Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Makes sense! My thoughts exactly. You never know what looks good until you try it though :) thinking of getting them a touch darker, but the same colour as standard when I go for powdercoating. Back tyres are on their last legs so I think I'll combine it with a...

s**t the bed, what happened with the Saxo? Clio looks good!

That's clean!

Looks good all white :) not being anal here but the little black bumper stickers would finish off the front end :o

Glad you've finally found one :)

Love the very first shot! 265's are ace.

Looks good but not against the standard inlet.

I wish mine did that!

Looks perfect. Well done :)

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Love it.

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 But it's Nik in the driver's seat :rasp: Was definitely stubborn! Even 40 grit aluminium oxide paper wouldn't shift it. FFS. It's been on a track I'd say 99% of it's life, and it's in excellent condition considering! It's no wonder it made 183bhp relatively...

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Awesome! I think the term is 'driven not detailed'. Never knew that was a pic of #41 Nik! :) I think I'll give CAS a go Mike. What is the finish on that? Just the colour or is there some sort of lacquer too?

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 With the £1 an inch, is that just for the size of the wheel or do they only do the face of it? That's fairly cheap and probably worth the travel!

Headlights? Taillights? Interior?

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Cheers aucky, that's right near my work. How much were yours if you don't mind me asking? PM if you like!

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Aye that's the plan :) anyone have recommendations of a cheap powdercoating place near to Manchester? Yup, not many people change the Trophy so I thought I'd be the first to try out a few new things. All the mods are reversible so if they look pants then I just...

Ah I'm going again in October! Are you home for good next year? Deffo need to get your arse down to Trax or FCS for the night out alone...

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Cheers. Looks a lot better in person, however they're being powdercoated dark again after I take it around Europe... again.

When you doin the 'ring?

Hmm, wondering if it would be different for Recaros. Might just leave them tbh!

Would it still slide or is that a daft question? Any other negative effects it might have?

Awesome, shame to hear about the AE though. I've seen quite a few GT's knocking around :)

What happened to the AE86? Are you getting rid too?

Looks tidy :) Guess who I am...

I had the Hellas on mine! They sound mint haha. I hate you Dean. I still need a go in this x

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Ahh can't remember what he said now, just agreed to it hah. I'll update with total cost :) Exactly why I didn't use BG.

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Not sure yet. He charges £25 to dyno them (before and after) and he said £160 per damper as far as I can remember, will update this with the final cost when I get them back :)

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 The most recent thing I've changed is the wheels. Now, when I bought the car, they were COVERED in brake dust. It had literally baked on. Nothing would shift it! So they definitely needed a refurb. I had done a Photoshop of a weird colour that I liked a while...

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Some of you may have noticed the custom rear lights in the last post. I had these on my 1.2 and thought I'd try them on the Trophy. Looked alright I thought :) I also took the white 'ring sticker off and replaced it with a small black one on the bottom right of...

Re: Third Time Lucky; Trophy #41 Next up were a few cosmetic mods. Carbon-wrapped some interior bits; I know, my steering wheel is shocking! I got some black vinyl put on the front and rear bumpers to see what it'd look like. I realised that the rear one was a couple of cm too short at...
