172 Mondial Blue matt side strips?

[Playboy]

Saw a mondial blue 172 cup the other day and the side strip stuck out like a sore thumb, colour match looks awful.

its like matt and the rest of the cars shiny.

Sort it out renault

Haha crazy french colour coding

 

[Da]

they're un-laquered on them there cups mate!

the laquer adds too much excessive weight..

you sure it wasnt a 1.2 extreme with turinis they come in mondial or a very VERY simmilar colour and have the body tinted strips instead off colour coded

Yup the Cup side-strips are matt, they're all like it.

Can't get a paint code out of Renault at all for them though, damn annoying! Mine need a respray but I want to stay standard, using Mondial would be easy but I like to be awkward!

Even to the un-trained eye a 1.2 extreme and a Cup are notable different mate

im a trained pro at spotting cars lol, which are fake and which ones arent but yeah it looks horrible all matt.

Renaut you bar stewards, stop being soo lazy.

as above for some bizarre reason Reno didn't lacquer the bump strips...
Take a look @ this photo of mine - the off side bump strip does not reflect the sunlight 'cos it's matt...
