I will be painting over the red calipers soon (in black) as i dont like the blue and red together lol

 

[jaye2992]

much much better, now you need to lower it :rasp:

 

[JackJack]

I think the red/blue/black looks fine mate.

 

[James811]

yea, the front badge is white though :rasp: haha. So that will be going the same blue as the wheel badges or black. And Jaye it should be getting lowered in a couple of months once i sort out my engine troubles. Any more opinions?

 

[Wests Renault]

love the black and blue combo

IMO I'd get cheap coilovers rather than 60mm springs, they made the ride really crashy on our DCI.

Colour code the door strips and bumper mouldings and it'll look tidy

 

[Bob the Frog]

^^ I second this. From what I understand, the standard uprights bottom out easily with 60mm springs on them.... with cheapo coilies you get to play with different heights. Win-Win situation.

 

[MDP91]

Yeah, mate get some Rokkor coilovers like I did, mates alot of difference and you can have a play with the height. Loving the blue and black theme though.

 

[James811]

Cheers guys. Im going to do the front badge and maybe the back one the same blue colour. With these rokkor coilovers do you need anything else or are they just a straight fit? Cos with 60mm springs you have to change the shocks, do you need to do anything like that with the coilovers??

Cheers

The badges would be nice touch

The Rokkor coilovers come with everything you need, if you look on my thread you'll see a pic of it just out the box. You will need spacers for the front wheels otherwise they will rub on the suspension. But only get hubcentric spacers, im currently running 25mm but they are HUGE and weigh a ton so 15mm hubcentric spacers would probably be fine. People have said you need adjustable camber bolts, i bought some but never needed them so I got my money back front K-tec.

 

[James811]

Ok, how much were the spacers? And how adjustable is the hight of the coilovers (like 40-80 or 30-70 etc) for the front and rear?

 

[Jekyll]

looks good mate, tyre shine looks so much better. black me up baby!!

 

[Whiskerz16v]

The rokkors say 30-70 for the front but go sooooooo much lower going by what folk have said...

The rear it says something like 40-60... Though some end up getting custom springs for the rear to go lower aka Clio_stu older 1.2 had 90mm rears lol

 

[K1NGY]

colour code
40mm springs or coilies fella

done

 

[James811]

colour coding is on my list to do, then lower then maybe an RS grill to finish off. thanks for the comments guys. ill put a new update in a week or so and let you all know how im getting on
