this always confused me,
i have the kind where you use paper filters, and re use the casing,
but everytime i go to halfrauds/euro car parts n give them my reg,
they plonk a metal one infront of me n i end up having to describe the one im after lol.
ive removed my rear platforms,
makes a difference,
and i took the rubber hat off the top,
just clunks abit more,
sorry after reading your question,
are you sure its not because once jacked up, the rear axle is at a completey different angle to when it is sitting on the floor??
IIRC theyre not accually strut braces,
they dont connect to the top of the strut, but to the inside of the chassis instead,
and theyre only for mounting harnesses to, they dont actually act as a strut brace.
when lowering 60mm or more, everyone says to change the shocks,
can anyone recommend the best shocks to use if lowering 60/70mm??
was thinking maybe these...
how can a correctly fitting torx bit not 'grip'??
have you rounded the bolts off?
get a slightly smaller socket and a hammer, then a very long bar to turn it
nah i see what you mean,
the rears are nearer the arch,
but the front sills are alot nearer the floor,
i can never win :'(
hence y i was shying toward level sills more.
oh god, dont say that, im anal enough as it is,
problem is, the front bumpers (with splitter) is lower,
^ if thats what you meant by flush with sils,
however, the front arches are much bigger than the rears, im going for overall ride height,
not sure if im happy with it,
i like the front,
but do you think the rear needs to go down abit more??
want it uber low, but want to maintain a nice stance??
however, lowering the rear, will make the splitter higher (slightly but i notice these things)
just looking for opinions on the...
good good,
putting sport badgers and 2.0 badges on will go down like a sack of siht on cliosport lol,
remember to colour code the door handles too, and your sorted,
good luck.
spoiler??
not sure what comes on the DCI,
but the 172 has a colourcoded dynamique spoiler,
colourcoded wingmirrors, door strips and door handles?
are you going to put the bullets and sport badge on??
and yes it is all straight fit
hubcentrics mate,
they bolt to the hub,
but have threads cut into them,
and theyre have a spigot built into the spacer to take the weight of the wheel,
cough up £10 for membership,
theres some for sale on there atm i believe
looks nice mate, like the ronals,
tho, get them gash headlights and brows off,
euro and OEM+ go hand in hand imo,
tbh im not a fan of the skirts either, clios work the euro well because theyve got a very round body.
id get some nice sized spacers
all imo of course
btw, i used a grom...
