Exhaust looks much better

Not keen on the photoshop effects though!

Cheers!

Lol I was just trying to make the car stand out abit on the boring background, really need to find a decent location to take some!

 

[brownale01]

[StevieG-09]

Its looking really nice that
Get some spacers on the front!

 

[JCC]

That exhaust always looks perfect on 172s. Nice.

 

[fearless]

Get them drums painted black!

Looks mint otherwise.

 

[Daniel]

Paint the Drums black, fit some spacers and/or bigger wheels and that is a wicked looking little car!!

 

[Hutchie]

looks tidy fella

Cheers lads, completly forgot about the drums!

Future plans are:

Paint drums black

182FF alloys in standard anth or if they need a referb I'll get them done in graphite

25mm spacers front and 10mm spacers rear

Will be 100% how I want it then!

Hoping to get all that done by the end of september, Just need to save up some "dolla"!

Here's a pic of the beading on the roof this afternoon!

 

[Maccy]

Looking lovely and tidy!

 

[Nisi]

what style window tints do you have on your car?

 

[@rt]

Thanks!

The tints are medium smoke back 3 and security film front 2 with nothin on the windscreen

Do people think Turinis or 182 alloys would suit this better? (in graphite)

Aaaaand do you think I should keep the standard billabong seats + door cards, or get the 1*2 ones?

Cheers!

I usually de-colourise the background to do that Car is looking p**n. Nice colour too

The 182 alloys aren't that different from the ones you have on there now, so probably Turinis

I've never liked the billabong interior, so I would say get 1*2 interior!

Cheers for the imput bud, im 90% sure now on the 1*2 interior, still 50/50 on the alloys though! suppose it will come down to whats available at the time really.

 

[Tigger]

Nice beading mate, what wax is she wearing?

 

[@rt]

She's got some autoglym SRP on, with a layer of turtle wax origional on top (lol, will get some autoglym stuff when it runs out, just using it up! does the job though!)

 

[Ali]

Looks nice. Got any pics without blurring the background!

 

[Tigger]

Nicely, mine got a light coat of Collinite about 5 weeks ago, still beading well too
-just washed & managed to get topped up with DoDo Blue Velvet before the next shower

Offft very nice! I'm abit of a novice at polishing/waxing so turtle wax was the first I've ever bought! lol Looking forward to trying some decent stuff! bet yours smells lovely! lol

 

[Tigger]

Me too - I had to do about 5 runs to get it finished in between the sun-showers lol :star:

I haven't waxed the bumpers or the lower part of the doors yet - I always do those last

Little update, Have a list of things to do over the next month, so watch this space, these are as follows:

Anthracite Turinis (picking up saturday)
Spacers (25mm front 5mm rear)
Rear badges graphite ("clio" + diamond) (Renault sport badge already removed)
Boot release button painted cyclone blue
Turini center diamonds painted cyclone blue
Getting rid of the 2.0 16v bullets, replacing with anthracite 16v bullets with cyclone blue writing.
Paint the drums black
Ghetto de-cat

Then I can honestly say I dont think I'll be spending another penny on her.

all the above should be finished by mid october. (just in time for the karting mega meet!)

I'm sure alot of you will be pleased to hear the RS badges + 2.0 bullets are going, as am I
