Was thinking of getting it lowered and i agree it would look better. If i was to lower it, are there any decent springs which would lower by say 40mm and be on a par with the cup suspension i already have?
I dont want to get it lowered on springs and its handling is worse than what it is now...
Nah thats not me mate.
Cheers for the comments, ive seen an r26r sticker kit on ebay and it says they make custom decals to whatever you want. Was thinking the same decals but instead of R26.r on them have either 197cup, RS197 or something like that.
How about the mirrors the same red...
I posted a while back about having my speedlines painted the same colour as the red R26.r alloys. I went ahead with it in the end and heres how it looks. I also had my rear diffuser painted gloss black. To follow shortly is a carbon bonnet, carbon mirror covers and black wheel nuts or covers...
White would look good but i had white on previous car and there a sod to keep clean.
As for the world series sticker it was already on there when i bought it and i dont dislike it tbh.
That would be great if you could post a pic, I can get them done fairly cheap for cash by a renault approved bodyshop. What would you do about the small diamond in the centre? I was thinking carbon...
Nah they wont but it will make a change from my black ones. Just getting bored with mine feel like a change lol.
Thanks for the PS, im going to get a price next week and go from there.
Hi,
I was thinking about having my black speedlines sprayed the same red as the R26.R wheels. Would someone be able to photoshop them for me to see if it looks any good? These pics below are the best i have to hand so if there not any good il take some more.
Thanks Shaun.
I had the lacquer on my ST wheels coming off in places after they were sprayed white. I think it was where i used to go to close with the pressure washer.
My radio control stick on my 197 has stopped working. It has an alpine headunit fitted by previous owner and it used to display 'alpine' on the screen next to the clock now it doesnt. Any ideas why it has stopped working all of a sudden?
Cheers.
I've always wondered what they are like tbh. My 197 has always been run on Ultimate unleaded or v-power depending on garage. May be cheaper to use the additives though.
Yea i agree, ive taken the bulb out of mine as it stays on all the time. It doesnt shut enough on the right had side to push the little black pin in to turn the light off.
Yeh i was thinking about that, what about getting the strips colour coded? As for the decals they were already on there so i've just left them, i guess it makes it look abit different from other cups.
Cheers Chris. Yeh it looks loads better think thats what il do. Im surprised no-one has mentioned the decals - im obviously not the only one that thinks they look ok lol :)
Thanks mate thats brill, i actually think it looks ok. Think it would look better if the grey bit was black so the white stood out abit more. What photoshop do you use to be able to edit pics like you have here?
What do you guys think it would look like if i sprayed the renault diamonds on the speedlines white to match the car?
Could someone photoshop it for me please?
