^^^ They are yellow and you need orange .

It's a W5W . Like this in the pic under the side repeater lens . http://www.body-kit.co.uk/acatalog/info_R-310.html

Not if the colour coat finish is ok . Just apply a few good coats of lacquer now . You only need to sand the top coat or lacquer if the finish isn't perfect . 1200 grit should be ok if you do need to sand , personally i'd go for 1500 or 2000 grit though .

If you go to a place where the guy knows what he's doing he will be able to match pretty much any colour . When i wanted anthracite for my spare wheel i found nobody actually sells it , not even Renault . I left the centre cap with them and he mixed the colour to match the centre cap . Using...

Yeah . I frequently sit there at rev the ass off my car , just to hear the IK noise ;) . Or maybe i acutally drive the car exactly the same as i did when i had the standard airbox and my fuel consumption has gone up due to more air being allowed into the engine and the ecu adjusting the fuel...

^^^ I agree . I've just bought 2 400ml aerosols from a local car parts supplier that mixes paint , they always mix it spot on and only £7.00 a tin . Or try these . I think they mix all the paint for Renault touch up sticks and aerosols . http://www.tradeproducts.co.uk/paint6.htm

Use wd40 .

Just polish it mate . Autoglym super resin polish .

Re: SDV RIP Shame about the car , it looked mint . Glad the guy was ok , looks like he was very lucky and could have been alot worse :eek:

I used to average around 28mpg , now i average around 24 -26 mpg with my k+n cone filter .

Did they not fit em to the ph2 172 and 182's to slow em down a bit ?? Thats what i heard anyway ;)

The guy i've used a few times is a Bosch trained and can run a diagnostic check on any car , even though its a siemens system . Charges £50 . I always thought Renault charged £50 also from what i've read , but i might be wrong . You could try a different Renault garage .

Let me know how you get on . It took him around 30 mins for all 4 dents , the one on the door was in a really bad place . He does seem a bit of a prefectionist . I thought the dent had gone but he could still a little bit . He's got better eyes than me , lol .

I think you'll find the beeswax and oils have alot to do with how long it lasts and the finish as well ;)

^^^ It doesn't say the content in % it just says main ingredients .

^^^ Does it really matter ? A typical wax will only contain around 15 - 20% carnauba . The main constituent is beeswax , candelilla wax and oils, the darker waxes also contain either montan oil or montan wax , the same that is found in shoe polish. Even the so called " better " waxes will only...

Halfords are basically shite unless you want bog standard paint . Your better off talking to a local paint / body part supplier, plus they are usually cheaper .

Well from my point of view . I had a mk 2 172 which i loved . I waited until the mk3 clio came out and didn't like the look of it so i bought a new 182 . Its more or less the same car tbh . Slightly different alcantara finish on the seats than the 172 , no big deal , the obvious differences are...

I wouldn't do it tbh . When you come to sell it might put off some potential buyers . I'd either leave it or polish it .

Its spot on ben . You can't tell there were any dents there :)

You can't go wrong with the xxx hardcore paste wax or the 50/50 , the latter not being as durable . But if you wax it once or twice a month durabilty shouldn't be an issue . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/xxx.htm http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/50-fslash-50.htm

I've had 4 dents removed today for £60 . 2 in the roof , 1 in the drivers door and 1 in the passenger side quarter panel . The 2 in the roof were caused by a neighbours kid throwing a lump of metal over the garden fence , the little b4stard . So he charged them £50 for the roof ;) only a...

Don't know if this is any good ? Might be worth a try it the hard tyres are really causing a problem . http://www.griptyresoftener.com/index.asp

I've got 4 now :( 2 tiny ones on the roof happened the other day , neighbours little b4stard tearaway kids threw a piece of metal over the garden fence . Gettin it sorted tomorrow ( hopefully ) at least the neighbour's paying , gonna get the door and quarter panel dents sorted as well .

The attachement for the shampoo is pretty crap imo . It onlys lasts a short while then its empty . Autoglym shampoo isn't renowned for foaming anyway . This is my favourite shampoo . http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/extrwash.htm Read this , it might be of some help to you ...

It might soften the layer your struggling to buff off . Try it on one panel and see how ya go .

Try putting somemore EGP on a panel at a time and buffing off immediately .

The service light doesn't mean its due for its service . It means there is a problem with the car and as you say the airbag light is on as well so there's your problem . Its usually the wire for the airbag under the passenger seat . Just give it a wiggle and it " should " go off .If that doesn't...

2OO miles and the tyres are 5 years old ? How long ago did you buy tyres ? If you bought them recently i'd be having a word with the tyre supplier .

Seeing your in cardiff , prospeed would be a good choice for exhaust .
