I've had these photos on my phone for ages now but I've only just got around to sorting them out. I'd recently cleaned the car and managed to finish work early so I thought I'd go out and try to get some nice photos while the sun was still out. Please note, I've removed the mudflaps since the...

Looking good matey! :) The cup spoiler makes the back end look a lot beefier :D

Ah right, let you off then ;)

No worries matey. If you got the wheels lathed professionally then it'd be fine. It's not something I'd want to be doing myself as they've got to be perfect! I've got to agree with Tom though, you will get in trouble if you leave them sticking out that far :/

Hi mate, I've just had a look through your project thread with regards to the Rota's. These wheels are a real pain to fit! The lad I bought my Rota Grid Drift's from had already had them lathed. I couldn't tell you how much by or anything though :/ Luckily my front wheels fitted fine...

There's a guy in Woodhouse if that's any good to you. Might be a bit far depending where in Notts you are though.

True! I guess the only thing to do is try it. I bought a sports cat when I first got the car to get it through it's MOT but have never actually put it on.

Looks awesome mate. I'd definitely put the f1's on! i think the only thing this car needs now are some clear indicators :)

Really? Compared to a decat? :dapprove:

I have the pops and bangs map on my car at the moment but it's no where near as loud as that video! It usually does a few little pops but very rarely makes a loud bang unless I let off from 4.5K in 2nd gear. Thinking of putting the 98RON map back on and fitting a sports cat instead of the...

Ha, good one! Just buy a real 172 after you've had the 1.2 for a year or so.

I quite like the silver carbon. Brightens up the interior a bit compared to the normal black carbon. Have a look through my project thread - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?613699-Danman-s-Mk2-1-6 It was the same colour as your car so you might find a few ideas you like. I won't...

This thread has brightened up my day. Putting your CS sticker in the wrong place?? It was a good job I was already sat down!

You'll be fine without the clips mate. When I bought a cup spoiler it had several pink clips bonded on. I snapped them off as it fitted better without them lol. I think they're just there to help line up the screw holes.

Would look better if the back of the plate was wrapped blue as well so it wasn't as noticeable.

Looks good mate! You could do with one of these next ;) You position the plate in the normal place and cut a slit out of the top of the lower grill so it folds away there instead of at the bottom for a more oem look.

Some people have had their wheels lathed to avoid catching the callipers. The wheels I bought had already had this done but they still caught the rear callipers due to the design of the wheel. I'm not sure about the Grid V's but with the Grid Drifts I still had to take a few mm's off the edge...

I agree with this mate :)

If the little black tabs on the front bumper are missing, it's had a respray. Most at likely due to stone chips but double check for any damage behind it if you can.

No way! :/ I'm gutted for you mate. At least you're okay, that's the main thing! I can't believe how quickly you've brushed it off your shoulder to go out on another track day haha!

Good effort mate :) maybe you could add a cup spoiler on your list of things to do ;)

I guess the owners not on here, he's been spotted before - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?637524-TROPHY-on-low-lane-horsforth-*-55-CCO&highlight=Cco

Haha, all in good time! :p Might stick up a thread in the media section as I took loads of photos of them the other week :)

Ah thanks for the replies. Although Graham's idea sounds easier! ;) Ill have to to keep an eye out for sport handbrakes now.

Hi mate. How easy is it to swap the handbrake button over? It's been something I've fancied doing for a while :)

I had to get one for my old clio mate. Best bet is the scrapyard. Always loads of 1.2 Clio's to choose from :p

Trophy driving past Sutton McDonald's this afternoon. Reg ended in CCO. Silver 172 with tinted windows near spot on snooker. Reg ended in ZRE I think. Not seen either around here before, anyone on here?

Looks like a good spot for photos mate! :)

You know what to do then mate ;) Yeah looks good dude. Really stands out from the normal faded plastic surrounds :)

That carbon wrap looks 100x more realistic than the the stuff I used on my old 1.6. Good job mate :) I especially like the stickers on the back of the bucket seats, like you say, they brighten up the interior a bit :)
