b3nje · Jul 7, 2006

alluminium oxide paper its basically sandpaper for metal took ages to take down though i almost gave up me and my dad where taking turns blasting away at it worth the effort thought as poilishing round the renault sport logo would have been an pain in the ass, glad you like it :approve:

damutz · Jul 7, 2006

Loving the whole look fella, looks mint !

Nick_R182 · Jul 7, 2006

Engine bay looks cool. Have you sanded the renaultsport off the top of the inlet manifold bit? Not a fan of the kit, dont think it suits the car but is certainly different.

Nick_R182 · Jul 7, 2006

^^^ ignore my question, i type slow lol!

Middo · Jul 7, 2006

agree with fred paint the silver thing black and it'll look the nuts! personally i love it, never been much for that front bumper but looks quite mean in real life (on andys anyway). I def need to harass you about engine conversions as well, considering one on mine in the next year when i've got some no claims!

it's got a sunroof...so must be a conversion.

Alan · Jul 7, 2006

Sure....why not??

Tyson-182 · Jul 7, 2006

One of the nicer modified cars. I like it!

Tyson.

Batman · Jul 7, 2006

yea its had a conversion got the 2.0 from matt black installed it with some help at a garage i know sent it to renault to get it coded, renault were assholes, got car took down to matt - matt sorted it, got home gear box went, new gear box, clutch is slipping after 5 month think all my problems have been due to the relase bearing gonna put in a new paddle clutch, is it worth the hassle? it certainly is!
its stripped out inside 2 buckets no airbags what so ever no a/c or other toys but it flys when all is good

Justin · Jul 7, 2006

Different, i like the rear, but not too keen on the front tbh, engine bay looks nice

16v_jon · Jul 7, 2006

very unique car i like it

Slug172 · Jul 7, 2006

I love it. I would either put a dummy air intake on the opposite side or paint that one black, put the original wing mirrors back on and for the engine bay match the red elbow up with a red strut brace, get a carbon battery cover and an alloy header tank. Very nice though!

Batman · Jul 7, 2006

Thanks everyone for the comments, Seems that most people with black clios like it

i've noted a few sudjestions that back up my future plans still plenty of work to do it seems like it never ends!!!!

Christopher · Jul 7, 2006

you've got balls, i'll give you that.

looks like a lot of work went into that!...nice one fella.

jonnyjogpants · Jul 7, 2006

looking real good mate keep it up

KyleB · Jul 7, 2006

i like it, and have to admit i like that cold air intake.

might look better in red though :S

TheCake · Jul 7, 2006

I'd change the wheels to something like a 17" split rim black spokes with a polished silver rim, the silver cold air mouth paint black and maybe go for a stealth exhaust.... big brake kit and oh momma!
