cool looks like they came out well :)

cheers for the comments about the work so far people! g_timms21 - easy to fit and its better if you have the 172 arch liners, but with mine that low, i dont run any at all

yeah probably going to ditch the abs so hopefully

Missed out something in my last post, finally got round to spraying all the interior bits and bobs, and re-doing the stonechipped from badge :)

yeah with a black and decker sanding mouse thing, so much easier than wet and dry, then used alot of high build primer over a few days so it fully settled, then paint, then laquer

i was just really rough with pulling them off to be honest, it takes alot to break them i think, i was pulling them very very hard from one side and they all came out :)

because im only 18 :p well 19 in 10 days....plus its going to be converted before FCS, so technically it will be a 172.........i could have bought one, but thats no fun, and you only live once ;)

Got a whole pile of stuff waiting to go on the car now.... 172 Brakes, custom brackets are currently being made... An alarm from a 172...What fun this will be to fit... Rear Strut Brace/Harness Bar, currently being powdercoated, and RenaultSport sill strips... More to come soon...........

MOT time was fast approaching, and nowhere would test it with it rubbing on full lock, so I had to raise the car up 50mm :( Passed first time :) So back down it went... A Day later i was told my sidestrips and bumper were ready (5 Months after giving them to be done)...so went and got those...

A few days later, I got my new bumper and sidestrips back after a lengthy delay, which was a long story. They turned out to be the complete wrong color, so they were sent back to be resprayed... After lowering the front of the car more, and realising that the rear would not go any lower...

Just after FCS, I put a RS Steering Wheel on, and saw a pair of sparco bucket seats on eBay for cheap, decided to get them and strip the car out. Removed all the back seats and carpet. First of all i was going to go with some Cobra Extra Low Subframes, but I found out quite a bit of...

Took my Superleggeras off and sent them to Lap-Tab in Birmingham for a refurb, so I went back to the 15's for a short while again... Time was close to FCS, so I started tidying the car up, getting dents removed, painting the drums: Fitting Strut Brace: Took a trip to ProSpeed in...

Middo painted me some custom badges, color coded to the car with silver writing :) So i decided to DIY color code my side strips, they came out pretty well! Another month went by and I got bored of the height yet again, but why shouldnt I make full use of the coilovers? So I went...

Thought I may aswell start a project thread as alot changes on my car, and I get quite a few pm's asking the same questions alot of the time, so hopefully having most of the info here will help people :) I bought the car in March 2006, 54Plate 1.2 16v Dynamique... First few mods were RS...
