Oh yeah, and how hard / expensive is it to fit?

Craggy is trapped without computer in deepest Scotland and needs to know where he can get a cheap turbo for a Series 1 Punto GT (GT1). He reckons youre the man to ask (cant think why ). Can you (or anyone else of course) help? Cheers, Rhys

gaj16v - ooh....good moral dilema question! I reckon yes, having the interior is okay as it is a functional part of the car designed for comfort. People are also unlikely to sit in a valver and think it is a 172 as they would see the car when they get in. I suppose if you made them close their...

Sorry - cant. Would be strictly against my very strong principles to say I wanted more central events and then go to a Southern one this Friday . Seriously though, cant get the time off work at the moment Will wait until the 205 is in use and then risk it instead of the 172. More worried about...

I read your thread too, Paddy, but didnt want to look sad by saying how desperate I am for the new forum to come along cos itll make my life complete. Oh bugger.... Rhys

Itll probably be hidden under the bumper for that stealth effect (like yer bog standard 172s) Rhys

Not wishing to be funny with anyone, but the fact that most club based events are organised down south is kind of off putting for me (and probably some others). Id like to do a Cliosport trackday but its too far to go (especially if I kill the car) and there doesnt seem to be any movement on...

Dont know if this point has already been made, but the "Sport" badge that is on the back of the 172 is in the same font as the RenaultSport logo. The badge is only put on RenaultSport cars and thus denotes the car has been tinkered with by RS. It doesnt just denote that it is a car with sporting...

Cool! We should meet up and plan some routes round the Peak District to compare the cars (will also help run yours in!). I suggest the road from Bakewell to Buxton. It has everything: twists, turns, gradients and even a 2 miles long stretch of dual carridgeway for some safe overtaking attempts...

BTW, Girlracer, I hope you are joking........

I think I might just leave the original, non-sprayed mesh in there. Its too much hassle to spray and yes, it does look like a bodge even though I spent sodding HOURS cutting out the template and it looked really good on paper! BTW, I didnt remove the lower grille plastic, I just used a couple...

Ive had mine done for months now, but I still really appreciate them every time I drive the car. Good modification to do. Rhys

Actually, plan c is to make an enlarged Renaultsport logo template. The last one I tried it with was too small (A4 paper sized). Needs to be about 3 times as big and taking up most of the mesh. Will probably spend next 3 days cutting the sodding letters out from a large piece of card just to...

Meant to be the three RenaultSport logo things (red yellow and blue) but...erm...in black Ill get me coat... Rhys

This is an experiment. Opinions??? BTW, i KNOW its a dark picture. If you cant see it, lighten it or something! Its also just propped in the grille, not fastened on... http://www.blindassassins.com/mesh172_02.jpg Rhys
