I had a plate welded over the reg recess and lock to create the smoothed effect. A solenoid was then fitted to pop the boot open.

Dont try it with fibreglass or filler as it will eventually look crap (saw a megane with a fibre-filled tailgate yesterday and the fibreglas had come loose, cracked and popped out - very nasty!)

As for garages in UK, no idea mate.

@nedbeard ur car does look v sweet! What rear valance is that?

 

[nedbeard]

Thanx

The rear bumper is a combination of the original and a rieger valance for a fiat bravo, shortened, bonded and fibreglassed to it. The plate recess is an aftermarket fibreglass jobbie. I removed the original licence plate light and fitted it to the new one.
The skirts are also bravo items, from the abarth kit (fibreglass copys), shortened and bonded to to car.

Theres a full spec sheet for the car in the "other clios" gallery if you need to know more details (its a bit long).

Ned.
