Im sure you can get them from halfords, look up the clio model in the book. or ebay. £7 a can i think

BTW looks smart mate! i think when the wheels are white itl look well nice! and once its lowered! :rasp: glad you like the tints mate, i think there looking good!

just got back from halfrauds, they don't do odessey blue, which is a bit of a con, apparently they will mix it for me at £17.99 a can. which is a rip off compared to the £7.99 for all other colours :mad:
annoyed to say the least, anyway, i was thinking of sending them to the body shop to be painted as it will work out around the same price im hoping,
hope this helped anyway!

it will cost soooooooooo much more getting them done professionally if thats what you mean, if you dont wana paint it yourself your honestly better off buying blue side strips, and bumpers. you can find them cheap, ive been looking ;) and that halfords paint is a rip off a that price!! get on ebay

I was quoted 60 for each side strip, and 120 each for front and back bumper. Im not too sure about your paint, it must be a hard colour to find. i think in clifton moor they have a spray shop wich might mix the paint up for cheaper. cheaper than halfords anyway. google it, there must be somewhere online you can order it from

I have a feeling renault will be expensive:dead:

Anyway, definitely needs lowering, you have worse arch gap than Gally atm. The tints are rank as well. Once it's lowered, and if the tints were gone, I think the white touches would look a lot nicer.

would anyone recommend changing the exhaust on a 1.2? seems a bit of a waste of money, but want a bit of noise :p any ideas?
 
  White mx5 mk1!
If you want some noise then do it, I put some dirty sportex one on mine, it was cheap loved it on short drives but when it came to motorways I bloody hate it, but k-tec do some brilliant ones

get an exhaust by all means but its a 1.2 so dont spend any money on one. jsut buy a back box, you dont need a full catback.

i put a cherry bomb on my old non sport. loved it, sounded amazing, was cheap as they come (£35 i think) and wasn't as loud as people moan about. probably no louder than my silenced 172 exhaust

ive been looking at a cherry bomb! defo not wanting a full system, as it will only be taken off when i come to sell, where can i get a cherry bomb in the UK though?

ebay mate, just cut the old back box off and weld it on, just need to buy some sort of bracket you can weld on top. i used two exhuast hangers welded together, worked a treat. cost me like £50 for the cherry bomb and to have it fitted and what not at my mates garage
