Hello i'm Danny and since 6 months owner of the 172,and really like the Clio.

modification:
15 inch Sport wheels for the winter
polished headlights
Xenon 6000K
group N Powersprint exhaust
carbon fibre wrapped roof/mirrors and some parts of the frontbumper

This week they get a high-gloss condense treatment so they will become very shiny

Major improvement. Especially getting rid of the exhaust

Prefere the 1st set of alloys though.

 

[subarufreak]

nice work!

 

[garlick988]

Nice work, love the carbon fibre roof! I have a sheet waiting to go on mine but wanted to see it first! Looks wicked

 

[PaulClioSport]

Welcome Dan! Car looks great, think i prefer the OZ F1's but each to there own taste

 

[andywa]

Looks spot on.

 

[Correy]

That's looks really clean buddy, is that iceberg or titanium ?

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

Thanks to you all.

@Paulcliosport: i really like the oz f1's too that's the reason why i bought them and sold the 17 inch effezeta wheels.
But some german styled wheels with a decent lowering that is what i like.
I know it's not everybody taste.

@correy : i think it's iceberg but i'm not sure i haven't look at the colorcode.

Get some tyres on those ronals and stick a photo up, thinking of getting some for mine.

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

The ronal's are not ready yet they getting this week a treatment .

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Thats iceberg, colour code 640, stunning.

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

I checked the colorcode and it was 640 so it is iceberg

A update about the Ronal Turbo's.

The company that gave the wheels a high-gloss condense treatment having problems with wheels that have a straight centre.
The outside ring is very shiny but the centre not.

Last week one wheel is send to Germany for testing by the company that selling the machine's

Yesterday they arrived back in The Netherlands and today i have looked at them,but they are not 100% good.
So i must waiting again :S

I don't know if high-gloss condense treatment is a good english word so here is a picture.

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

Finally the wheels are on,and yes it needs lowering

Re: Dan_The_Desmo 172 phase 1 on Ronal Turbo's

I know that the car must go lower , i'm looking for coilovers now.
AP i'm thinking off ,anyone got these?

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

Today i lowered the car with the Eibach Sportline springs and placed new front shocks.

 

[Paul172sport]

I prefer the OZ's tbh. really liking the wrap on the front bumper too!

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

Thanks, the OZ's are nice indeed but i prefer them for my winter-setup.
Now that i have plastidip'ed them in white i like them even more.

The wrapped frontbumper was a test and i loved it.

 

[Coops Mk1]

that will look epic on the ronals if you get coilovers, i like it alot like that as its a bit different

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

I agree the Ronals are at his best with coilovers and slammed to the ground.

Only there are alot of high speedbumps around my house that was the reason to decide for the Eibach Sportkit.

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

My steering-wheel is not in the best condition and today i bought a second hand steering wheel

 

[Craig.]

Absolutely love ph1s in iceberg silver :approve:

Not a fan of the carbon roof though.

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

Finished the wheels let the summer begin.

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

Wheels done in a antracite colour en new pilot 3 tyres.

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I'd stick with the F1's personally..

 

[Dan_The_Desmo]

The F1's needs some work and a new colour.
I'm thinking of spraying them in the original silver.
