Took the clio to Devon over the weekend and snaped this quick shot of the car with friends on board. I had a bit of a play with the image and quite liked it, so thought I'd share it!

Oh fo' sho'. That? That's "f**k that!" Nicely done though winston, looking forward to the progress :)

If memory serves me correctly, the 1*2s are prone to whistling now and again. I seem to remember coming across a thread some time ago with discussion on this. Have a search and see what you can find but I shouldn't be too worried.

Thank's Deb. Coming from someone with a car like yours, that is a true compliment.

Good point. Although, that requires someone standing there and filming me and my friends wouldn't understand enough to want to do it :( I'll see what I can do over the coming week with a camera on the pavement job? No Flamer is horrible! Gutting about the damage though chap.

Have you gotten round to doing anything under the bonnet at all?

It's the new style racing stripe don't ya' know ;)

Just don't.

Not the greatests video but....

Be my guest, seriously! Words fail me, Al ;)

Good work :)

Gaz - The wheels are powdercoated gloss black. Badges and bullets and wing mirror covers are a Halfords gloss black, out of a can.

So the decat will be fine with a standard system. Can't justify a new set up but that price for a decat is a-okay :D

I know what you mean... Oddly, I think it may look better with a battery cover but I just cant decide on one I like. I'm also not prepared to spend the money on a new one. Terribly overpriced really!

That means a lot Paul, thank you! PM on it's way to you now.

You don't like the front plate, or you don't like the front plate because technically it's illegal?

It's a toughy. I genuinly love the 5-spokes! They just seem to add to the 'beefyness' of the thing.

Count me in.

Good work Jack :D

I used a simple gloss black spray can from Halfords. Anything will do to be honest so long as it has a high temperature threshold.

Thanks for the comments chaps. The Simota Carbon Aero is a beast to be honest. It really does turn heads. Engine bay is cleaned with a bristle brush thingy, fairy liquid and some elbow grease! White spirit is also good on things like the induction elbow.

Continuing the theme, I sprayed up a set of wing mirror covers and the engine cover. I also gave the CAF trumpet a lick of paint and started on the engine cover bolts but rain stopped play. Personally, I love the look that the wing mirrors give. The engine cover will need to be redone but you...

Let's save this poor chap from it all and bump the amphasite thread!

Why is that 'laugh out loud' funny? EDIT: Have just seen above post ;) The trouble is, people on here will actually believe that amphasite is correctly spelt.

Where has this amphasite word come from all of a sudden? I've seen it being used quite a lot on here recently. Google it - seven results. It's anthracite, which litterally means 'a type of coal'.

Very nice. What's this Lamin-X stuff then?

Honestly, just grab the bump strips in any colour you can and have them sprayed up. If you sourced a rear bumper at the same time, a body shop should be able to do you a price that'd be chaper than having them done on seperate occasions.

I wouldnt have said so. The rear pads hardly get as much use as the fronts so as long as you at least have something, you're fine.
