polish
autosol

yeah, bodyshops spraying the cover arctic blue and putting the 2.0 16v on in vinyl for £40 ish
will drop it in...
think the bixenons are used on H4 conversion kits which use one bulb to do both diped and main beam.. the normal h4 conversion kits have xenon dipped and a halogen main stuck onto the one H4 fitment holder. bi xenon have xenon dipped and main
h4 are either on diped.. or main (dipped switches...
dropping the cover in on monday to be done.
bodyshop bloke said about 40 quid to spray it arctic blue and put the 2.0l 16v back on in white and yellow sticker.
i did it with it left on yeah.. metal fillings in the engine.. erm how?
if there was anyway for the engine to get metal fillings in it.. then how come it doesnt spurt oil out that gap? or suck air in that gap? rain? dust? dirt?
im not polishing the top bit under the renaultsport writing, just the 4 'tubes' that can be seen through the cover.
wet n dry and lots of elbow grease, autosol, and super resin.
sister just came round in her clio (52 regd 1.2 16v)
when driving, its not pulling at all.. powers dead.
and the light is on the dash that has a square with a zig zag in, then a coil underneath it
its the diesel pre heating light / electronic system warning light
any ideas what it...
took a couple of photos after a while...
did a bit more and put the cover on to see where i need to concentrate
now we getting somewhere
hmm, still needs a bit of work at the bottom of the 'tubes'
but it was getting dark so packed everything up..
here's how she is at...
