Did a few more things to my clio ;o

[Kemixx]

Gmax rear shocks, phase2/3 rear boot strip, renault centercaps for my TSW's, painted drums and calipers blue, clio decals each side (some won't like, but I love ) mini fire extinguisher on parcel shelf (;p) and erm.. painted up inner arches and stuff. Anyway, this is how it looks so far..

 

[Djw John]

nice saxo

 

[Adamhodg]

mini fire extinguisher on parcel shelf

What you got a fire extingusher for?
you planning on torching the car lol?

Jokin btw!

Sorry mate not to my taste but as long as your happy!

 

[Kemixx]

Lol. Saxo? wtf?

And the fire extinguisher just.. looks good

 

[Middo]

get it colour coded next and lowered properly, and not much for those decals lol, other than that looks tidy

mini fire extinguisher? I'll leave the puns to someone more brave

 

[Matt 16v]

also its not much good on the parcel shelf tho, by the time u get to it, it wont be a small fire anymore....lol

 

[Middo]

^^^lmao hodgey it would seem

 

[Spiezels]

haha, sorry to say mate i bet 95% of the ppl on here wont like it lol, good luck with ure modding wish i had money to mod my car.

 

[Matteh]

now lower it! will look much better

 

[chris509]

i like the two diferent fonts used for 'clio' on the mudflaps.............

 

[Spiezels]

yeh defo agree make it soooooooo low will cool

 

[lewisniven]

not my bag, but as they say, as long as ur happy, and yeah, lower it properly.

 

[Kemixx]

I know a lot won't like it, because it's totally off the style most people on here seem to go for. I personally, have it exactly how I always wanted it. I'm not a massive fan of lowering it. If I was goign to, I wouldn't go any lower than about 10mm I don'[t think, which seems pointless

As for colour coding, I might do yeah. I don't like the RT bumpers. Too square. So I might just get mine professionally sprayed.

 

[Adamhodg]

Yea get it lowered mate itll look loads better!

 

[tommyboy]

interesting! not my cuppa

but good effort!

you've gotta lower it mate, otherwise you may as well have put range rover in 1 ft letters on the side...

its not that hard to do

Is that a compliment or sarcasm? I seem to be finding it hard to tell if people are being serious or not on these forums compared to anywhere else.

Yeah. Only thing is though, I just spent out like £50 on the rear g max shocks, and I can't really lower the front and not the back, and I can't really afford new front and back right now. :/

You never know mate. Just take the comments with a pinch of salt.

back is a torsion bar, you only need the front springs, then just do the torsion bar.....well thats how it was with my valver

 

[Kemixx]

Cheers. By the way, you're not far from me. I'm in stafford. Got a few mates from up in cheadle/leek and my mum was originally from there.

 

[Djw John]

Lol. Saxo? wtf?

And the fire extinguisher just.. looks good

Is it not one? Dammit I hate all these debadged cars, really struggle to know what they are

If you like it mate then fair enough but its pretty much the opposite of what I would do!

 

[Kemixx]

Oh. In that case, I could. Which bar is that?

Yeah, it's a clio

What would you have done different, out of a matter of interest? ;/

 

[Djw John]

Personnaly I would have put Clio dynamique or ph1 172 wheels on with really good rubber, lowered it, colour coded and got a 3.5" round rolled in exhaust and that would be all for the exterior. OIn the inside wither buckets and harnesses or Valver/Willy interior with a nice set of components up front, a sub in the back and no 6x9s in sight!

 

[Leeshez]

Colour code, lower and loose the clio sticker. Other wise it looks mint

 

[Kemixx]

I only put the clio stickers on today took hours.

As for lowering, if it's possibl;e for me to low the back like someone said with the gmax's I have on, i'd consider lowering up to about 30mm.

As for colour coding, i'm not sure how much it'd cost for the front and rear to be done though. They'd need to be scored etc wouldn't they?

there located behind black platsic caps, you'll seem em when u take your rear wheels off, theres two (one on each side), you need to make a removal tool out of a big socket, some all thread and a few nuts and washers, dont worry about specifics theres plenty of guides out there, but basically u remove the bars then jack up the rear beam and bang the bars back in, and it lowers the rear....its pretty simple really...just read up on everything well before u start and do all the preparations and you wont find it too hard

it was sarcasm.........

 

[fUbAr]

i think it looks awsome!

where did you get the clio graphics from, might get some for my car?

 

[Kemixx]

Well keep your bullshit comments and poor attempts at insults to yourself. I'm not here to be made fun off for f**k sake. I was after some constructive criticism and comments which I have from a few decent members. I don't need s**t from the idiots on here.

I'm starting to think the £15 I spent on this membership and rear sticker was a waste of money.

 

[Kemixx]

Thanks man. I got them from ebay. I think it came to about £9 for both sides inc postage, and it's pretty decent vinal. The guy supplies all different colours (and sizes I think!). Here, I found the listing:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=72212&item=180041878566

I'm glad SOMEONE likes the decals.

i agree.... think theyre clever mods for the money... decals are a touch of class

 

[miltage2]

not sure about the stickers!

RELAX :star:

I get some nasty comments about things I've done to my car too, but hey - I'm not the only one :nono:

Your car looks tidy, honestly some things not to my personal taste but then its YOUR CAR at the end of the day.
You might even make a few changes yourself further down the line

My advice would be
See what way you can get the car lowered all-round (about 30mm)
Bolt your extinguisher to the passenger footwell, half-under the dash maybe would be cool
Make a stealth parcel shelf for your 6x9s (I'm only guessing you have a set) and upgrade your front speakers for better sound quality

If you do decide to get a sub in your boot - sell your 6x9s!

Hope this helps

[dangerous dave]

i could do something with that car... colour code it and whack on a 16v front bumper, bonnet, arches, and while im at it some turbines or phase 2 rims.. i think the best thing you can do with a lower spec car is make it a replica rather than what most people see as a chav'd/boy'd up 1.2/1.4..

a girl on here has a green 1,2 with a 16v front end on it and it looks really good, the only trouble is the 16v bumper wont go on as its to wide..

 

[Christopher]

i wouldn't drive that with a stolen face.

 

[Christopher]

although, to be fair, it only needs tidying up.

remove those bloddy stickers, lower it on a decent set up, some mk1 172 wheels and decent tyres (as said above really)

...maybe a valver conversion for the front end. job done. i think those mods would suit the white too.

 

[dumpy]

I think you've got a good base to work on there buddy!!

I would get some clear side repeaters and get rid of those badges around them!!

I wouldn't personally have the stickers but its your preference!!

Cheers,

Dumpy

 

[Zmaster2k]

Remove the decals!

Without them will look mint, smooth over the front end and have colour coded
