just different time of day plus the first one was when it was clean, now its all dirty.
yeah the sports badge was also put on by the previous owner i think he was a bit of a chav as he had fitted ripspeed treadplates on the doorsills too but i ripped them out as they looked shite. dont think...
today i jiggled with the exhaust to make it fit better, just as well i had made the brackets adjustable. its a lot better now as before the right tailpipe was too close to the bumper
before
after
and also painted the gay chrome washer jets put on by the previous owner the same colour as...
as some of you know i made a 182 style exhaust for my car, i went for drive yesterday for about 45 minutes and when i got back i checked the exhaust / bumper. everything was fine but the rear bumper was a little warm on the left handside, it hadnt melted though. i was just wondering whether...
im not sure if anyone has done a carbon roof i was playing with my car on PS the other day and came up with the idea (see other thread). i think it could look awesome.

and i shouldnt have done as i think it looks ace but would be well expensive. i made the roof and spoiler carbon fibre and added an elf sticker. anyone actually got any pics of a clio with a carbon roof
cheers buddy, im still undecided too mate but seeing as i bought them i though i may as well give them a try, i thought they might help tie in the black/silver theme, not sure
made some changes to mine
i made a custom 182 style exhaust, fitted side skirts and 182 rear bumper. also i tried some with the 182 style stripe on the bonnet as i got them cheap off ebay, still unsure about the stripe but can always take it off. gay chrome washer jet put on by the previous...
my bro is now getting a clio too and i wanted to show him some pics of 2 members cars but couldnt find them
1. a black non sport mk2 ph2 slammed on silver ultra leggras
2. dark red metallic non sport mk2 ph2 on anthracite 182 wheels, sports grill and colour code, possibly lowered 35mm
if you...
17's with 40 profile tyres will be only a tiny bit bigger than 15's with the standard tyre (think its a 55 profile) you can go down 60 without it rubbing but the splitter on the front may catch on speed bumps, also most 60mm springs for the 1.2 seem to be the apex ones which are really hard so...
flow isnt too bad it comes out of both pipes, slightly more out of the first one but that is to be expected as the gas will take the easier route out of the system and there isnt a divider
cool mate, do you mean redoing the whole exhaust or just replacing the standard cat back with a...
cheers buddy, yeah the tubing is square so the ends of the tailpipe can be welded on to a flat surface rather than having to drill through the side of a cyclinder. its made like this, maybe not the best for performance but it works, its cheap and its a 1.2 so not really that the performance is...
i tried out the 182 stripes this morning and also painted the shite chrome washer jets put on by the previous owner in the same paint as my wheels. (only after pic is the last one)
i am still undecided on the stripes so i only have put them on the bonnet, if i change my mind i can just pull...
echeers guys :)
there isnt much to do on the exterior, i just need to finish PCing the car and finish off a few loose ends such as applying a bit more glue to one small section on one of the sideskirts. and also repainting part of the rear bumper where i took the paint off by dropping the mig...
if you have to get it mixed up use www.auto-paint.co.uk just give them your paint code and its a better match, the spray cans are better and cheaper too
haha lol cheers buddy, it was the first time i had really done any welding too. i just practised a bit first. it was a bit tricky but turned out ok and it works properly without blowing
i made it from scratch mate, i bought two tail pipes from here

i finished off the exhaust today and i have to say i am pretty pleased with it. it cost me about £40 to make, rather than £450 to get one made. i need to lower the right side abit but thats not an issue as i made adjustable brackets. one thing which is rubbish though is i took a chunk out the...
yep the megs#84 is what i have just got
http://www.autobritedirect.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=265_271&products_id=1869
bargain price for the quantity tbh
dont use t cut there some much better products out there.
i have just bought some meguiars 84, its quite a strong cutting compound but works pretty well. see my details thread i posted up.
i also managed to buy a gallon bottle for £17 which is pretty good as most places sell the 250ml bottles...
