Clio 1.2 Project



  Clio 1.2
Hey guys, here's my Clio I've owned it since April 2010. I'm not really sure what I will be doing to to but I do have a rough idea. Also the bonus is I am set on a Clio 1*2 as my next car and I can transfer most things off this Clio on to the new one when I get it!

Here's a pic which is what it sort of looks like now

It's looking a bit worse off at the moment, splitter is off passenger front fog light is in the boot both due to the snow a while back, wheels are kerbed and square but they're winter wheels, the car is covered in scratches big thanks to the w**k stains who put a cone on my roof, local cats and people who have studs on their jeans.

So I wrapped the plastic trims just before FCS last year and it lasted a while, but the rear started to peel and the front has split and is all over the place so that will be getting fixed soon - NEVER use vinyl from Homebase no matter how desperately you need it.

I have a new set of BBS style wheels (chrome lip and black centre) in the house waiting for some money to get some tyres on them.
Would like the windows blacked out to keep with the stealth look...
Also have started to smooth a lot of things myself first time was on my 172 rear bumper

Still a little rough around the edges needs one more layer of filler and then sand back will sort this out very soon, front bumpers will probably have some smoothing to and all the black plastics will be colour coded or sprayed satin black.

Thanks guys, The wrap was from homebase I put some on some on of the guys cars before and sold it shortly so I never knew how it went, Tbh mate as long as it was black I was happy with it but it did turn out to be a decent match, I war wrapping the rear bumper trim 11pm the day before FCS so it was very rushed but lasted well...

I want it to go lower but then it will be totally impractical as a daily...

Lower than that imo would kill it. Looks a great height as jesus said.... and you cant argue with jesus. :) also, whats the splitter off of? looks really good!
 
  Clio 1.2

It's the Cupra R splitter about £40 from a dealer
