Added some colour!

[Greeny.]

Painted all my badges and diamonds Ford Graphite Grey, the same (ish) colour as my wheels, the rear badges are still drying so no rear shots. Also did my calipers yellow along with the 2.0 16v detail on my bullets even though these need redoing by someone with a steady hand

Cup spoiler is on its way as my rear end is crying out for one, so hopefully that will be sprayed up and on next month.

Looks tidy mate the Yellow goes well with the black

 

[guysy]

I really like that.

Stealth look to it.

Great mods.

 

[Ian]

Not usually a fan of parts being sprayed odd colours just for the fun of it, but that does actually look good. :approve:

 

[jim cook]

Very nice, very tidy do like that

fair play matey

 

[clio_luke]

thats a beaut!
will look amazing when the cup spoiler is on.
get some pics up when you have the rear badges on.

 

[chris_p]

[Darmon]

I'm sooooooo glad you've posted these pictures up- its what i'm in the process of doing! Same colours - i think it looks good mate

I was starting to think about doing the wheels - now i know to

Pushed hard! I was surpised it stayed there myself but it seems quite happy and hasnt moved since I fitted it.


Thanks for the comments everyone, I wasnt 100% sure on the wheel diamonds being colour coded and was gunna do them yellow but I think that might have been abit overkill with the bright colours!

 

[Sam]

imo, spray the renault badges in the middle of the wheels yellow to.

would look wicked!

 

[Greeny.]

hmm maybe, to much yellow imo will look proper tacky though going by some other cars ive seen on here.

 

[Ash87]

looks gd, cup spoiler will finish it off.

 

[Mr Burns]

lol, I always sell my upgrade when it arrives for around £200 unopened and keep this old 'beast' I got free from work. Its near dieing though.

and thanks

 

[whatisjustis]

Looking lovely as ever fella'.

How did you actually manage to squeeze the CAF that far down the front of the engine though!?

 

[*Hutchy1990*]

Really nice car mate

Cant remember 100% as it was a little while ago but apart from some cut fingers it wasnt to bad. I removed the air box, acoustic valve and managed to fit that 120mm pipe down to the fog light with it attached directly into the airbox. Ever since ive had the direct air feed ive lost around 5mpg.

 

[whatisjustis]

I really need to remove my accoustic valve but can't figure out what the hell I'm looking for.

 

[hopey-182]

one beasty looking rs clio that is what suspension set up you on there and whats it like.

[Beef-Mc]

Looks good.

 

[Tigger]

The yellow actualy looks great on that - very nice

 

[Whiteley]

Always liked this car, had it as my background for a while when I was deciding between 172/182's/colours!

 

[WILLIE]

Stunner of a car. The yellow suits it really well.

Its the great thing thats attached to your airbox near your fog light I had to remove part of my wheel liner to get it out, not sure if it can be done any other way.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Nice! I think Im going to have my alloys painted that colour, and I'll do my badges too.

What process did you use to paint the badges, and where did you get the paint?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Ah! Is it this: http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_161875_langId_-1_categoryId_165505

Did you put any lacquer/sealant on the top?

 

[Greeny.]

sanded, white plastic primer, ford graphite grey, lacquer x 2/3.

And yeah thats it, its a 90% match to my wheels which where powercoated before I bought them.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

I assume this is the sort of lacquer you used:?
