makes a huge difference getting it re-gassed... even if you think the aircon's cold, its so much colder when re-gassed!

excuse me?

Laughing my arse off.

lmao!

well yes, you do... as did I with my insurance even though my car came with both cup packs as standard. Red lowering springs will be more noticeable than a subtle cup spoiler though...

he's better than me... pick on him instead ;)

lol @ all the PM requests coming in.

of course they would. Insurance assessors are paid to do such things!

shall be on the car as soon as i have time... possibly over the weekend. would rather make sure the laquer has fully cured before putting them on.

its easy to rub the Eibach logo off pro springs... they're black too. read into that what you will.

whats the best thing to protect fresh laquer with Rich?

Peugeot Cossack Grey as close to the 182 wheel colour as i could find.

just gave them a final Scratch X, polish and wax.... came up even better now :)

read up there ^^ Middo advised to just paint the Inferno straight onto the anthracite, but that didnt work as Inferno needs a white base coat for the colour to work properly. So I had to do the anthracite, then primer the letters only in white, then paint them inferno. Was a nightmare but...

they were my inspiration mate...thanks! I really wanted to get a factory finish rather than ones that look hand painted.

Genuine Renault D38 touch up kit... got it free with the car! :)

I didnt take 'during' photos, but yeah there will be a guide up. Im doing another set soon enough for someone else so will take during photo's then for the guide.

not really, no lol. They needed a white base to the writing before the Inferno colour really came through. Process: Buy badges off ebay = £20.03 Thorough clean and sand using 1200 grit Primer, sand, primer, sand Anthracite base coat, dry for 24 hours sand Anthracite base coat, dry for 24...

Final coat of laquer has just dried... they need 24hrs to cure before being fitted to the car. Turned out quite nice, anthracite badges with Inferno writing.

im more than happy with my clio... i'll trade it in when i can afford a decent S2 Elise.

sounds good... i'd have one.

just finishing it all off today. Already have the dash trims done.

Haha, obviously ;)

:approve:

in Inferno? sure.

oh dear, been clipped? i wouldnt trust myself doing a mirror cover... well not someone elses anyway.

mine's the version with the center silencer. its subtle. It a nice compromise between a sporty sounding exhaust without being obtrusive. +3 BHP gain. Perfect.

if i actually had to pay for a new exhaust, it would have to be a BTB, followed by a Prospeed.

pay for the paint, and sure!

correct! I wish I didn't, trust me! lol
