looks good mate..

I have been swithering on whether to change my HU, I think I will now.. (meaning I can put my sub and amp in too.)

 

[Reth Clio cup]

Looks sweet mate is it the old Prima demo car with the TBs

 

[RobFenn]

How big are those wheels?

Looks more of a (rather tasty)show off car than the intended street racer!

 

[RSTDL]

Cheer speeps - no its not the old prima demo car - very similar though - I custom fitted the actiul V6 fogs and surrounds into the bumper - looks mean! Wide arches would go down a treat now on this and the cup! Badge at rear courtesy of a vw bora! lol

I like those silver door inserts along with the 172 handles, nice touch! Hold on are they standard on the Mk1 172?

[RSTDL]

yUP, BUT THERE mK2 172 DOOR CARDS WITH mk2 DOOR HANDLES - U CAN FIRfit Mk1 door inserts into the black Mk 2 models.

 

[KDF]

yes i was going to say, my mk2 surround bit (that hold the leccy windows switches and leccy mirror bit) is black with glittery bits in it.

Is the mk1 surround silver ? might be worth the swap cause that looks good.

 

[RSTDL]

Yup - the Mk1 172 is as my pic above!

 

[patty]

looks mint mate

 

[teady172]

Is that a 172 interiror, ie seats etc?

 

[RSTDL]

yup teady!

 

[RSTDL]

onlty thing I cant so is fir the silver stereo dash bit - need to remove the entire top and bottom dash parts and dont know how to do it - the 1600 comes with a brushed aluminium finish - not solid silver!

 

[re_ewind]

thats f**kin mint mate! good job

 

[RSTDL]

Cheers peeps! Ive had it for 2 years now and only got around to posting pics today! Glad you all like it - I think its tres tasteful as opposed to tacky - subtle yet mean looking when your either behind it or in front - it turns alot of heads over here in Northern Ireland - coz theyre isnt another one like it! Rear bumper rattles like mad coz the way the exhaust is wrapped directly behind the exhaust pipe plate! Any suggestions as to how to stop this? Any suggestions as to how to make the car look better?

 

[paddymph]

lookin real good mate! Wondering whether i should get those silver things on my door instead of the glittery black ones, where could i source them?

cheers

 

[Fred@BTM]

So is that silver clio in the pics above a mk1 172???? or is it a 1.6 16V?????

 

[JJ172]

What make/model/size/offeset wheels are those Cupsize? And whose springs have you lowered it with?

 

[RSTDL]

Its a 1600 16V Mk2 with 137BHP ATF. They are Cromadora Arakna - V6 concept wheels - Italiam , £155 each rim they are 38 offset with 5mm spacers to sit them out more, and the springs are 35mm Pi until I can afford Leda coilovers for this and the cup! Prima stock the wheels!

Paddy, the silver door inserts are orderable from renault just get the door codes from a Mk1 172 - they only cost I think £20 each - alternatively spray yours iceburg silver with a can from Halfords or a professional job!

 

[JJ172]

Cupsize - the wheels look superb! What size tyres are you running and do you have any problems with them scrubbing under hard driving?

Cupsize - how long ago did you buy the wheels as theyre not on Primas web site and having searched Google I cant find any links for Cromadora...do you know if theyre still in business? Are the wheels 7x17 or 7.5x17?

 

[RSTDL]

The wheels and kit as far as I know are still available from Prima - there webpage is not up to date ring them and ask for sean - no is 01159391410 - the tyres are 205/40/17 - scrubbing at the rear with 4 heavy bastids - otherwise none two up! Spacers come with the kit coz the offset must be wrong - makes them stick out more though too!

cheers mate, think ill add it to my wishlist....... hmm, might get some next week?
