Recieved my new Cup Spoiler on Thursday, got it sprayed on Friday, fitted Saturday... Please note, all pictures have been taken at the top of, what is fastly gaining legendary status, my drive! One took before (actually a few weeks ago): And now with the cup spoiler: Also, tried a bit...

Seen you a couple of times... Went past you t'other day in the town centre! Blue 1.2 with black Team Dynamics alloys! Looks nice! Sure he's on here!

How do you get the brake light safely out? Need to drop it off at the bodyshop asap, but need to get the light out first! Any help would be great!

Ive been a Clio owner for about 1 year and 1 month so thought id make a thread about my year... It started off with the 1.2 53 plate Extreme 2 When I got it: I then got the modifying bug and got started on the beast ;) Dynamique Spoiler - Check Custom Exhaust - Check Tints - Check...

How do you protect the steering wheel from the dreaded melting?? Mine is in really good condition for its age, but as mine is going to be mostly out in the sun, I want to know how others have protected it (if they have). Or is it a case of waiting for it to melt, then getting hold of...

As above... Where can I get this from, what is strong enough to hold a number plate on? Thanks

I will be getting the 172 serviced next month (along with my MOT :S ) Im going to be getting all the bits for the service, so that I know the garage will be using good quality stuff. Can everybody recommend me parts and the brands for the things I will need: - Oil Filter (Standard Renault?) -...

Want to order a 3/4 front plate, but I it seems that you have to order both front and back plate together. Is there a way to just order the 1 front plate as I had a new rear one done about 2 week ago! Or is it just me being a r****d??

As above, im looking to get an iMac as my laptop is knackered, and I might aswell get one while I still get student discount.. ;) When are the new models due to be released? If any have been confirmed.

Can anybody recommend any professional detailers in the area? What sort of price would I be looking at also? Ive found PWPro in Mansfield, but want to shop around before I decide to get it detailed. I would do most of it myself, but theres a few scratches and niggles that need a "professionals...

Which Spoiler would you prefer on my Flame Red 172?? - Cup - Trophy - V6 (Isnt the vee's the same as trophy though, not sure tbh) Im kind of swaying towards the trophy as its a bit different to a Cup one! This is the last thing I want, and then the car is finished :approve:

Im currently on O2 and got rid of my iPhone quite a while ago... Im wishing I still had it now, so how much would it be to get a replacement from O2? Full whack?? Thanks

Just received some spare bullets (thanks col182 :) ) Now, my plan is to respray them myself. Im thinking standard silver with Red lettering... I dont want to totally colour code, but what do you guys think I should do?

So after about a month and a half of ownership here is how I am getting on... Here is how it stood after the last thread I made: Couple of bits new... First off, my exhaust went, so quick phonecall to Ktec where an order was placed for a Supersport Recessed Exhaust. Arrived the next day...

Just received my panel filter from K-tec (along with a few other bits) Ordered it to replace the standard one, as im starting to collect bits ready to do a service on the 172. On the website it says better fuel economy, but is this the case? I want to know before I fit it as I dont want...

As above, rear brake pads/discs need replacing on my 172. Been looking at this: http://k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=1574&appid=2 or these: http://k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2969&appid=2 But whats the difference? One comes with Ultimax pads.. Any good? And the other comes with...

Fitted my new Ktec Recessed Supersport exhaust yesterday.. Wasnt planning on having an exhaust on the car, but the current one started blowing like a b**ch and I hear that Renault like you to bend over for a replacement :dapprove: ... So £330 and a thinner wallet later came this: Only problem...

a clio 1.5 dci 53 plate? I am currently selling my vmaxx coilovers on ebay, and someone has asked if they will fit the above. They are 58mm bolt spacing! (Came off my 1.2 16v 2003 Clio) Any help would be great!

As above... My current exhaust is blowing like a b*****d, so ive just ordered the ktec supersport recessed exhaust (with carbon trim) and was wondering if it is hard to fit? Ive rung a couple of my local garages and they wont touch it because it will involve cutting into the bumper :S Will...

Ive had the car for about 3 weeks now... Absolutely loving the downgrade. I know its nothing compared to a 1.2 but im still loving it :rasp: Couple of changes have been made in that time! Heres how it was when I bought it: First "mod" was my CS +10BHP sticker: Then courtesy of DrG on...

Currently with Admiral... Online on comparethemeerkat.com I got a quote from them 2 weeks ago at £1375 fully comp. Today my renewal letter came through the post. £2400 I actually LOL'd a bit ! :lolup: Rung them up and they moved it down to £1550, but its still not as cheap as online :S...

Just wondering whether my coilovers would fit a 172 Cup? Mine were on my 1.2 16v Clio. They are Vmaxx Adjustable coilovers with 58mm bolt spacing (which i think is what is advertised to fit the sport models). Any info would be great! Thanks :cool:

2 things i need your opinions on: 17" OZ F1 Replica alloys One of the alloys is buckled, but as far as im aware, the other 3 are fine! very slight curbing on 2 of the alloys and budget tyres with a decent amount of tread on all 4 wheels. Came with the car, but im buying some standard 172...

How on earth do these things work?? I cant work it out for the life of me.. I may just be being stupid, ive read the user manual and it doesnt seem to be working! :S

Went from this: 1.2 16v 53 plate Clio... To this :D : 52 plate, Clio 172 on 43k with factory fitted sat nav :approve: BTW, ignore how the suspension looks, its just how cars sit on the top of my drive! Im in love.....

Got my Clio 172 on tuesday, with the factory fitted sat nav... Was just wondering, can you update it so that it has a more modern look to it (the maps are very basic and im guessing very outdated)? You cant even type in a postcode, you have to input the adress... I know it has a thing in the...

Bought my 172 yesterday. On the way home I noticed that the car was drifting to the left and the steering wheel was shaking at high speeds (like 50+).. Went down to my local tyre place this morning, had the tracking done, and told them to balance the wheels... Found out one of the wheels is...
