get another and spray it matt black, or get a carbon one ;)

^ if you mean rear bumper insert, then yeah its real carbon fibre, and i made it myself.

your my inspiration ;)

just a couple of pics of the carbon badge fitted and the new plates. as my cars a never ending story ive still got work to do including refitting the splitter, fitting new rear clusters, sorting the stone chips, speedline stickers, and of cause the bloody swirl marks the bodyshop left me. also...

nothing too fancy. just illegal spacing :approve:

auto-paint.co.uk good colour matches from the above shop.

^as above should have taken it back they would have fixed it no quibbles. And as i said earlier they do use 304 grade stainless

did you do it yourself with proper 2 pack paint or with cans? looks like a quality job and does make a big improvement.

wouldnt bother me in the slighest if it was renault or not, but without a full servicing log book i personally wouldnt touch a renaultsport.

^ looks like a good site. will try the tyre gel, otherwise will order some of the trim gel. the rim wax looks like it might be a good bet too for the wheels :)

^ these pics were massive, but i pressed resize one too many time lol

going to chuck it on tomorrow when i probably give the old bird a wash so could put some fitted pics up, as it looks much nicer on the car.

i love the megs glass cleaner, but then use AG glass polish on the outside to get a nice shine

280 for system. 150 for sports cat, both fitted. insurance made no difference to premium.

join the queue ;) lol

got some of this stuff, and its good on the tyres, will it not make a mess the next time i wash it? got the tyre spray but i'd make too much of a mess with it lol

ive just got a powerflow stealth system with sports cat. told him i didnt want much noise, but wanted to know i had an exhaust lol. no complaints about them at all, and would definetely recommend them.

its a nice job none the less :)

who cares if they're legal anyway. my local plate just made some up for me, and put 'show plates' on the invoice. job done :D

my cat back barely makes a noise unless im accelerating, which is down to good design. also gave a 'small' increase in performance lol

yeah. a cat back is normally louder, but only because the pipework will be of a greater bore. you could have standard sized pipework - just to give the look, and a little bit of noise. personal preference tho at the end of the day :)

may as well get a cat-back. no performance gains, but at least you dont have to replace the centre section when it rusts. its not that much cheaper to get just a backbox either, especially when you can get a powerflow for instance at 260 with a lifetime warranty.

not a bad price at all if its powder coated.

mine (literally) fell off at 20k lmao

whats the best thing to get the plastics looking like new as my baseplates have really gone discoloured. ive got some auto glym bumper care which seems quite good, but the white stains still come back through. any 'cheap' suggestions appreciated - otherwise i shall send them off for spraying.

this one was my 'propotype' so to speak. so its simply 3M taped on, however resin would definetely work better over the longer term. i shall see how this one goes, before deciding if it needs resticking.

in all honesty mate its not worth bothering to send it over. i could send you some carbon which would cover it, and would simply need trimming to fit. then you just need to spray your badge black before you stick it on :) mark.

^^lmao. the carbon ive used is extremely thin stuff, and ive simply attached it using some 3M double sided tape to the face of the badge in two pieces. the badges themselves are 17quid inc. vat if anyone wants to buy one and have a go.

lmao a lot of blood sweat and tears ;) will be doing my number plate recesses in the same stuff when it arrives :approve:

nah its real carbon fibre, cant really tell in the pics :) replying now ;)
