hey guys, basically i have a fair few parts that require painting and rather than sending them all to a bodyshop which will be expensive im thinking about buying an air compressor and paint gun. i have done a fair amount of body work / wheel refurbs before so im not worried about the painting...
on the 182 bumper about a 1 cm out from the cut out there are 3 slits, one at the top and one either side, this is because the surround clips into it.
you could however just cut the tabs off the surround and glue it in place mate
or you could do it yourself mate and it would cost about £40 for all the wheels, there is a guide i wrote in the how to section. its not that hard just time consuming
i got one on ebay but royal mail lost it :( in the end i just went to renault only took 24hours to order it in.

RS 172/182 grill
part Number 6000073772
its not that hard mate just time consuming, there is a guide in the how to section.
looks like youve done a good job buddy, how many coats of paint/laquer did you do, just the final pic they look a little flat like they need more laquer but it could just be the pic
i just got this off ebay, it seemed a good price, it hasnt arrived yet but il let you know if its worth the money

all the cars look awesome, as do the pics
foxy how much did it cost to get your rear bumper painted to match your car. just ive gotta have mine done so a rough idea of price would be good
lol, if i remember correctly the rudeboy edition is fitted with an ebay 99p resistor and one of those electronic supercharger kits (which is really just a pc fan and an open filter induction kit). this ups the horsepower by 200bhp, and this is increased futher to 250bhp,when he drives with his...

you dont even need to bolt it down, if you build a raise false floor the amp can sit under it and it will hold the sub box in place
my brother and i made one for his saxo, it can be made with or without the window depending on whether you want you amp visable
you can get the canon ixus 75 on amazon for £133.99 which is what my brother recently got. he wanted a small camera for taking on nights out. the image quality for a point and shoot is excellent

loads of other sites do them as well.
yeah it should make a difference as it should stop warm from the engine entering the filter. if you wanted even more cold are you could run some cold air feed...
its your car buddy, do what you want to do to it.
im in the same boat as you mate, im doing a part replica mainly because i dont use my car other than to get to uni twice a week and most of that is sat in traffic. there is no point having a 2.0 if you not moving anywhere. dont get me wrong i...
ok heres mine, its a bit rubbish to be honest as i only spent about 20 minutes on it. getting a decent colour match was hard as the side of the car is very contrasty but mine will do for now
you can mod th 182 bumper to fit the standard arches mate this means you wont need to by new wings, wheel archliners or official sideskirts. it means you can aftermarket sport replica skirts which are cheaper and as you havent changed the wings there are less parts to paint. i was also told by...
its quite easy mate, first go filters>stylize>find edges. it will then give you an outline but in wierd neon colours, make the image black and white (ctrl, shift, U) this will make the car white with black outlines. to make it work as a blue print the lines need to be white so invert the image...
