You might like this angle a bit better. Took it with .5 zoom. Enjoy🤣View attachment 1773902

With the images you've taken. The grill alone on the HD looks to have more surface area than the whole front end of the Clio

Came across this Silverado 1500 with a pretentious numberplate a few months back. Your photo puts it to shame from a comparative perspective.

Absurd! Ha.

This is great news. I've been keeping an eye on the thread for a while now so I'm glad to see you got it back on home soil. There are going to be some very confused Texans in your area for the foreseeable future.

The poor little French diplomat! Congrats on getting it into the states, I wonder what a regular mechanic would make of it if you nonchalantly drove it into the shop 😂

Congrats on getting it across the Atlantic! Hopefully the engine issue will be solved quickly so you can enjoy it!

Turinis look so good on Titanium Silver, may I ask how you got them? I doubt many Aussies have access to Speedline Turinis, I know in South Africa there's only one guy who has a set for his 182, need to get in his will pronto😂

Yeah, you're on the money. Not many sets here. As they were never offered as an option when new. If you knew the part number, you could import them from a dealers parts department.....at great expense.
Reckon there are less than a handful of genuine speedlines sets in the country (not including the aftermarket version).

I was lucky enough to get my first OEM set (ET45 Trophy spec) from someone in Melbourne for much cheaper than what they were worth. These went on my previous Inferno 182. Pretty sure they are back in Melbourne on a FRB 182.
Second set I imported from the Renault Sport store/Oreca (ET38.5 Cup spec). These are brand new OEM. They have the correct centre bore, centre cap hole diameter and part number castings. Only problem I had with them is that they had the aftermarket variety casting markings between the spokes. My OCD couldnt stand this, so I had these shaved off to match OEM and wheels repainted. I also purchased a set of trophy centre caps then repainted them silver to match the wheels. I'd hate to know how much I spent on these if I totaled everything up 😭 🫠

If you're after a set. This is the listing on the Renault Sport Store: https://shop.renaultsport.com/RSper...ult-clio-ii-r-s-jean-ragnotti-685sl1818r.html

Thanks for all the info, and man do those Brembos look good sitting behind them! For s***s and giggles I went to the site and added 4 into my cart and added my shipping address, it totals to ~EUR1300, which is almost half what I paid for the whole car! One day, I suppose 🤞 😂

I see what you're saying about the casting marks, they'd also get on my nerves, why did them put them in the most visible place possible?!
Funny enough, I've never seen a replica Turini rim before, not necessarily saying they'd be a good buy of course, but to not even have the option? Most BBS rims over here are reps, and cost about a quarter of the real set.
