Apex'd, Cup splittered and Turini'd

[len_beach]

She's getting there. V6 spoiler still to fit when I have the locks removed and the bumpers, bonnet and doors resprayed. Not until the shat weather has died down though.
Comments welcome kids.
Be nice though as it's costing me a fortune LOL.

 

[Clart]

nice, don't spoil it with a v6 spoiler. oh the irony!

You think it will spoil it Ras-Clart?
I think it will finish it off nicely, something a little different. And if it turns out to be pants, whip it off and sell it as they go for loads.

Looks great!!!

Love the silver. specially on the 172s mmmmmm pure sex

 

[Josh27]

Looks gorgeous mate. I'm not sure on the V6 spoiler though, may be a little too over the top?
Though really does look good as it is

 

[len_beach]

I'm more and more impressed with the way it looks everytime I see it. Makes all the funds and hard work worth it. The bird hates it more and more every day though LOL.

Anyone fancy a quick 'shop of a spoiler on it?

 

[Jamie _Swales]

is that garforth tesco carpark?

 

[len_beach]

You got it Jamie. I was in there earlier so I thought i'd take a couple of shots out of the pants rain.

 

[len_beach]

Do you still think it looks like a downgrade with the Turinis Jamie?

 

[Lagerlout]

That could be one of a thousand silver 172's on here with the Cup exterior bits, mine included. Still looks nice though fella.

I'm always unsure about different spoilers. I don't like the V6 spoiler on the 172/182's - doesn't look like it fit's right to me.

I have the Cup spoiler on mine, and while it looks better than the standard spoiler in profile, I think it looks worse from the back - Would be better with a clear brake light imho.

Cup from rear

Profile of Cup

 

[thedoc]

looks well - it does need a bigger rear spoiler.. go for it.

 

[len_beach]

Great minds and all that matey. Another good reason I want a V6 spoiler and not a cup. Plus my twin 3.5'' is cut into my back bumper and not sat below, not many of those either .

 

[badinvincible]

Cup spoiler over a the V6 one?

 

[Ali]

stuning mate...like it alot.

 

[Gareth]

looks good, mine will look like that soon, got my cup splitter, cup spoiler currently being sprayed, turinis next.

 

[len_beach]

Liking that Lagerlout, exhaust is different with the 182 surround?

I know what you mean about the brake light. Could maybe get a 'Clio 172' vinyl cover from the 'bay LOL.

Any fresh pics of yours Ali?

 

[Jamie _Swales]

No i change my mind, looks alot better with these wheels (though i would get them done in anthracite)

Still havnt seen you about though

Or even one with 'Turbo' on it. lol. :clown:

What do you mean by different?

You're onto a winner with that one.

Different is good, never seen it done like that before. Sits better than mine at the mo.

I think anthracite is a bit passe now, for me anyway. I like my cars nice and clean looking, almost unmodified.
I've not seen you about recently either mate. I used to see you all the time when I had my Chavalier but I only really drive the Clio on a weekend as I get the train into Leeds. I was round your way last week as well for that charity match at Garforth Town, thought I might spot the blue beast.

 

[len_beach]

Can anyone shop SteveV6's spoiler on for me?

 

[Lagerlout]

Aaah I see.

I'd like to take the credit for the idea but I can't Cli0172 was the originator. And I blatantly copied him. lol.

The Bear had a twin 3" cut into his bumper on the same day I had mine done. Looked and sounded nice, but was a bit loud for him on the motorway!!

Mine sits perfectly when cold,but moves out and left a little when warm. Only moves about 1/2", but it's noticeable because the surround is so close to it.

 

[GarethM]

very nice dude

 

[len_beach]

I need mine modding as it hangs to one side when cold then the other when warm. I'm going to have it looked at when I have it de-catted though the baffles are rattling a bit so I might have it changed.

Too loud, pah, girl LOL. Mine rumbles and growls nicely then you open it up and it screams like a dying bear. I heard it driven yesterday and loved it. 70-85 is a nightmare though.

No mate, tucked away in the car park.

I saw a Gordini Blue 182 one morning last week on the loop by the Elbow rooms in Leeds. Thought it might have been you. I was sat on the train looking down.
Not worth driving to work IMHO. Takes about 40 mins and costs £4.50 to park then the fuel. A train pass is only £45 a month. You get on at Garforth or East Garforth?

Cheers Lagerlout. I never thought of searching for a Trophy spoiler, only searched for V6. D'oh.
Looks good on there. I think mine needs it and with all due respect to Binnsy, I reckon it will look even better on mine.

Ay, off topic a little LOL. Still, if you want some car park passes for bond street NCP which knock parking down to £4.50, drop me a PM as I presume you are parking near Bar Home behind the Hilton and the UKI building etc.
Your 182 still standard?
