Thanks for the mention, but a KA!!!!!! :cry:
Have you taken leave of your senses??? :cry:
As long as you like it that is all that counts, but I think you will miss your blck 172.

Well you did ask peoples opinions!
It is better to speak honestly, rather than encourage you to put on those lights which will spoil the nice appearance of your car!

Definitely NOT - personally I think that Lexus style lights suit only very light coloured cars like silver, pale blue and white.
Looks like others mostly think the same.

Whos a clever boy then? Glad the instructions worked!! Your car looks nice - very low.
On Saturday I saw someone open a passenger door on the pavement side, and because the car was so low, the door scraped along the pavement! Ouch!!

The SPORT badge seems to run parallel with the bottom edge of hatch lid but the RENAULT badge doesnt appear to be dead straight. Does it look slightly curved to anyone? I held a ruler up to the bottom line of the badge and either the ULT is straight and RENA slopes up ever so slightly to the...

Some friends have just got rid of their Scooby as it was horrendously expensive to get anything done, a new exhaust cost an absolute fortune as did some other work, so it had to go. They have replaced it with a cool better looking Integra Type R, which looks so much better than the newer Civic TR.

What do you mean about trouble with the handling?
I have had 17s on my Mk2 172 for about eight months and I cant tell the difference between the 16s and 17s!!
Make sure that you have very clean sponges etc when washing your car, keep separate ones for bonnet, top half, bottom and wheels and if you accidentally drop one, throw it away, because the slightest particle of grit or sand on your sponge, if used on the panels will make loads of scratchy lines...
If you dont mind mind saying - that is horrible!
It looks as though it has been prepared ready for a respray, prior to putting the door strips, handles, badges etc back on.

Can you go to your nearest DVLA office in person and see if they can hurry things up for you? Have a look in the phone directory for your nearest office and give them a ring first to see if they can help you.
