Blue and White clio so far....

[Joss.]

Just thought i'd make a thread of my progress so far, as my project thread is full of boring pictures, so just wanted to show how much car is now
still got a long way to go, but new wheels on tuesday (fingers crossed)
so far i have done:
*painted bullets, badges and dash strips gloss white
*windows tinted (light smoke, not like a van )
*cleaned inside and out, best and cheapest mod IMO

plans are, new wheels and lowwws

 

[Wests Renault]

good start mate, got potentional there

colour coding the door strips and bumpers would look mint too

 

[jamie.91]

*windows tinted (light smoke, not like a van )

Looks a little more than a light smoke lol

Looks spot on IMO bar tints

 

[James28]

As said good start, sounds like you got some good plans
Agree with colour coding. Would improve it no end. Even if you left the bullets white but colour coded the bump strips themselves.

General rule is stick to genuine Renault alloys, also helps in the event of an accident, insurance and such

 

[Wests Renault]

wheels look alright for aftermarket ones!

 

[It's.Lee]

OEM brother, stick to Renault parts you will be fine.

i have claimed them on my insurance mate, should be no problems with them

 

[Austin-182]

How much did you pay for the wheels?

 

[Dave Hester]

Please dont start colour coding everything white, like bumpstripes and diamonds etc, believe me it will look sh1t

That's as much white as I'm doing, everything else will be colour coded blue to match the car

 

[Joss.]

And Austin182, they were 180, but in need of two new tyres, cant say on the condition of them until they arrive

 

[Joss.]

finally got my wheels on with some new rubber, on the way home took a few quick photos, sorry about terrible quality, had to use my phone

opinions welcome

Lower it a hundred feet and it will be sat very nicely!

i know i knowwwww, bit of a monster truck at the mo, but spent more than this months wages on wheels and tyres lows to follow soon, what did you use on your car?

 

[Kieran..]

did the new tyres sort the 'wobbly wheel'

 

[andywa]

Good start mate. Looks tidy.

 

[Joss.]

did the new tyres sort the 'wobbly wheel'

the wobbly wheel still remains a mystery took it to get balanced etc, but was fine, so swapped it onto the back and no problems so far...fingers crossed!

 

[jjsweeney]

Did ya sort out the paint?

 

[Leeshez]

Looking good .

 

[Joss.]

thanks for the feedback, Leeshez and andywa

and jjsweeney, saw you got your bits back from thee shack, how well is the match?

 

[Joss.]

Found a load of old stickers from fast car mag today, and had the day off college, was bored of Fifa, so did this to my car...most of you will hate!

any my personal favourite addition, bit childish...

 

[Mark_]

What are your plans for the car..? Guessing you were bored ^

 

[Adam_vxR]

looks great mate , baring the stickers but hey each to there own , once its lowered it looks really nice also like the idea off colour coding the bumpers:rasp:

 

[joe18two]

Good start m8, i would take the stickers off though

 

[Joss.]

i was very bored yeaaah im not sure whether to add more stickers, or take the current ones off, we shall see. my plans for the car are to get it lowered within the next month on coilovers, possible colour code, and sport seats...after that i think its done. thanks for the comments

 

[Christopher]

Not sure.

It screams 'first car' to me. Looks pretty naff.

Get rid of the stickers, buy some 172 Aliums, drop it and colour code. Done.

 

[metalhead172]

Remove the drivers side rear window and sell ice cream out of it

 

[BlazeYouQuick]
