back in the car as I was driving up the dual carriageway, looked at my car coming from a distance so I papped a few times on the horn :D Owner waved back, so I'm just wondering which forum he frequents. Reg plate started...

Spotted you coming round the corner off the caunton to hockerton lane around 6pm tonight I was the one who flashed you in a Twingo RS133 gordini with stripes :D

;) Stealth is the way to stay with the 172 (I did) 182 back box just collects water (mine does) That said - I prefer the twin outs on the 182 to the hidden 172 exhaust I know why youre thinking about it. You could get an exhaust fitted with a cut out in your bumper, and have a bespoke second...

Apologies, I missed the bit where Riley said there was no spare. Sorry. :)

What a single outpipe, or the twinpipe 182 box. Oh by the way, like is spelt L-I-K-E. :S

Am I the first one to ask, has she not got a spare set of keys? Unless they are at home and the house keys are in the boot with the car key lol I did this years ago, I was 40miles away from home, phoned my dad to go to my house (with the spare set of emergency house keys that I left at parents)...

Champion pics there fella I have a D80 had it a few years now. Cracking bit of kit What you using - the 18-55vr kit lens?

This is the stuff you want http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAISSANCE-WAX-POLISH-65CL-TIN-NEW-WOOD-METAL-LEATHER-/130702589039?pt=UK_Antiques_DecorativeAntiques_Collectables_EH&hash=item1e6e7b3c6f#ht_825wt_922 If youre happy at getting it clean, then all you need is this on top afterwards. Should...

Good find g@z, theyre not bad prices.:D pbirkett, I tried to have my system replicated in stainless, i.e 2" bore throughout. Only bit they didnt replicate was the slim resonator box (silencer) at the back of the centre section, as they didnt have a silencer narrow enough. I understand some...

Jimbo beat me to it with AAS. If you know them and are happy with their work its worth calling them to tell them your situation. In fairness, the Renault system shouldnt be THAT expensive now. Trust me it is the quietest system you'll have being OEM, however they are not mega-durable...

I'm guessing if you have a 172 Cup it is Mondial Blue. Could machine polish, or hand polish, ballache and time consuming for either assuming you detailed it last week. Alternatively, try a filler heavy polish or glaze such as Poorboys Black Hole. It goes well on colours other than black. It...

You flashed me as I was driving over the flyover :cool: I was the one in the RB182 Cup. :approve:

Ph2 or Ph3? I saw a Clio 200 Gordini last week at b&q lights, rare as mine lol. In over a month of owning my Twingo RS133 Gordini i havent seen another RS variant twingo.

Would it have been you I saw last night Toby, driving through Newark near B&Q? Clio200 in blue? If thats what you have in your avatar? I was in an RB182. - coming in opposite direction.

Any differences with the 182 dash?

How long did it take you to take the top part of the dash off? i have had a bulb out where the time is for 1.5 years lol :rolleyes:

Dont know bulb type but its a top part of dashboard off job. remove a pillar trims first. Dealers charge about £100 for this. Prob take an hour or so.

Coming out of Northern rd at B&Q traffic lights.
