5dr 1.2 rep

[spanishbhoy]

should be good once all the changes youve said are completed.....however.... id avoid a "cheap" rear spoiler. i learned the hard way. they look pants. cup spoiler ftw

 

[Claire90]

cheap could be the 16v spoiler

 

[JakeJ]

cheap could be the 16v spoiler

naa not a 16v one as i already had one of them.

I recieved my spacers through the post today and to my surprise they are 50mm each side so the wheels are in line with the arches so need to get the all important camber going .

Will get some pics of whats happened tomorrow as i got home from work in the dark so didnt see daylight

I have removed most of the stickers from the back so its more grown up so to speak.

The exhaust should be booked into powerflow to get it sorted out and hopefully fitted

C&C welcome

Anything orange on it needs to go ASAP, hurry up and get it lowered aswell! You could also look into getting the factory xenons aswell?

 

[SC03OTT]

Reminds me of this.

 

[steviegee]

good thread just finished reading it, i agree with everyone else, lose the orange and get it lowered and lose the exhaust. Good car but dont ruin it.

 

[Knuckles]

Reminds me of this.

is that how they came from the factory because theres an 80 year old bloke round here driving a green one with and orange grill

 

[spanishbhoy]

get a cup spoiler mate..... other wise it wont be a rep if ur rockin a 16v spoiler will it now ;-)

 

[mugglesquop]

yes

 

[Bondy 172]

Needs:

Coilovers
Splitter, drums, calipers, diamond + badges back to original colour
Those stickers to be removed and discarded in the nearest garbage recepticle
Original bullets (or the "smoothed" ones from the Clio Campus)
That exhaust to be burned
Cup spoiler

^ Yep, pretty much spot on (plus wheels now)

Car's a really nice colour, lowered and subtle styling (ie above) and you would be onto a winner

 

[JakeJ]

UPDATE:
I have said that i have all of these new extras for the clio so after work today i took a few pics to show them all to you .

When i arrived home from work yesterday afternoon i had these bad boys waiting for me.


a picture against a small square tissue box to show the size

a quick shot from last night while the car was in the air after just putting the wheel back on

now for the pictures from today. A couple just to show how the spacers make a difference.

a slight little bit of camber maybe

a shot of the spacers (please excuse the curbing)

refinement on the front with less orange and a rs grille and the bullets too.



Some pictures of the spoiler. I personally really like it but i am guessing most of you wont. I am fully aware that it needs to be sprayed.





and one from the rear quarter

A couple of shots from the front. I think the second one looks quite agressive




Thats all for now just need to save a bit of money to get the new exhaust fitted and then i am nearly done. Waiting till the new year to get the apexi springs on

TOP LIMIT POWAH!

 

[AJ02]

Looks a lot better than the last time I visited this thread, you've finally toned down the orange!
Don't know whether you'd be interested but I've got a spare set of 16v bullets if you wanted to replace the 2.0 ones, had them knocking about since I bought them with the intention of spraying them.

Cheers for the offer mate but i still have mine i just like the look of the 2.0l ones better.

Thanks for the comments guys. Keep them coming in. always like to hear what other people think

[Claire90]

should have fitted the wide track than the 50mm spcers imo

 

[JakeJ]

what is the wide track? never heard of this so i got spacers.
jake

 

[MDP91]

Those spacers are huge!!!! I used to run 25mm on the front and used to feel like I was driving a bus. You might find if you lower it you'll get some major scrubbage. Front is looking good though mate, like the orange splitter and the sticker, looks smart. Personal opinion is paint your rear drums black, will make your rear wheels 'pop' abit, same with the front calipers. You want to contrast it up. Looking good though mate, keep it up.

 

[mugglesquop]

knackered wheel bearings yet?

 

[Claire90]

Wide track is what the sports have on the front. Longer bottom ball joints/hub. And steering rod /track rod ends

[danzel]

I don't know if it's just me but the front spacers are wayyy too big. Just right for the back though

 

[MDP91]

If you want nice stance, id of got 15 or 25mm on the front. 50mm is HUGE!

 

[spanishbhoy]

looking much better... i quite like that spoiler. much u get it for? 25mm spacers would have been plenty.... 50mm is maybe a bit too much.... might look better when lowered though... glad youve toned down the orange... looking good

 

[adamf92]

splitter in orange looks mint, alloys look swamped by the car though, I would have gone with turninis or standard 182 ones.

Otherwise, sweet job youve done

 

[JakeJ]

i got it for £60 second hand off someone nearby who breaks clios. if it doesnt change when lowered i might move them to the back and get some 30mm on the front or something like that

[Claire90]

just get a sport wide track up front would make soo much more sense and work from there

 

[JakeJ]

UPDATE:

Not much of a major update but one none the less.

Got my 182 style exhaust and its being fitted on the 9th january and i cant wait.



Prima racing tips





The 90' bend is getting replaced because its shot and has holes in it. Its also really badly bent.

Got some of these through the post just before christmas.



Jean Ragnotti signature stickers so i placed them accordingly.











And a few pictures of the car after 3 weeks of abuse through the back roads, with the odd bit of slush, ice and a lot of water.











Next update will be when the exhaust is fitted

C&C welcome

[NoahRobinson07]

IMO, I think the orange is too lary.

It needs to be lower on those wheels.

F**k me get some smaller spacers.

Again ^ My opinion. You don't have to do anything or agree to it!

 

[Mister_Lee]

Ragnotti stickers look good!

 

[King-cam]

New exhaust FTW..old exhaust for the bin in my opinion

 

[guysy]

All that comes to mind is the orange splitter is s**t...

 

[chapperzuk]

I think it looks fairly smart. It's something different but it works fairly well I think. Look forward to seeing pictures of the exhaust changed though. Might be worth getting some silvatec bulbs and possibly some wind deflectors imo.

 

[Rubicon_]

Looks good bar the orange splitter.

 

[JakeJ]

BIG UPDATE:

So yesterday the car went off to powerflow to have the 182 exhaust fitted. It took them all day to do so i couldnt get any pictures However went out today and got a few. Its not where i wanted it but it will do. So for the pictures.

Please excuse the dirt











After tax and insurance at the end of the month i will be getting spacers for the rear and saving hard for a new set of rota's ready for summer.

C&C welcome,
jake

 

[Brad Smith]

How come you never got a 182 bumper, the exhaust looks like its sitting too high, have you gone into the trim ?

 

[JakeJ]

yeah the guys who fitted it put it into the trim i wanted it done like the 182 but the obviously didnt understand. oh well.

 

[spanishbhoy]

id be furious with that mate... far to far into the bumper. not only is it not in the position you wanted but they ate into half your bumper.... if they wernt sure how you wanted it they shouldnt have done it. please cut that smurf off

 

[jaycanning]

Once it's lowered the exhaust wont/hopefully look as bad to be honest

 

[alexr19]

Nice car!
The orange isn't too bad.
But it's not a 2 litre, that's the only fail on what is a very nice car :/

 

[Mcaff]

the f**k have they done to your bumper?

i recon this could look epic if you lost the spoiler and the orange.. plus droped it a fair bit.

 

[mugglesquop]

never seen a 4x4 clio before
