Matty's Ultra Red Clio 200

[PTIMatty]

Hey guys,

So i'v been looking through the project threads and thought I'd start one of my own. The car's currently a standard 200 fitted with a cup suspesion 2010 reg on a '60' plate, picked the car up just over a month ago from Seward Reanult Portsmouth, where the car had 17k on the clock, driven it for a bit and i can't fault it one bit ( even the electronics seem to work weird for a french car right? )

Anyway, here are a couple of photos of the clio, any idea's on mods will be welcome

Nice car. Any plans for it?

 

[Matt W]

Best colour (When clean)

Previous owner didn't have it for long, I sold this car to a guy in Southampton less than a year ago. Nice spec if I remember rightly!

 

[Craig_B]

Looks lovely! front looks mean! be better for a clean! haha

Renault Sport badge in the wrong place isnt it?

its a lovely spec, only thing missing IMO are the recaros might look into getting those in the new year...

I'll be washing the car tomorrow as i have a day off, currently at work and having to revise for a exam for a managment course my work have put me on... Any idea's for mods i could do? was thinkng maybe spray the bullets Gloss black to match the roof and get 'Renault Sport' done in UR?

 

[Matthew]

Looks lovely. Just be careful with the gearbox

Recaros are the only thing missing IMO.

I'll be looking at Recaros in the new year, not sure what else i want to do to it, was thinking a cup spoiler but it already has a spoiler on it as far as i can tell? Maybe CF side skirts and CC interior bits

Yeah it's already fitted with the GT spoiler. Which is more subtle and looks better IMO. If I remember rightly the car also has cup chassis with black speedlines, diamond black roof and tinted windows. Also has the upgraded stereo with Bluetooth and USB connection (I think)

 

[PTIMatty]

Indeed it does, got all of that, was thinking about Bullets + a new RS badge, or maybe debadge the rear... Not 100% sure on which i should do

Maybe black bullets, remove RS badge and change front and rear Renault diamonds to black.

 

[PTIMatty]

Black Bullets with silver RS writing or go UR for the RS logo? I reckon the UR on black would look smart

 

[Jimbo_M]

Love UR 200's!

 

[PTIMatty]

Love UR 200's!

You'll like them even more when clean! haha

 

[PTIMatty]

Took the 'CLIO' badge off my boot, unsure if im gonna take the RenaultSport badge off... Anybody got any idea's on how to take the Renault Diamonds off? Same concept as taking the clio badge off?

 

[.Stevo.C.]

I'd take the RS badge off and put it back on in the right place.

 

[PTIMatty]

Where's the correct place? Was on the car there when i bought it

Should be in the bottom right corner of the boot lid. I would ditch it or replace it in the correct position.

Car looks nice, one of my favourite colours for the 200.

You could do, personally I would remove the current one and get the new style RS badge and put that one on instead

This is the new style btw: http://renaultpartsdirect.co.uk/products/Renault-Clio-3-RS-Rear-Badge.html

Ahh sweet, i'll look into it on payday as funds are low at the moment with christmas and shiz coming up

Thanks mate Would look better if i could clean it properly! ( need to learn haha ) I'm tempted to ditch it... Or get the new style badge and spray it Gloss Black as i'll be doing that with the front and rear Renault Diamonds...
