    What sounds better to insurance companies?

    "I'm changing the suspension" then tell them how much it will lower it if they want to know. At the end of the ay your just a tick in a box either suspension modifications or 60mm+ drop ec they don't care.

    fitting a 172 cup Bumper to my 06 1.2 16v

    Front or rear bumper. Front can be made to fit but body shop is the best place. The only way its a direct fit is if you chnage the liners plus the wings and then idealy add the side skirts to make it look right. Rear fits fine.

    172 rear shocks

    No point shocks arn't to be used to stop rubbing thats springs jobs. I take it you have Gax fronts then? If so I'd chnage the whole lot personally Gaz shocks are dreadful might as well IMO bight the bullet and buy some decient stuff ride would be so much better.

    Renault meets Ford

    The 5 pot engine not that small would be a tight fit in the Clio as its a wide engine. 290hp can be done with a VAG engine and a remap (use the big tiurbo 225/210 models though) thats a better root to go down as there more bits for it.

    172 rear shocks

    Usless you have different front ones don't bother with uprated rear ones. Bilstein do a replacment set for about £90 for the rears but Renault are about the same price by a few quid and I'd use stock Renault bilstein havn't impressed me I think stock are better.

    Warranty Issue

    Its difficult o say if its warently or not as Warently wouldn't cover it however under the EU laws stating all products should be suitable for use and since it breaks so commonly then you could well argue its not fit for purpose. I'd just forget it buy another one not that much and fit it...
