carboncopy looking good fella, i like phquick 172s but i dont like the ph1 standards, would rather a ph2 1.2-1.6, not sure why i have this tie in feelings!!
cheers bud,
will try and get them off, afraid of posting pics up since everyone slates me for them (quite rightly). haing said that, bring on the fixed and painted 172 rear bumper (my own money) and the PC xmas pressie, (most of my own money and a quick help from good old santa)
right bumper mate
you have a mk2 phase 1, and the bit around the lights is part of the grill (centre above the front bumper is part of it too if im not very much mistaken)
breakers yard matey, breakers!
the sport or the 2.0l?
2.0l were meant to be temporary, now been stuck on by bloody repair shop after bumpety bump a month or two ago. tried prising off but worried am gonna break them, so might just do so and replace with the silver 16vs i am currently diying
better late than never, havent had internet and its jsut had ALOT of wrk done on it, by me (so not that much, just taken ages lol!!) . . . . .
and as she looks today after new xenon headlamp and 172 grill and 172 front bumper (whihc took fooking ages to get looking ok) . . . ..
oh...
i would like to get a couple of cliosport.net exterior stickers made up ie www.cliosport.net in white or black writing, anyone know of a place that will do this for me?
cheers,
jamie
corvette is lovely car, and would have one if i ever have the money, and in terms of
" People have to get this "American cars cant handle" superstition out of there heads"
watch the new clarkson video, granted he takes the piss out of a lot of US cars, but its interesting to see just how...
1st thing i did mate when immobiliser started to act up. but these are renaults and clios espesh are renound for having cheap electrics, not just bad batteries (mine is checked regularly when i check the oil etc for longer than 1 hour journies). but it is still a fair bit of advice.
jamie
p.s...
^^^just bought a set for 9 quid since people will buy them for silly money when advertised properly :D:D:D
hmm who wants to set up a business buying from renault and selling on ebay, think could have my vee by xmas if they go at that rate!!
jamie
yeah defo no bigger, they may look "good" but the handling will be rubbish and you will neeeeeeeed to lower it big style. itll look like a tractor mate.
stick with the 16s.

jamie

alot of the higher brand cars only use one bulb and lens for dipped beam and high beam. my dads audi s4 uses this, the lens angles upwards to create the full beam, as does my mums a3. this as most know doesnt apply to the reanult range.
like the guys have said, dont bother with any after market...
ripoff renault charge 200 for colourcoded electric and heated mirror, not sure how much the glass is, but this might help ya

tbh mate, i...
got exactly the same problem, mine is fairly intermittent as well, so managed to get stranded hour away from home in the freezing cold 20mins after leaving gfs house.
with mine, i wait for a bit, say ten mins, then open the bonnet, lock the car with the interior button, unlock it with my key...
i felt this mofo, went from steelies to standard dynamiques, and couple of months ago went to 16 172 wheels, feels different thats for sure, more grip aye, but also seems to come down from speed quicker if that makes sense, ie when you take your foot off the gas it slows down to a stop quicker...
