Clio 172 cup refresh

[Ryan Williams]

Only a small update, hated the plain insert with no numbers! Fresh paint, decal & lacquered, looks much better 👌

Car is booked in for the rear 1/4 rust repair Monday so i made a start stripping it back this morning to save them some time.

How far are they going with the repair? New quarter or patching it?

Patching this side as below shows unless it's a lot worse when they start chopping away, but it looks fairly isolated.
The drivers side will be done further down the line..

What’s the drivers side like? Is the fuel filler area ok?

There is a small amount of rust starting on the filler area and where the bumper meets the panel. They are going to give me a better idea on cost when it's in next week.

Mine had work done around that area, not too sure how much is filler and how much is metal though. It looks pretty much entirely filler though. Thank god there is a door covering it haha.

I have full quarter panels so will hopefully have it put in to above the fuel filler but they'll let me know once they've looked at it..

Few update photos from the bodyshop.

Decent repait that. When you get it back pop doorcard off and cavity wax the inside.

Will be putting it back together myself so cavity wax is a good shout 👍
