Its on a maybe to-do list, if not it'll be a case of either carbon wrapping, or colour coding the standard item. As above, either CC, carbon wrap or put a ph2 boot on. I really think its a very worth while mod, it looks so much better in the flesh or in a well taken photo than it does in my...

^^ Join the club mate Ph1 lights look SO good when they're clean.

Good on ya cracking on, if it makes it a better car, then it wasn't as bad as it could have been :) At least if its all put back fresh it elimates any corrosion/worn wiring problems for a while. :)

Very cheap, brake discs are a tenner?

I could alway try having a head on crash? Front end may look similar then? ;) I didn't like the 197 badge until I saw one on steve's ph2 this weekend, looks better than in pictures, is much smaller than the original and tidies up the rear end.

Any reason Gaz??? I'm going to need new brakes in around 5k and would like to be clue'd up before then. Everyone seems to have such different opinions on pads its unreal!!!

I remember seeing that, still unsure whether to go standard or aftermarket :(

High Five!

Nice little motors these, my mate has one and is looking for a another one (mint one this time) Where's the best place to look? Love the colour of yours.

Its an espace airbox, not a clio one, but its the espace that is regarded as being the best, and according to tuner testing, having a CAF inplace with the v6 box makes as near as no difference, so take it out. It natrually feeds from the gap next to the battery, so doesn't really need a feed.

I could have had a RSI one for a good price, but chose not to for some reason? lol! I think the re-trim's you can get off here are well worth it tbh, so either that, or an OMP leather wheel, will be happening now....

Google translator is working brilliantly mate :) Thanks for the positive comment I think what you dislike, is what I like the most, I like It widen's/butch's up the rear end of the car, although I do think it now needs the 197 RS badge.... all in good time, cash money does not come easy!

Cheers mate, I love it, really think it makes a difference to the rear of the car, and makes the ph2 rear bumper look much more at home :)

I'll comment now, as your opening post looks very promising, with the sport interior etc, and your use of paragraphs and grammar, but then the car scared me a bit, definately not to my taste, then your next post put me in the right place again, sounds like the plans for the car are good, leave...

Bloody loved it with the anth 2118's, those with the crabon diamon would be spot on IMO. The seats were utter p**n, can't believe you got rid. IMO you got rid of the best two parts of the car :( Still looks very nice though, just not amazing.

A re-trim can be had for around £100, making it look better than new (IMO) or you can buy a nice aftermarket wheels, but in most cases you lose the airbag.

The ph2 handles are on the back of the seat too, the ones to lean it forward. Or that could just be 182 seats? The lad above was right though, and unless the seats are totally MINT I'd say £129 was a bit high, Whole sets often go on here for around 120-150

Does look silly low, but tbh I think a lot of people are jealous they couldn't get theirs that low :rasp: Kudos for using it every day and having it that low. Nuts.

I couldnt agree more Chris, check out my latest thread for proof ;)

But you've left the wholes? :( Get the new RS badge, the one off the 197! Much nicer!

Looks very good that does mate, where's the RS badges though? Do like the black ones :)

Very nice and subtle mate, not a fan of the spoiler, but the rest is good.

Ok so an update to the project... attended my first meet with the 172 on Saturday, good to meet some more members and catch up with people.... A quick pic from the meet: And a nice wide arch pic from after the meet... Tonight I also managed to get my cup spoiler fitted, something I've...

Cheers mate, I think Clart must have a thorn stuck in his japseye or something tbh? ;) LOL, Well as many will tell you, I'm pretty much the anti purist, I love the ph1.5 look. Ph1 front end is epic, the rest of the ph2 is better, IMO of course. P.s do the photos work properly now?

Srs? Coming from the guy who put a whole ph2 dash in his ph1??? ;) Cheers for all the feedback chaps, as for the 172 spoiler flowing with the roof, I do agree, but I think the cup spoiler is much sportier. :)

Photobucket is having a bit of an error day, if you press CTRL + F5 it should fix the pics... LOL! Sorry :o Links are all fixed now, so photos should be right.

Cup spoiler :P

So we have the face-lift models, but I've given my Ph1 an ass lift, I finally finished it off today with the addition of a cup spoiler :) Hope ya'll like, quite frankly, I bloody love it. Original Look Before Spoiler After

I found (only last night infact) that certain types of shoes are awful for it, and others, I have no issues. Going to the gym last night in gym shoes (nike running shoes) I came out and it was raining, I've owned the car a month and never slipped, but last night on the way home slipped several...

I loved Middo's Ph1, it really showed what could be done to a ph1 to make it look at the top of its game IMO. I haven't since seen a sunflower clio that I thought looked anything special, but if anyone gets one looking like that ^^^ I'll be impressed.
