My black clio project 1.4 16v dynamique

[progreen91]

i recently brought a Clio 1.4, which i brought after someone decided to write off my off pug, i was really surprised by this car when i was test driving so i brought obv! i brought this car on Saturday, this car is a joy to drive a lil rough when on rubbish British roads!

upon buying the car i decided i would sign up for Clio sport even though i don't own a sport, and before anyone asks or comments i am not making a replica... i am looking to make some modifications to this car. the first modification i have made is to change my wheels for some turinis, in anthracite... as i stumbled upon them on here, buying them off mart.z.s

pictures will be added soon... as photo bucket doesn't want to play...

doesnt like my photos!!!!1

 

[Knuckles]

sounds like a good start look forward to pics


i'll never understand why everyone says they brought it :s the 'r' is nowhere near the 'b' or the 'o'

 

[Evans7]

get some pics up are 1.4s pretty quick thinking bout getting 1 myself

 

[Weo]

helped him put wheels on this, and just changing form the dynamique ones to the anthacite turini's had made a hell of a difference, pics needed!


needs lows, colour code, badges spraying and spoiler painting! IMHO!

Good start, got a black 1.4 Dynamique with Turinis on it.

As above, lowered, colour coded, RS grille and you're on to a winner!

[Expired]

Im in love with Turini's, looking good.

Gonna have to save up and get some.

 

[progreen91]

Yer I am really pleased with the simple transformation that it has in the car, just need to sort some other bits out and some springs, or coilies not sure yet, not like I am going to be racing...

Have to take a look at some other threads, what other mods have you done?

 

[mart.z.s]

Wheels suit it down to the ground. Hope you are happy with them.

 

[Knuckles]

Get rokkor coilovers next! Cheap and careful lows check out my threads if you want some inspiration 1.4 on turinis aswell

Yet I am really happy with how it turned out! It's not a 182 but it will do for now, and I sort of owe some credit to will for the push to buy on Sunday... Just needs a clean and a wax when I get chance...

Nice dude! I've got a 1.4 Clio myself in silver and they're pretty quick. I'd advise getting some LED side lights, fog lights, rear number plate light, and interior lights. They make a big difference, especially the interior ones. The rear number plate light makes the car look much better at night to I think. They're much brighter and smarter looking than the standard yellow-like bulbs.

Also, probably worth getting some Silvatec bulbs for the indicators to take away that 'yellow egg yolk' look to the lights with the orange bulbs. I'd advise getting them online though, as places like Halfords charge £12.99 for two bulbs. Complete rip off!

Looking good though dude!

[progreen91]

[Knuckles]
