It's getting there bud, I still love your engine bay, it's gorgeous!
Finally removed the rascal K&N induction kit off mine! Thanks god. Tints are off next!
Hopefully, my car will be completely different since the first time you saw it :-)
Coming along nice buddy, I get my 172 rear bumper next week, that's getting sprayed up, I'm buying some 16mm spacers for the rear off a chap on here, hopefully - I will actually be colour coded by the Southend meet :O
You had any lunch fixing the handbrake and brake pedal squeak? Mine does exactly the same, brake pedal squeaks when I release it and so does my handbrake. Highly annoying!
Use the search function buddy, there's loads on spraying tips and guides. In terms of paint - go to a car paint dealer who can provide/mixup your colour to an exact match :-)
Drop Simon at SprayShack a message if your want a professional OEM finish, he done my spoiler & wiper blank to...
Cheers buddy.
The best colour of the non-sports IMO ;-) mines nothing in comparison to your gorgeous inferno! Keep an eye on the for sale thread, always a bargain to be had with xenon's, I waited months till the right pair came up, then done a 130mile round trip to get them, well worth it!
Lol I consider sticker bombing & tints & induction kit as chavvy. Hence gradually removing said items :-) cheers for the comments buddy. You won't regret getting projectors :-)
Here's some pictures after she was fully cleaned and my first sttempt at minor detailing. Pretty chuffed with how the gris boreal paint came up :-)
she was washed, waxed, SRP'd and EGP'd
Similar thing happened to me, I got my window smashed by a group of c***ts - all because I was looking out for my girlfriend... I heard a window smash, jumped out of bed and see the person who did it and three other boys jump into a white vxr and race away from outside my house, police arrived...
De tarred, washed, waxed, SRP'd and EGP'd the whole car. Good 3 hours spent on giving her a good clean and detail, for my first attempt I'm quite impressed with the results on my "gris boreal" colour :-)
Ill be there 150%. Car was playimg up so i couldnt make it to the chelmsford meet. a couple of my mates went woth CCUK down to southend and sae the cliosport lot there! so gutted i missed it :-( Maybe strange one for July too? August Is so far away !
Lowering the rears was a doddle mate - there's a good thread on how to change the springs on a clio - just google it buddy :-) the fronts can be a right pain as the bolts tend to seize on old cars. Tonnes of wd40 a few days before goes a long way to loosen them off :-)
The rears are seperate...
