And I don't mean somebody who happens to own a machine polisher, I want somebody good with a machine polisher :rolleyes:
Had a bit of a nightmare friday morning in a hurry to get my car clean for RWS.
Thought I would give it a proper polish so gave the left side and bonnet a good scrubbing...
Had K-tec coilovers finished yesterday, they are all over the place though, car is currently understeering even at 30mph and won't go in a straight line.
So could do with getting them set-up today as don't fancy doing 40 down the motorway again tuesday morning rush hour :dead:.
Any garages...
I've always said that I don't want red seats as they will look too much with the red of the wheels, but I'm struggling to find any black/grey seats with a red accent, any nice looking ones anyway.
So it's now an option to go for red seats again (with black harnesses)
Can you post pictures of...
Would like to know your opinions :)
Not the best pictures (phone), the red doesn't really stand out properly and you probably need to see the outside of the car in the same photo for it to have the right effect.
Basically welded in some OMP spare wheel straps, stripped the panels, painted...
Owned my car for a good bit now but never made a progress thread so thought I'd make one :approve:.
Before this my car histroy consisted of vauxhall corsa's (all 1.2's), the 182 has always been the car I wanted since leaving school so can imagine how made up I was to get my hands on one.
A...
Stripped the car this weekend, obviously renault didn't design the car to be stripped but as you do it you notice where they have cut corners and it gets annoying!
The worst example being that they haven't painted all of the bonnet underneath where the sound deadening was, so now I've got a...
Went for a drive up and around rivington, covered about 80 miles of climbs and bends, good fun,
tend to find the clio is a pain in the arse on bumpy roads though, just too stiff and gets thrown about the place.
Mate took lots of pictures and i'll add later, probably also start a project...
Does anybody know the diameter of the standard tow eye's (the bolt end)?
I foolishly haven't got it in my car and looking to order an item off the web but want to make sure it fits.

Nothing major but having a drive out to Rivington on Sunday with a few mates, all nice cars.
Plan is leave standish about 2, through the country lanes past coppul and upto horwich then to rivington, past the barns, head up towards blue lagoon, stop off for a bit then a blast down Belmont Road...
Just wondering for power gains I could hope to acheive from these Performance Wiper Blades?

Many Thanks
Getting some coilovers end of this month, looking like it will be the gaz/ktr set.
Was planing to get them fitted at NW performance, but I believe they aren't able to professionally set them up?
Don't want them to be installed and then just leave them be and not get the most out of them, so...
Spraying the inside of the car black, not sure whether I need to bother using primer though?
Planing on using Hammersite Satin Black Aerosol
This:

Has anybody sprayed the inside before...
Was an ace turn out last night, wasn't in mine.
Black 182 parked up with what looked like 17'' silver wheels, seen it before some where, must of been on here
Artic Blue 182 that came and went
Also a V6 :love:
Few other nice frenchies knocking about too, minter of a 205 gti, clio mk 3...
Recently started a new job in a printers, so now have the ability to make my own vinyl wraps, stickers, anything along those lines 2bh.
For what it'll cost me it seems daft not to have a go for something different.
Couple of questions..
Does the adhesive damage paintwork over time?
Would...
See you both quite often and you're always within 1/2 a mile of each other, I wonder if you know the other is there? lol
I go south bound, you go north bound, one clean, one dirty :rasp:
Don't think i've actually made a thread before with pictures so give me your opinions, me and my mate gave the cars a quick(ish) clean and decided to go get some pictures with the weather being nice, only a camera phone so nothing amazing...
Image quality increases if you click the pics...
As you all prob know the radio cuts out after a period of time to save the battery when the car is off, mine does this after about 20 minutes, which is very annoying as it leaves me sitting in silence for 20 minutes more while I eat my dinner :dead:
My battery knackered or is 20 minutes...
The current plan is to put a false floor in the car, basically because I like the look (fully aware that it contradicts the whole point of taking the seats out in the 1st place :dead:) but it's a look that I like..
But now i'm toying with the idea of taking all the rear panels out and spraying...
''OMP Spare Wheel Strap
An alternative method to retain your spare wheel in your race or rally car is to use one of these spare wheel retaining straps. Compes complete with mounting plates and eye bolts as required.''
Guessing you'd have to weld the plates to the floor? Was looking to put a...
Anybody heading down?
Convoying down with mates on the Saturday, leaving sandbach about 12:30, so if anybody fancies it drop me a PM.
Everybody welcome. :rasp:
Could you expect from..
Pipercross Panel Filter
Matched Inlets
Silenced De-cat
