dealers wont do it, its done in the manufacturing process when the weels are made
manufactuers either powder coat or wet spray the wheels in the factory
if you want that colour, you have 2 options
buy the wheels off someone whos upgraded theirs
or get yours powder coated (colour wont be...
cliopatra comin at ya!!!
my girlfriends dad has a 355 and thats EXPENSIVE to service (think it needs the belts doing every 12000 IIRC)
but a new CAT is surprisingly only £150!! (but there are 4 of them i think)
positive!!! i ran 10W/40 in mine, but it fooked the fuel consumption (Renault didnt know what it should have!!!)
i ran it on 0W40 mobil 1 for about 25000miles, ive just recently switched to comma 5W/40
only the 172 family are "real sport" models
Dynamiques are "sport shopping trollies!!"
just pay £200 odd and get it colour coded, no biggie (even less seeing as your bro can do it!!!)
Buy the 172 handles and side strips though, you get a much better "factory" finish (about £80 quid from Reno)
Just ship your car to aus mate!!!! they drive on the same side of the road, plus there are a few Renault dealers out there!!!
you could sell it out there for the same you paid for it here (172s are £££ in aus!!)
I saw Yozza THRASH a "Cup200" 3 times!!! my mate has one, its quick, but no where near 200bhp quick!!!
My mate was SO pissed off he lost to a std cup LOL!!!
all they do is skim the head and debur the ports, and they claim headwork!!!!
open induction kit = loose you power
plus if you do any headwork you need to get the ECU remaped to get the most from it, LAD dont touch the ECU!!! and claim 34bhp increase IIRC
We invited them to the Power...
