unfortunately I genuinely have no idea, all the carbon i have on the car has been acquired used via the classified on here of fakebook groups, so what company actually made them I do not know!

completely true tbh, hence having 4 of them lying about, all constantly changing and evolving. i get bored very quickly!

cheers @OneTime_ it's got a bit out of hand really, carbon everywhere and maybe a little too much for some, but keeps me interested in the car after 7.5 years :) i just love to tinker! yours is looking clean to, lovely!

Old versus new, the carbon insert is a full direct replacement for the original, so this is why the bumper needs removing. The clips holding the old one in are seriously heavy duty really for what it is and need to be popped out from the rear with the foam padding removed. The exhaust trims...

So whilst the car was up in the air for the rear brakes, thought I'd take the opportunity to whip the rear bumper off, clean everything up and fit the carbon insert and exhaust trims I have had in the shed since last Autumn. Bumper off Arch liners out and cleaned up Old trims removed...

Took the opportunity today to strip, clean and re-grease the rear brakes as one calliper was binding slightly and it's another job i like to do once a year. The rears on the Clio's have been a weak spot, the calliper design harks right back to the R5's i think, so 80's design really. So rear...

great attention to deal as ever Mr Mark :)

Everything you mention @Dr Jekyll bar badges, don't do badges I prefer them oe silver for the Renault diamond

Fitted the rear carbon today, will attack the front stuff Monday I think

@White16valver not really, just never really liked the cups, 172 or 182, just don't appeal to me

Mostly agree, we all underprice But trophy > phase 1 > full fat 182 > 172 cup for me

Cleaned the seat belts again, annual task I always cover off just after the clocks change.

I think @makavelli is responsible for those, strut brace fitted to the car many moons ago. Way before my ownership

The mk2's are on the up for that reason though, people want to come back as they're kicking themselves for selling up in the first place. Plus they're all 15+ years old now so far fewer left to choose from

Looked lovely that

yeah think that's smokey Pete isn't it? think saw your post on the groups

Pop over to the clio 1.8 16v facebook groups, some of the lads over there are decent on the spliced loom approach to the converison i'll be of little use as mines a full mk2 loom transplant, full car

welcome fellow mk1 F4R crew

Dan's should and search mine 'Trophy Red Mk1' for what used to be Danny's supercharged project as that's now my trackcar and very much alive and kicking Matt's is still with him too, currently having ecu and wiring sorted to be back out this year for a trackday @Zmaster2k

appears my camera on the phone has gone full potato too, apolgies….and that boot seal is clearly annoying too, list of niggles added to

Cleaned the belts again yesterday, annual spring job as this light grey was THE best idea Renault ever had 🤦‍♂️

yep, that's what I run on my daily, use it on track to, on stock cup dampers and works well

Yeah 200 quid coilovers will be good for one thing if you're mad enough to not just put them straight in the bin and that's scene lowz

Has she upped the boost though, that's the real question

Not sure tbh, I acquired these pre loved through the classifieds on here

I like a bullet to match a wheel colour, and the spray shack ones are lovely things too,very nicely done.

@White16valver yeah died matey after previous owner didn't pay hosting. Site was deleted and lost about last 6 years from previous backup before host change. As such basically write off and we all moved to Facebook group instead. Not the same though, forums work better imo by miles

Painted the shields with thier mods and little riveted on brackets and then mocked up both sides. New studs showed up too. So I know I've got all the parts refurbished and everything there now so jobs a good un. Blowtorch at the ready for the weekend Pics: Brackets made up and riveted on...

you'll need to cut the caliper mounting bracket off and then either bash the stub out the beam or yeah chop it off flush with an angle grinder. that's my backup plan too if it all goes wrong. however you'll still need to get the torx bolts out to retap and reuse the bolt holes to mount the 172...

no worries @Macphail any questions you have, whichever thread you post in just tag me with an '@' and i'll do my best assist. always good to see more mk1 enthusiast about
