How can I improve my clio?!

[Tom__West]

Hi everyone.. I've just bought a 2003 Renault Clio 1.5 Dci and want to make it look as good as possible! I've already got tinted windows and I'm planning on putting alloys on and getting it lowered. Any other ideas on how to improve it would be great! A few points: The interior needs some work, new stereo, maybe new seat etc., Its dark green (still trying to find the official name for the colour!), any ways to improve performance would be greatly appreciated too! Thanks

OK thanks, any ideas on how hard they are to fit? Will i be able to do it myself or will I have to get it booked into a garage?

Hi and welcome

Rs grill. Takes 10-15 mins to fit. It's very easy

Colour code. Shouldn't be too much from a spray shop

Unless the tints are a light smoke, remove them... Screams chav

Rokkor coilovers can be had quite cheap

172/182/turini alloys will make it look very smart

Fit a spoiler if it doesn't have one

Look in the non sport thread for some ideas

Cheers! Love the fact renault's look so good once they've had a bit of work done! I'll get some pictures uploaded soon!

Welcome to the site........
My old mk2 had rokkor coilovers fitted they were cheap and did the job, does what it says on the tin.
Agreed with the RS grille. You say the interior needs work.....you can pick up a nice condition 172/182 interior quite cheap now,as I did. Pics below.
Get some pics up/progress thread etc.

I was looking at rokkor coilovers earlier, they look good to me! Car looks nice, did you get new seats for your car as well or just the panels?

For some reason it won't let me put pictures up.. any ideas?!

Host the pics on photobucket/Flickr etc. get the img code (right click, properties) then press the embed picture icon in the comment box on here and paste the img code in

If your on a budget, then RS Grille and Colour Coding, is all you need to make it look a lot better.

If you want to spend a little more, I recommend a 172 rear bumper, cup spoiler and a small drop on either Eibach Sportline springs or Coilovers.

Then enjoy the cheap driving.
