my arctic 182

Car  Clio 172 Cup Mondial
after being a member for over a year i am finally doing a project thread !
i own a arctic 182 05 plate which i purchased in september last year, its a full fat model and had 61k when i bought it. The car was completly standard and in great condition inside and out. Only payed 2.8k for it. After a month i had the common symptoms of a rotten exhaust. Did some thorough research and ended up with a k-tec janspeed sports version with de-cat.
here is how it looked then after some megs liquid wax

guys thinking of getting some 15' ultraleggera's in athrarcite ! only 500 odd quid and will save 4kg a wheel. bored of 182 wheels aswell...
 
purchased some new wheels ! got some second hand ultraleggera 16' ! you notice the weight difference with the steering for sure...
whats your thoughts guys?
