dont tell the people bidding on these but they are broken. look how low the "iris" lens is, too low, meaning the luggs that hold the lens in place are broken so the lens is resting on the internal plastics (common occurance if ripped out or involved in a bump). this means, like my original set...
if i fit these to a 1.2 16v am i going to experience problems if i do not use uprated shocks as well?
been told that buying an apex 40mm full kit is a bad idea as they are no good?

the new s3 is meant to be sat on our neighbours drive soon, very very good cars, but all reviews have been a little disappointed with the handling.

looks good, wheels need a bit of zapping up when its not stone cold outside! and maybe some tyre gel, but really nice shine to it, in the 2nd pic especially mate.

do as jay suggested, buy the actual renault units. most would advise against after market sets as the trophies are lim editions so putting in new wires will devalue the car. the renault units are swap, plug and play so can be easily put back to standard when you come to sell the car.

P21s is a good wax mate, but as most will tell you it is actually the stages of paint cleaning before the wax and sealants that create the deep colour. so a good claying, then polishing with poorboys polish would be good option, unless you want to go the whole way and get it PCd.
also you need...
scrappies is the best place mate, tell them what you want, what colour and they should find one for you. failing that, ebay (breaking cars, or just one item that you could respray. (and this kinda should be in another section but i doubt most will mind)
jamie
btw that would be with gloss black since im not sure how to get rid of the shine (since i just edit the colour and darken it)
anything else you want doing?
