So i've been on here since I got my clio in Sep 2014 but never actually got round to showing you guys my car and keeping a project thread.

It was passed on to me by my parents for my 21st birthday. My dad maintained the car very well so it was in perfect condition with great bodywork/paint and mechanically sound. As with anyones first car, i had to modify it at least a bit. I wanted to keep it clean but a bit more sporty. I'll try and list the things i've done to it over the last couple of years.

First thing on the cards was a wheel refurb so I decided to go with black. And obviously the obligatory CS Hekos and Silvervisions.

Next up was Plastidipping the badges. Also decided to do the lower part of the front bumper too as i wasn't a fan of the silver.

The car developed a very annoying knocking noise from the front wheels so had a look around the front suspension. Might swell give it a good clean while you can.

Turns out the knock was knackered front shocks. So obviously man maths kicked in and i decided a set of AP Coilovers would be the perfect way to sort the 4x4 stance. Also fitted some H&R 20mm Spacers on the rear.

How it sat after they were fitted. It has since been lowered more.

I then fitted an induction kit for a little bit of noise.

And that's basically where it is at now. Not really many plans for it as I intend to swap it for something quick when circumstances allow. Here's some more pics just to whore it out a bit.
