    20mm Hubcentric spacer - what shorter wheel bolt length?

    Hmm, mine pokes out the back of the steel spacer insert but not out of the spacer Your flamer looks sublime, never a fan of the colour till I say your avatar.

    Zara - Gloss anthracite wrap on a 182FF

    Still a few things to do like the rear lights and tints, the bodywork underneath could have been a bit less ripply (paint stripper attack which ate the plastic). Will probably replace a couple of panels, definitely the NS wing. It's difficult convincing some people that it isn't paint! The...

    Rear hub spacers help

    H&R 20mm with a 205/50/r15 tyres on an ET48.5 rim, I got scared and went a bit conservative. They might see the track now and again but this Clio is being mostly retired now that the turbo is in the garage. I wouldn't hesitate to run them on track though, if I was I reckon I would probably go...

    Rear hub spacers help

    I've had a bit of a search and couldn't find anything. In order to install rear hub spacers that require longer bolts, the type Dan @ M.A.D. sells, do you have to remove the rear disc/bearing? Any tips would be great! I was going to start this tonight but got scared and just did the front...

    Undressing Zara the 182

    It's getting done at DBS Autotech in Welwyn Garden City, I checked out them and one other place before hand. The other place seemed really sketchy in comparison while these guys seem to strip the car down quite a bit and were just a lot more professional in general. It's costing me a grand...

    I have no idea but they're disgusting! Unfortunately probably going to haunt me for another month due to exams :( To clarify, the calipers will go black to hide their ugliness!

    I reckon you'll be fine with tyre gunk alone. 700 motorway miles isn't a huge amount, do you have breakdown cover?

    I wish they treated CAT/DECATs this way! But I suppose the engine is still there ;)

    Driving In Limp Mode...Is It Safe??

    My car did it a lot before I sorted the throttle body, scary as f**k when your trying to pull across round abouts. I would just clear engine warnings every time it came on.

    Just got the wheels back I'm really happy with the finish, shame I have to go back and get one of the rotations switched round :(

    Need a new BG 182 bumper :(

    Try the classifieds, I believe there's a BG182 being broken at the moment.

    Anyone seen a nice example for sale at a good price?

    Honestly the best £12 you can spend if you own a clip sport! You can make it back on discounts with stuff like oil fairly quickly!

    Few bits coming together now, just went to pick the wheels up but they they'd just come out the oven so I'll grab them tomorrow. I'll say one thing though, they looking bloody amazing! Really dark glossy anthracite, google hyper black and you'll get some idea. Just really annoyed with myself...

    Clio 4 RS VS Fiesta ST EcoBoost

    Sounds promising with this line "The old front-drive intransigence is gone; on cold tyres, a cold surface and with the ESP switched off, abrupt lift will require opposite lock" Looks lively enough in this clip! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-KempOrImw
