Been quiet for a while on here, but had some recent developments with the old DCI. Swapped out the front grill for a sports one: Spent two hours yesterday restoring my glazed and yellowed headlights using the 3M kit and finished them with some UV protecting polish: Before: After...

Hey! I know this is an old post but I've just come across it and realised that you (the OP) own my old 172! I wondered where it had ended up! How's she doing? In regards to the headlights I didn't replace them myself so could have been done by the original owner, never realised they weren't the...

That's sweet!

Cheers for the positive comments everyone, there may be more to come soon :)

Ha cheers man :)

Ha thanks mate, love ly but if it was colour it would be blue, like mine :)

Comments welcome :) Any other artists on here?

Thanks dann2707, I thought so :)

Picked up and installed some front sport door cards yesterday, the alacantra is somewhat worn but for a fiver off Ebay I can't really complain. Anyhow this is how they look: Before After Comments welcome :)

Ha I know what you mean but everything I've done so far has been small, and the bumper only cost me £30. It's likely this is going to be a long thread as it's going to be slow going but I'll get there! It is a 65, and I'll check it out thanks :)

Hi again everyone, it's been a while since i've posted anything - mainly because I sold my Sport to buy a Diesel (saving up for a wedding you see) and since then haven't really been into doing anything to it. However I've recently started having that urge to change things and make her my own...

Ah, thanks again. So much for that plan...

Thanks by the way :)

Damn. I was afraid of that.

I'm thinking (if the colour is the same as a Sport) it's either Mondial or Arctic Blue...

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone knows the colour codes for the 2005 1.6 DCI Extreme, mine's a light blue (sort of Nautical blue I think); I've checked the sticker on the door panel but it's come off :/ I'm wanting to fit some Sport bits and i'd like them to match...

Hi guys, the setup I have on the rear of my 172 at the minute is coilovers with fairly new (as in, bought within the last year) standard Renault shocks. Now I've been seeing a lot about Cooksport springs recently and was wondering, would these be a better combination with the shocks I have and...

Thanks for the criticism, I'm rather pleased with them.

Looking out for an exhaust surround to tidy up the rear bumper and a CUP spoiler, and i'll be happy (for now)!

Couple of updates (haven't been any for a while). First off, I sorted that chavvy twin pipe out thanks to ExhaustsUK who fitted a new tailpipe for me: Also (after a lot of deliberation) I splashed out on some RenaultSport mats, couldn't not really ... And just today I added a little...

Didn't think you could put twin pipes on a 172, thought the wheel well would be in the way ...

Yeah man I know what you mean, mine looks horrible at the mo but there's no point doing anything about it while the weather is like this! Looking forward to giving her a good clean when things brighten up a bit :P

Hmm can't remember if I was just getting to work (9am) or coming off my lunch which would make it about 1pm. Must have been coming off my lunch I guess! Only just realised how sweet RS Clios look in black!

Coming out of petrol station/McDonalds onto roundabout, anyone here? I drove right past but don't think you saw me :P

Ah okay, hope you all enjoyed yourselves :D

You'll have to refresh my memory Adam ... Don't think so Feirny :S

Yeah man exactly, can't trust these drivers of non-sport cars :P Saw yours the other day in Maplins along with a Silver 182. They looked sweet!

Late reply but the Iceberg is mine :) I drive through Barnsley all the time.

That would be mine (though you already know of course)! Gotta tuck it away so no one will park too close, can't have it getting damaged :P
