I love how Lupo's GTI's need very little doing to them to make them look fantastic. I really want one of these as my next car :)

LOL, I didn't think you had 17's, they look smaller than that. I can't wait to get it done, lowering's the only thing left to do now. What else you got to do to yours now?

Yeah that looks good Jord :)

Thanks Dan :) Get some pictures of your motor up on here. I need to change insurance companies first, then I'm gonna get some Eibach Sportlines hopefully. I can't stand it being so high at the moment.

Try Churchill, they where a good £500 cheaper than others that I tried. However, they don't allow mods, which is why I'm changing come July :)

That's what I thought at first. But it wasn't removing enough plastic TBH. When you turn your lights on, the plastic can look almost cracked (especially with HID's). This is what I was aiming to get rid of when I done mine. Just depends what your after really.

If you make sure it's full width, then I cant see you having any problems.

You need more than 1500 to expose fresh plastic. I would get more like 800 dry on it first. Isn't there someone local to you with a machine polisher? It's going to be really hard without one IMO.

Yeah I might just leave the handles as I use it everyday, or I might buy a spare set and spray them. Yeah they should be with you soon I reckon

I'll send you a PM Edit: about 2 days

What make of springs is that lowered on buddy. The ride height looks really good. Also whats the ride quality like with standard shocks? Stunning car BTW :)

Yeah that should be ok to smooth it down, prior to painting. Rear bumper (PHASE 1 BTW) is quite easy to get off. Firstly you unscrew the archliner from the rear bumper. This (the screws T20) should be one at the top and and one the bottom of the bumper. Once you take the archliner off you can...

TBH you have to be a real idiot to muck it up lol Just go for it and you'll probably be really pleased with your results ;).

Na I had someone I know do that lol I wasn't brave enough to colourcode when I got that TBH Edit: brake light un-screws IIRC

Right, I've got a little update for everyone. First off I went out and bought some Phase 2 lights on Thursday. Secondly I've colourcoded my rear bumper.

There's this stuff called Lamin-x I believe. Search it on google. It's like a film that goes over your lights.

I've got a set of Exclusive alloys on my Clio. They probs came from that one lol Nice car by the way, your plans seem good :)

It shouldn't have gone that quick. I've only just had mine, and it's had the same one for 9 years.

They only cater for over 21's :( I'm still 18 lol

Hi there, I remember someone saying that Tesco's allow you to have 40mm lowering springs, without any extra costs. Is this true? I'm currently with Churchill and they don't allow lowering springs (or any mods for that matter) lol, so i'm going to have to wait until my current policy runs out...

This Grant's mate? Don't know if you remember me? I've got a Clio same colour as yours. I've colourcoded my Sidestrips the other day. The code you want is 632 and don't go Halfords! loool

Go for it, HID's looks so much better and give off much more light. Win win really. Definitely have them in projector lenses though, that's the only way to have HID's IMO. Thanks, Nick

Yeah the colour match is pretty much spot-on to be honest. The more layers of primer the better TBH, as the plastic is textured. However 4 should be fine, but make sure the primer you use is grey. Sidestrips are easy too take off. Just push/pull them off. The door one comes away from the...

Thanks buddy :) Yep its Gris Boreal (632). I bought all my stuff for Paints4u: http://www.paints4u.com/AutoColours.aspx?ProductID=5021

Thanks, I use Dynamic HDR to make my pics. If you e-mail JungleJim he can send you a link for the full version.

Thanks for the comments everyone. I started colour coding my car yesterday, but I only managed to do the side strips. I'll upload pictures in a sec

Possibly one of the most detailed Car Advertisements ever, I can't believe I just went through all of that lool

Some very nice cars there, that Golf's my favourite though....

As above, is the Hub Spacing on my Grande 52mm? Hopefully someone out there knows already and plus I cant be bothered taking my wheel off haha :rasp: Thanks, Nick

That idiot reminds you of Jay from the Inbetweeners Lol
