One on the left is a rep mate

That isn't a reversing light, it's a brake light. It's just the standard spoiler one, same as fitted to none sports. Put your car in reverse, get out and have a look from behind to see where they are in the clusters.

Lol. Posts about problem, people try to help, ignores comments. Classic CS.

You should have just got the cm composites one if not fitting a rear light. Only £65. https://www.cmcomposites.co.uk/clio-parts/

Post some pictures of the thickness if you get chance please mate.

Received the plates?

f**k paying sawmill parking prices! It was ridiculous when I was there.

Had a go at repairing this today so thought i'd update. Got it glowing with a blow torch and I carefully positioned it in the correct position using the little 'cup' to make sure the hole was the right shape and not distorted. I attacked it with a wire brush then ran over it with a few beads...

Ahh, yeah i know that spot! In the free parking bit just behind sawmill? I doubt you'll really use your car much at all first year :smile:

Im living in Huddersfield mate. Im sure you will see my car around

Not seen that around before.

182 mate.

A pic of my flange: You can kind of see how it's almost twisted on the bottom one. I think I'll get it on axle stands this weekend and make some sort of brace from some 3mm steel and buzz that on. Grinder will soon sort out that rust

How likely are you to strip something when removing the manifold? Most manifold bolts i've come across (albeit on older cars) are properly seized.

What diameter would i require for the manifold? And doable whilst on the car?

I presume the best bet for a vband is through a proper exhaust place or someone who can use TIG, rather than messing around with MIG. What sort of price would I be talking for one of those to be fitted?

I've only got access to mig, and I have no idea what a v-band is. 😂 I'm worried that it'll just bend again when i refit the spring kit.

I can get some tomorrow.

I think having a cheap badly fitting decat has meant too much force has been applied to that flange and it's been weakened over time. It's bent pretty far, and i'm worried bending it back will make it snap. I'll attempt with plenty of heat. Ideally i'd take the manifold off, but that's a lot...

bump. Anyone repaired the flange before?

You girlfriend buys you wheels for your car??? Does she have a sister?

Cheers Dan :) I'm getting there slowly! No, he wrote off a focus which you may be getting mixed up with but the jordans still alive.

I've seen people having no problems with febi top mounts at a fraction of the cost. But solid is a great way to go.

Both are great, but the ktec ones are more expensive. If buying new I'd go PMS, however are you sure your knocking is down to the top mounts? If it's had new top mounts, they could require an extra spacer to stop the knocking as it's very common.

I believe they've all changed to black now, so the arb might not be as old as I thought. They did this fadetoblack scheme where they'd change all yellow bushes to black. My cameras lense needed a clean, and I've only just realised now but most of the pictures have come out slightly blurred but...

My manifolds flange has bent inwards towards the decat, and i'm worried that bending it back will lead to it snapping. I don't really want to get a whole new manifold, but had been thinking if i heat it and bend it back, then run a few beads of weld over it I might be able to strengthen it...

Tyres are also cheaper on the 15's. I can't wait to get my 2118's on.

Dat arch gap

When did you order the one from proplates Gus? IIRC they used to be the thin ones, but now they're the same thickness as the fancyplates ones made from acrylic. Direct from the manager at proplates 'We use high impact ABS acrylic, 4 - 5 mm thick, BSAU 14d Class A reflective, 3M glue'
