My BG 182 after AF Tripple/C2v3

[chriscummins7]

Evening all,

I've spent the last couple of days giving the 182 some attention in preparation for putting it up for sale after my holiday, as something slightly newer, bigger and boosted is calling (Focus ST-2/Golf GTi mkV/3MPS/Leon FR). Purchased a couple of cheeky bits for a detail I did on a C220 with C63 kit on it, and thought I would treat the 182 to some protection.

Products used:

Magifoam
DJ BTBM
Trix
AG Clay bar (demon shine diluted as lube)
BTBM again
AF Tripple via DA (3m Yellow)
Gtechniq C2v3 to finish (What a product!)
AF Revive
AF Crystal
Megs Endurance
Autosol.

No photos during the process as I simply didn't have time, so here are some afters after rolling it off the drive and up the road:

That looks fantastic, im sure you will anyway but I would personally remove that toe eye before you put it up for sale!

Thanks bud, will be looking for offers slightly north of 3k.

 

[Martin.]

Just wow

I think you'll regret selling such a stunning looking 182! I regret selling my 172 so much after going the boosted bigger car route, it just isn't as much fun...

 

[BREMBO]

Stunning! lovely 182, just loose the earing

 

[Luke.]

Looks amazing BUT exhaust needs aligning..

 

[Canary172]

Looking very fresh indeed - excellent work!

I vote Focus ST-2 for your next motor; that 5-pot sound is Dodge Viper esque with the right exhaust.

Looks mint mate

Aye I understand, but it's just time for a change. If I come back to renault sport ownership it'll hopefully be a vee. Not for a bit though!

Thanks mate. It's a bit marmite, I like them though. Will take it off for the car sale though.

Looks amazing BUT exhaust needs aligning..

Thanks Luke! The mounts were all replaced last month and it was straight, but the cat (well, de-cat) to manifold gasket needs replacing.

Looking very fresh indeed - excellent work!

Yeah, it's definitely number 1 choice! Thanks

Looks mint mate

Thanks Kyle.

The Gtechniq stuff is properly highly rated. I must get some for my collection lol

 

[Mr R.]

C2V3 is epic and well worth the money.

 

[Craig.]

That looks very very clean mate. I'd love a black car if it looked that clean all the time but in our weather it wouldn't last long
