get them on ebay, or from gsfcarparts.com, or try euro car parts.
or try j3ned, (mailto:matt@specialistrenaultbreakers">matt@specialistrenaultbreakers)
a respray in black will cost more than having the new parts sprayed etc, plus are all of the new bits off of the same car ??
otherwise the paint may vary slightly in colour, even though they may be the same paint colour, they could be different shades.
If it was me id just get the new bits...
colour coding tends to look nicer than just plain balck strips etc, plus they still give the car protection against other car doors etc.
if they were smoothed they would offer no protection at all.
Plus removing them & smoothing costs more.
maybe the owner was too ashamed to come on here say it their car.
i would be too, if owned a car which looked like that.
unless the dude who posted it up is actually the owner ?
Guess what, im not a fan of it at all.
true, i just dont see the point though thats all.
plus all of the 18 yr olds round my way all seem to drive black 172s - shame none of them are actually a 172 !
dude, some one nicked your number plates !
;)
seriously, it looks nice, does that screen detatch or something??
oterwise it would last about 5 minutes till some little scrote saw it & decided it wolud look better on their moped.
I will never understand why people badge up their cars to make them something they are not.
I bet it still has drums not the back too ???
if so thats a dead give away, plus it hasnt got all of the other RS bits on it.
my exhaust on my valver was standard (as was the rest of the car) but when i hit the accelerator it sounded lovely (esp when it came on cam) it wasnt that quiet.
when the car was sat there just ticking over, it sounded good, it had a slight rumble to it, it wasnt loud though.
looking good, one thing is though im not a fan of turbines.
i think that they are one of the worst sets of wheels renault ever produced (nothing personal to ya though mate)
thats alright, get a silver cup !!
The only thing i dont like on cups are the seats. Also i wasnt aware that they had a/c (i knew climate was an option) just never new about air con as standard.
can you contest it ??
my mate got £2000 for whiplash, plus my mate (the passenger) who whacked his head on the windscreen (the doghnut wernt wearing a seatbelt) he got £800
the door strips on them look proper wrong !!
they look well out of place, plus that rear wing looks like it belongs on a nova down southend.
the silver one with the white wheels in the second pic looks ok.
true, most of the cups on there are 172s, certain things in the ads give it away, such as zenon lights & leather interior etc,
plus the colour of them as well (since when did cups come in monaco blue !! like some of them on there)
i had an aoptional £250.00 excess on my valver (the total was £450.00 !!!)
the insurance was only £416.00 f/c on it !!
the £200.00 charge is standard, im 24 btw, but when you 25 the excess goes down any way (that was with elephant though, admiral may be a bit different)
not really that good a pic, but its 100% standard
