This weekend has been quite a good one. Got the bones of a sport kit sorted just need it painted now.

Should have said mate. We would have spent the 2 hours ripping them apart! That jizz on the wing came off easy peasy

Chap who own's it is on here. Bought some wheels off him the other week. The wrap is only a few months old and looks great in the flesh.

first new post in here as Graham! Bought a sport rear bumper last night and took it to the The Bodyshop in Sevenoaks. Run by my friends brother who always does lovely work and will have it done in the week hopefully. £80. He's going to order enough paint for the whole sport kit so when I need...

Update this with your sport kit!

They're off the mk4 aren't then

In the cat C attached to the VIN and the reg or a previous private reg that was on the car and not the vin? FOS, it's the insurers fault for not updating Miaftr when they should have.

Well won't you see that, what a lovely new title, who thought of that? At least I not don't have to type POV into my browser and get a load of other stuff come up as suggested sites. New name?!?! are you saying I have an old mans name (I do and can't wait for wrinkles) or are you saying I...

Re: DCI 65 pov spec commuter OEM+ PM coming your way Alex, I can see a trip to Essex coming on. Dr Jekyll thank you buddy. Let got for something like "Graham's OCD ph2 DCi sport rep" That's fairly accurate I suppose!

Is the immobilser light showing on the dash, solid, flashing or out after the second turn on the key.

Let me know how much you want for your old radio. Got a quote for spraying the sport kit yet? I'm looking at getting some sprayed soon.

Really looks supurb. Your car is probably the only non 182 I've seen 182 alloys on and thought they look the part. Best colour

Re: DCI 65 pov spec commuter OEM+ True mate. I'm not sure how to go about that. Getting a few sport kit pieces very soon. Would like to get the rear bumper done first so the spending is a little incremental.

Silicone bends only means 1 thing.... Those tyrez iz mint to be da ntz like. Were out of my budget, maybe next time

Re: DCI 65 pov spec commuter OEM+ Difficult to keep up with myself at the moment. Stalk should be hear tomorrow, need to turn the UCH off variable intermittent as it thinks it's on ultra quick intermittent at the moment which is annoying. There isn't the option at the moment Alex, it just says...

Looks lovely, makes me more excited to get mine colour coded. How are you planning to sort the drivers bag out? I've got a shagged old seat if you need a pretensioner and airbag. I was planning on blowing it up but don't mind donating!

Re: DCI 65 pov spec commuter OEM+ @chris_pett Thanks mate. You've noticed my trait! Rather do things properly the first time than be even 1% unhappy with the final product. It'll be a full rep one day, just need to find out roughly how much it's going to cost me to get a sport kit sprayed...

All looking good matey. Got the turbo done then. Might do a similar thing to mine in due course as there's a little oil escaping. Need some ceratec, nightmare squeak in traffic. Mirrors are cool, are they heated also?

You can connect them if you want but without having them activated in clip they will not function. As your car has not been fitted with them (due to the five door aspect) then turning them on in the 172 seats is not something I would advise. Renault safety engineers understanding of airbags >...

Ahh good! Rear glass is tinted so the sun shouldn't be a problem. They're just a little too dark, must make checking the blind spot more difficult. Will make the interior a much nice place to be with them off though.

Mirror the above. I'd have silver wheels as at the moment it looks like the caps are from a different set of wheels. Remove the tints and k-tec sticker. Paint the calipers black as other colours loose their vibrancy in less than a week. Gloss black interior trims would look nice I'm sure.

1 - not sure 2 - yes, your car will not have side airbags into the airbag ecu so just leave them unconnected 3 - yes, connector blocks 4 - part of the pretensioning connection Just swap it over and stop flapping. Buy some connector blocks and that's all you'll need. Careful of the rear seat...

@Timmsy your quote seems good mate. There are some good bodyshops down your way. Had a customer down there getting quotes left right and centre once. That's roughly what I'm looking to pay to get a sport kit sprayed I reckon. As has been said though there are a thousand more things that go into...

Sort me out with your painter ;) I'll give a KFC for every panel and even throw in a couple of McDonalds monopoly apple pies for a painted sport kit ;) Car looks good mate. It's nice when all the little mods finally come together to make something look like yours.

Re: DCI 65 pov spec commuter OEM+ Geektalk indeed but that's what I require! Saw an MX5 with spaz out mode on the other day, I didn't have my wipers on it was such a pathetic drizzle....woman. Screen now fitted, ta da Still haven't got the stalk but it's on its way. Pluged into clip it...

it is possible to retrofit anything if you want but you've got to be pretty competant with electronics to do so. There are various relays, the control goes through the ECU. Parts needed would be a new heaterbox, ac rad, all the pipework, assorted bits of wiring and plugs, compressor and bracket...

Cleaned up the earths in front of the battery? Maybe try swapping the ignitors around.

They aren't lower than the metal on the sills, they just cover as you say.

8mm drain plug key Renault oil filter tool Normal socket set, a £40 halfords one is good 16 and 18mm spanner A few torx screw drivers

Your car currently will look like it's got 10mm spacers on each side already then as 172 alloys are et 48.5. If you have a look at my thread your car will be roughly as wide as mine which has sport running gear and 172 alloys. If it were me I would put the kit on, see what it looks like and...
