If Carlsberg made Ph1's....

[Rob]

IMO, it'd look a little like this... (Gave it a good clean ready for the meet tmrw, exucse the random close ups, I was trying (and failing) to show the flek in the paint)

Also upgraded the speakers today in the rear and fitted my 6x9'd shelf out of the old Clio, the sound difference is epic!

''If Carlsberg made ph-1's''

They probably put tyre shine on them??

Looks awesome mate! Shame about the rear.

 

[Rob]

I don't do tyre shine, or any of that poncey crap, its gets driven!

But cheers you Bristolian hooligan,

P.s still need that recipt for my service history if you've got it/can get it.

P.p.s can't get over how glittery this car is, people have said things like "it looks like its had extra metallic sprayed into it"

<3 you

 

[Bluebeard]

Its been proper looked after that car! I used to wax it twice a week!

 

[Marv-C]

You beat me to it :rasp:. Real shame you didn't make the Basildon meet last week. I would have liked to have seen this in the flesh.

 

[Bluebeard]

Oh, and EPIC Flip Flops! lol!!!!!

 

[Edd]

You can still drive it with tyre shine on

Still think the wheels should be like this, green lip, green decals and green calipers.

She does scrub up well!

 

[jim cook]

Very smart

 

[Rob]

Ok fine, I'll invest in some tyre shine, also need to invest in some wax, as it hasn't even seen any polish since I bought it

TBH it seems to have some serious protection on it, as even with 0 polish it still looks lovely!

Edd the calipers are going green next weekend, and my splitter is being fitted, all in good time though, still got a sticking caliper I need to sort out, suppose I can do that whilst I've got the wheel off for painting though.

Cheers for the comments, oh and sorry I didn't make the basildon meet, hangover destroyed me.

Don't knock the flip flops, its summer!

Look forward to seeing the next lot of pics then!

 

[Rob]

Yeah they'll be better I hope, trying to make it more and more my own month by month, its just finding the cash.

On the O.Z graphic front, I don't think I could get them off for love nor money, so they'll be staying red I think... lol!

 

[iimushroomzii]

It'd look loads better with out the shitty green rim on the wheels

 

[Rob]

Blame Daniel, but tbh, I fecking love it now (didn't at first), its not too lairy, but makes the car stand out

 

[Cal182]

Very nice!

 

[Poopensharten]

The green lip.

Makes jesus cry

 

[Rob]

Very nice!

Cheers Cal.

The green lip.

Makes jesus cry

LOL! It seems to very much devide opinion, most love it in RL (other than oldies), or they're just lying b******s?

 

[ForceIndia]

Ph2 rear, hard fail. Otherwise very nice.

 

[Rob]

Haha, cheers Brown Bear.

I have, and always will be, a Ph1.5 guy I',m afriad, and ever since I wanted a ph1, I always wanted a ph2 rear end, (blame Middo)

No one ever notices the ph2 interior though, subtle

 

[Poopensharten]

Cheers Cal.

lolz @ baiting the old dears.

It would look mint in red or blue i think.

It is a stunning example though mate, a credit to you!

 

[maynard]

Looks great, even better when you get the centre caps

 

[Rob]

Cheers mate, I've got some coming from somewhere

Next weekend now holds

• Paint calipers bright green
• Paint centre caps black
• Fix sticking caliper
• Paint plenum and fuel rail guard matt black and polish RS writing
• Fit splitter

Winner

Probarbly the Best Clio Ph.1 in the World!

You forgot the tyre shine!

With my new tires... i used it too for the 1st time.
No more 'brown' sidewalls for me.

 

[rich19]

what speakers did you go for and was it a difficult job?

looking good by the way

God, I really wish I'd got some tyre shine now, don't even own any! lol!

I'll give it a crack next week

Difficult? Easiest job in the world tbh.

I've had a Clio before and did a massive audio upgrade on that, they're really easy cars to work with in the audio sense.

As for speakers I used some JBL speakers I had left over from my old Clio, just a case of unplugging the old ones, snipping the Renault connection block off and connecting up some spade connectors for the JBL's.

I also run some speaker wire to the 6x9's on the shelf I had lying around, which are Cerwin Vega's.

As a whole it sounds great, much more bass than standard, a fair shout louder/clearer and not a lot of weight added

 

[rich19]

fair enough, always a part that i`ve wanted to upgrade as it gets used everytime

nice work

 

[Triki]

I like that .....even the green lip on the rims.

 

[Feirny]

Ph2 Interior?

Looks nice! Not a fan of the green lip though, maybe if it was lime green it'd look better.

 

[p@blo]

Reckon Edd's bang on the money here-either a v.thin lip or left off.

Cars mint-I<3 ph1's!!!

 

[Darren85]

Ph1.5 Disco Ball.. Love it! Mine will be cleaned.... ONE DAY!

 

[Jamie]

If Carlsberg made them in addition to the first post they would have fitted ph2 lights and front bumper then it would be perfect.

 

[yellowbelly]

"if Calsberg made Ph1's" they'd have put a diamond on the front....
"if Calsberg made Ph1's" they'd have put a Ph1 rear bumper on...
"if Calrberg made Ph1's" they'd have put the Ph1 seats in to go with the rest of the blue colour scheme...

 

[Rob]

Dude, wouldn't that just be "If Renault made ph1's"? Which they did and I changed it....

 

[leeds_182]

Looks nice that but I would prefer with the ph1 lights.

The whole interior is ph2!

Its only the dashtop thats blue now.

(Excuse to get it flocked Rob!!)

 

[Whisker biscuit]

Its defo a tidy example but aftermarket steering wheel, orange repeaters, ph2 rear and yellow callipers (at the moment) all all a fail for me.

There are many many plans, silvervisions are top of the list I suppose, as they're cheap and cheerful, but I also have:

Standard steering wheel to get trimmed, or I want a leather aftermarket one.

Calipers will be going green next w.e

Dash will probably be flocked at some point, or a full ph2 dash

Refurb the front lights, as they're fubar'd

And so, so much more over the summer.

 

[Whisker biscuit]

Does a flocked dash not end up like fcuk all after a while ?

 

[Rob]

Not that I know of? Its not something you ever really touch is it?

Whats the cleaning process with it ? Im sure the dust just clings to it.
