Also carbon wrapped a few of the interior bits, will get pictures of this later as I don't have any atm.

Opinions?
 
If you going to use xenons go for the proper 182 xenon headlights rather than cheap hid kits that blind every road user.

Re: Newbie From Coventry!

Thank You! Yeah insurance prices don't allow me to drive a sport :-( one day lol.

How old are you bro? I'm 20 and have a Clio 200. It's blackboxed but only as a bonus accelerator. There is no downside to having it blackboxed. It was the only insurance company that would take me even with a crash on my name and I pay £1500.

I'm 18, 17 when I took out my policy and I pay £2200 a month with a blackbox.

Few updates:
Went to the scrapyard and there was a nice little black clio sat there with a colour coded spoiler screaming buy me, so I did!

I also got what I originally went for at the scrapyard a new plastic for my dash clocks. Looks so much better without the horrible crack in it.

Looking nice buddy!
Very tidy, especially with the colour coded side strips and front bumper - Did you do them yourself or did you get them sprayed? :)
Thanks mate. My brother does body repair and spraying etc so got him to do them for me, I done all the prep he just sprayed them up for me! Only cost me in materials so it was all good!
Should get yours done if you haven't already
Wouldn't think this car was bought for 350 quid ! Bloody bargain ! Nice car mate :)
When I went to see it I thought oh god, do I or do I not lol but glad I went with it and brought it as it has turned out to be a right bargain!

Thanks pal.

Got my alloys refurbed today, I done all the prep but got my brother to spray them up to a professional finish, great having a brother that does this sorta stuff.

Look very close to the standard anthracite colour in pictures, but in person there slightly different.
Also got my bullets done in the same colour, looks much better imo.

Apologies for the rubbish photo, will get some better ones tomorrow.

Thoughts?

Looking good mate. Will look good with Sport Xenon Headlights, considering getting a set for my 1.2 but I'm not sure about the MoT stuff. Seems to be a little woolly regarding whether you need washers. Although if you take them out for your MoT you should be okay.

Thanks,
Ross

Yeah I was thinking about getting a set but like you said MOT procedures etc.. but again, like you said take them out for the mot and it'll be fine :)

Looking well mate! Absolute bargain!
Thanks mate. Yeah it was £350 well spent.

Never done them but shouldn't be a hard job, about 30 mins on rear and maybe an hour max on front?
Yeah not too bad at all!
