These uber low 'hate bringers' will be on my clio by next week!!!
hate them if you will but im like a kid at christmas!!
cant wait,
and tbh, i think it looks the tits, if the front was the same height.
i may be getting some low rear springs soon,
but im a tad worried about them falling out, is there any way that you can ensure they stay in place??
i was thinking of welding them in, would that be safe??
would you do a striaght swap for some gaz adjustable rear springs?? will adjuster plates so can be adjusted from standard height to abit higher than those??
pm me if you want to try and sort something out.
looking really well, better than it did before the ditch action!
dont suppose youd want to swap your strut brace from an amphasite omp one??
thinking of going for the stripped out back,
but scared about raising the ride height at the back lol
how did stripping yours raise it??
and is...
needs lots of lowering, lots of spacing, and dual optics up front for a start,
perhaps try and get hold of the v6 alloys too,
and paint the bonnet the correct colour.
have you painted the bar in the front grill black??
and if you get the money paint it a proper v6 colour,
fair play for...
:mad::mad: i said NO references to rages old car, lol
well smoothing is on the horizon, probs early new year,
front bumper/non-sport back bumper/bonnet :P
am debating sending the exhaust on a long walk of a short peir lol,
i was tempted by the standard lights too for a bit,
may well be an investment for the near future lol.
thought id get some snaps as winters drawing in there wont be many opertunities to get snaps for a while.
bumped into alex (tucker) while i was out too, so some pics of his 172 will be thrown in also!
Low!
Tuckers clio...
its an inverted torx (femail torx) bit, if you havnt got one, youll have to buy one unfort,
ive added -va camber the same as bifcaids and couzens, just 2-3mm washers under the bottom two bolts of the drum, works fine, just make sure you tighten them up properly.
i was gna comment also on the spoiler, didnt think many lowspec clios came with coded dynamic spoilers,
colour code, eom+ parts, lower and some rims, will look good,
:( and now i feel bad....cheers!!
hope you were ok tho.
seriosuly, if youve been quoted 150, id take it, and sell it before the paint flakes (assuming it would on such a cheap paint job lol)
to anyone serious in buying the car, the correct colour pannels will boost the value of the car...
agreed^^
you really need to make the decision on selling it or not, if so tidy it up, and sell it,
or stick with minting up a ph1 (a decision thats looked down upon by most, but some of us have to keep the ph1 non-sports alive:D)
your in the same picle as me mate,
my car is worth FA to anyone else, its worth more to me as a car, money wise i cannot afford much more, with my college bills. however as its been nicely put, im polishing my turd lol.
as for the condition, i wouldnt say its good, without seeing it i...
pics are in noob section btw,
really hard to tell what its been lowered, especailly if its a rep, the change of weight will change the looks on the same springs,
tbh id assume the worst and get some coilovers, or if you just want the back down, as mentioned, cough up £10 and use the for sale...
so are you looking to sell the car as it is??
despite all the cnutish comments by some i dont really think its worth a great deal as it stand... with the sky high milage and mismatched pannels will fetch about 200-300,
sorting a dent that hasnt scratched/cracked the paint much wont up the...
looks like a nice example, however id save the money from the window tints, they look awfully chavs and horrible imo,
for the money youll spend on tints, you could lower it!! much better mod the for the money.
go for OEM+ parts dude, theyre so much better than anything you get in halfrauds,
i want to speed my computer up abit,
vista seems to imply that its my graphics card thats slowing me down,
however its rather an old motherboard so i believe my options are limited.
iirc its pre pci-e 2.0, and i believe its a x4 slot (if that makes any sence)
atm its got an ATI 9550...
defs get the car colour coded should be top of your list,
and get a proper front bumper and put some fogs in it,
then just get colour coding and itll be a nice little car.
i understand the application of them,
if i wanted to keep my car in showroom condition
(and no it doesnt need to be an expensive car for people to care about it to such an extent)
and i do think they look good on some cars,
and a theme that tends to go along with euro cars, is keeping them...
also, if you want to REALLY get the most of a sub,
each sub will have a specification that its built with in regards to box size,
build your own box to the correct size, instead of the prefab 'off the shelf' boxes.
