Many Things
Welcome to the project log for my Clio 182 Black Gold. It's got both the cup packs etc. I've got to be completely truthful even though its not red, I prefer it over my trophy.
A few details about the car:
75k Miles
Belts done at K-tec at 63k Miles
Brembo Discs
Well Serviced
Custom Restrictive Stainless exhaust.
Stainless Steel Foot Rest
A few niggles I found with the car when I bought it:
Lack of cup splitter
Scrape on the passenger side bumper
Paint Swirled to death
A few pics when I picked it up:
So as I've been breaking a few of my cars I had some parts that were eager to find their way onto the BG.
40mm Apex Springs
Small Aerial
RS mats
Megane ph2 Splitter
Brand New whiteline RARB
That left me with this:
Obviously the scrape on the bumper was annoying me, so I've since had that resprayed and blended it into the wing.
My trophy spoiler arrived from France so that got painted BG at the same time
I also upgraded all of the lights in the car with white L.E.D's, I changed the interior light, map light, boot light, glovebox light, sidelights and numberplate light. Small touches but make a nice difference.
Also got my hands on a yozza, which unleashed somemore ponies and made a dramatic difference on top end power.
I've also fitted an ITG Maxogen, which there will be pics of soon when I'm happy with the engine bay
On the engine side of things I replaced the standard gearbox mount with this
Couple of other random pics
The state of the swirls in the paint
If you're now wondering where the trophy bit comes into it here it is
These masterpieces are waiting to go down to BG motorsport for a check over and rebuild if they need them, although they've only done 25k miles so shouldnt need doing
The next thing to do is clean it, machine polish it and fit my new style Renault sport badge.
I'm hoping to get the wheels refurbished before FCS, aswell as my custom Eibach Springs fitted
Oh and picked this up from Chris Powell at the weekend, along with some carbon interior goodies
Thanks for looking and keep checking as its sure to turn out into quite a nice car.
FAO anyone with genuine trophy turini's and recaros, give me a pm when you want to sell up so I Can complete the BG trophy
