I reversed over a rock a few weeks ago and it's scuffed and cracked the underneath of my splitter. Is this repairable?
I was thinking of taking it to a body shop maybe they could sand it and spray it black to cover it up or something?
Ok, so my 172, soon to have decat, exhaust, cams, remap, BMC CDA with CAF, just wondering would it beat a std cooper s in a straight line??
My missus is getting a cooper s and I wanna know I could beat her if we had a little tussle lol!!
the pipe between the cat and the back box has corroded and the back box has literally fallen off.
Is it unsafe to drive? I don't need to go long distances, only about 8 miles a day, so just wondering if I drive sensibly is it effecting my car? Seems ok apart from the ridiculous noise it...
Just after some feedback from people that have had cams and exhausts etc.
All I have in terms of tuning is a BMC CDA, but without a CAF. So what I want to know it will I see much change in the sense of power gains if I:
- Get Cams (with remap and matched inlets)
- Get a decat and exhaust
-...
It's getting to point break with my car now first I needed to replace of the brake discs and pads, then it made a really squeaking noise for about a week, I think the alignment it out cos my steering wheel shakes like mad, now the exhaust is hanging off and when I accelerate it sounds like an...
PM me about the exhaust and decat. Definitely need them asap due to the standard 172 exhaust being horse sh*t:approve:
tried PM'ing u before but your inbox was full!
Does anyone use MS outlook at work??
I need to change my details which show up in the Outlook directory (i.e. name, number, department, address etc) and I'm not sure how to do it.
Thanks

Looking at doing a few breather mods to my car. Just wondering if it's worth the hassle getting a decat or should I just fork out more for the sports cat?
Has anyone got any vids or sound clips of a 172 with decat?
Cheers
Would putting a CAF and routing it to the bottom grill, getting a sports cat and getting matched inlets make much difference to the performance of my 172. Seems to be a little sluggish at the moment :( especially off the line!
Is there a way of routing a CAF without removing the acoustic...
It was nice and hot today, so thought I would take some new pics of my flame red. Comments welcome :)

It keeps telling me my interactive session has expired, even though I've not left it inactive for 5 mins or more. I hate insurance websites for getting quotes, they are sh*t
Fancy making my car look a bit better and just wondering where to get the following stuff for the cheapest price:
- 16 or 17" superturismos or anthracite turini's
- Cup/Vee spoiler
- www.cliosport.co.uk decal for my bonnet (small text). Currently got a www.hillpower.co.uk one at the front of...
I bought some at the weekend to try and help with the swirls on my bonnet. Didn't really work. Can someone whos good with detailing tell me how your mean't to do it?? I worked square foot sections at a time, left it to dry for about 5-10 mins (while I worked on another section) then wiped it...
Just wondering if anyone has pics or links to threads of Big Iains 172 with the 182 anthracite wheels. I remember seeing it a bit ago and wanna convince the missus that they look quality on flame red!!
Cheers!
Do Renault still sell the 182 wheels in anthracite? Or have they stopped making/selling them now?
Really wanting some. I know Munchkin has some for sale but they are provisionally sold at the mo!
This morning at around 7.15am. Going past the jnc for M55. I was in my flame red 172
Looking very nice, I actually didn't like these to start with but they are definitely growing on me!
Had a tussle with an MG TF last night. the guy driving looked like a right nonce, clearly loved himself. I was pulling away from it pretty nicely, just wondering what spec they are?
Does anyone know where I could get hold of one of these MS Design grills for my ph2 172:

Heard k-tec don't actually stock them anymore (even though they are still on the website)
I went to view a 182 cup at a garage today and to see what they would give for my mint condition 2003 172 FF with 27k on the clock. The guy said he could give me a max of £5k due to it's colour cos most people want a car like mine in black or silver. What a nonce!! So I would have needed to part...
If you had £1000 to spend on a pretty much standard ph2 172, what would u do. I've already got a carbon splitter and BMC CDA.
Changed my mind about getting a 182 cup, just going to put a bit of money into making mine better.
Tempted by white turinis and a stealth exhaust
Found a 182 Cup that I might be part exing my ph2 172 for. Just wondering what the interior is like? I drove past the garage before, but the gate was closed so only saw the exterior. It's racing blue (they have it listed as powder blue lol). Has anyone got pics?
Will a simple remap on a 172 alter the rev limiter. Mine seems to red line fairly early, at about 6500/6750 rpm. I've heard people mention red lining at 7800 rpm.
