Don't actually have any 'before' pictures of my Clio.. but it ended up pretty much as it started out (other than a PH3 front end instead of PH2) - so here's one from my For Sale thread:

And the during/after/interesting period:

The switch for my lights on the right hand stalk now does a full 360degree spin - it's quite the lottery as to when any lights come on... Quite exciting actually, especially when you're late for work FFS!
It has no interior/doesn't weigh a lot and it's got massive flared arches with small wheels - of course it's going to look high!
On the plus side, it handles and rides amazingly!
Lol! Flared arches and near standard ride height are a recipe for a rally car TBH.
I will be having a go at un-seizing the coilovers soon, then if it's still not low enough I'll get some shorter Faulkner springs made up. It'll be reet.
Still not sure on what to do with the wheels... I love...

LOL they're old, it's bound to happen. Ordered a gearstick extender and one of these:

Meant to be great!
Been thinking about pinching the head off RACKs old engine and building it... Maybe too much work...
No, nothing makes any sort of noise. I reckon its the stalks. Just had to drive half way to work with no lights (full beams on + light left foot braking) due to the stalks. FML.
Just drove it home again... Everything SEEMS to be fine. Touch wood.
Having an LSD makes it feel like its got too much power in even second gear :o Steps out all over the place! Hilarious fun :D
