i wouldnt mind gettin some detriot f1s refurbed black with a polished lip, saw it on a silver, decked 206 a lil while back and looked awesome, problem is i dont think the wheels come to fit a 172, and secondly there pretty heavy so ill prob get some super legs or turinis!
k tec are doing one to fit the 172, but was thinkin of gettin a custom de cat powerflow one, sure ive seen a mk1 172 on here that had duplex exhausts, but further apart than a normal 182
Will a 182 style exhaust on a 172 affect performance at all (i cant see it would as otherwise why fit to a 182!).........i dont mean improve it, i mean lower it as it has 2 exits instead of the usual one.......i cant seem to get my head round this, as someone mentioned something about it the...
Hi, lookin very shortly at gettin my mk1 172 and want to strip it out, fit a half show cage and whack in some konig recliners, havent really seen many 172/182s with cages on here, pics would be greatly appreciated, also any tidy interior pics as well for inspiration!
ta in advance
yeah d:class did do the interior but thats all alcantara and leather.......and its some fibreglassing id be after..........just need to know costs really!
Anyone know of any online shops/websites that cater for the 172, except k-tec, hill power and BB tuning.
Also is there any good foreign sites that are worth a look
cheers all
yeah i am mate, why are you??
K did his own car fella........he owns Xquisite Automotive formally Type K Styling......a lot of my mates cars are going to in there over the winter, and ones in there now, so ill def be speaking to him sooner or later.......i want some exterior work done as soon...
One of my mates has it his 206.......and its really not as shiny as you think....his was stupidly expensive tho as it was done at ecosse with the rest of the car!
Hi, just wondered if anyone had a rough idea of how much it would cost to spray a dashboard and doorcards in a 172......ideally id want them smoothed and then sprayed.......so surely this would include fibreglassing.
has anyone done this before? and if so has pics??
cheers in advance!
personally i dont like the kit as a whole, sayin that tho the front is really nice and the paint and workmanship, from what i can see is a1!
where abouts u get the headlights from??
they the new k tec ones?
Hi, ive noticed a few people with mk1 silver 172s, have got colour coded bump strips....am i right in thinkin these are from renault off a newer 172??
if so, has anyone got the part number please?
that aint too bad at all.........def worth considerin, i originally had only thought about decat, 182 manifold, viper and ecu......did the cams give a big increase??
sorry for all the questions, just tryin to get as much information as possible!
oh yeah....i saw this thing go at fcs and it flew, pure street sleeper!!!
gotta love it!!
did you have no other engine work apart from I/K and nitrous for you sub 14 1/4s, or was there remap and new exhaust system as well?
So anyone done this then.....if so who did you go to, what spec is the kit, and how much?
questions, questions, questions i know.....but just after some info!
pics would be gd to please!
cheers in advance
ive found a few round my area (south east) for between 4.5-6k.....found a mint looking one other day with 2001 plate, 17k on the clock, fsh, and 1 lady owner (suposedly!) for 5200!!
I need some more up for sale like that, come oct time!!
Thats a lovely motor mate, but im not really lookin to buy until sept/oct time due to funding!!
Also ideally i want a completely standard motor that i can make my own!
Hi, im after a mk1 172 or a mk2 cup round the end of sept early october and want to start planning subtle changes to it, already decided on colour coded rub strips, some fks, and either superlegs or turinis, now want to sort out the front end.......just wondered if people could post pics of...
oh sorry my bad....i read the post as you already had the equitment and wanted an install and not as you need everything.....youve gotta understand tho his is a pure out and out show car, thats why he has the audiobahn for the bling i think

There is only one place mate and thats decibels in billericay.....my mate had his audiobahn install done for his 206 show car and it looks awesome, around 1500 as well, and this was for full fibreglassin for 4 subs, so its not going to cost half as near as that for 1!!
Hi, just wondered if anyone knew of any places that would produce carbon skins for bits of my forthcoming car??
All help would be very greatly appreciated!
