Plans are to spend the weekend on the car, sorting out all the niggles & giving it a good clean. Got my new splitter to fit also.

P.S, anyone know where to get some decent seatcovers from? I bought some cheap ones off ebay but they dont fit the shape of the seat properly so have ripped lol.
bullets look sweet mate ive just done mine by hand! lets say it took some time!
 
Been busy the last few weekends!

Went to the west mids photo day on the 23rd and met afew of the lads, Habitual took this sweet pic the Clio:

Shall be fitting this on the weekend, along with my skoda splitter thats been under my bed for god knows how long :rasp:
 
That looks great mate, will defo clean up the interior!

Its probably one of the best mods you can do, considering that's what you hold every time your in the car haha

Cheers pal :)

Yeah deffo, nice wheel & seats are a must haha! wouldnt mind changing the dash leds to white but its alot of hastle haha. hows your bbs?
 
I Agree, seats will make it so much nicer to be inside

And good thanks, had loads of good comments which is nice, you gonna get some new rear spacers?

good good, they suit the car to a tee mate. nahhh cant be arsed tbf, the 20's looked spot on so I dont think anything smaller would look right. Gonna keep the money and look into getting the paintwork nicer
 
Cheers bud

Fair doos mate, the lensos look good how they sit anyway :)

How are the wheel arches? Did you just roll them a little in the end?

cheers mate :)

Ive left them as they were. theyre rolled, but it was rubbing on the bumper so that needed trimming. I cba haha. Id probably need to mount some stretched tyres aswell, but its all money lol
 
Wheels on! :D

In love with it haha, really smartens up the interior
