Completely forgot I started a project thread!
Might as well pick up where I left off..
The car now has 42k on the clock.
Firstly I scrapped them awful alloys, looking back I have no idea why I bought them.
I took everybodys advice and got myself a set of 16" clio sport alloys (Off of a 172 I believe), they have just been refurbished so are in mint condition
I then took the adjuster out from the rear so it sat lower, it looked a ton better. Here is the result and how it currently looks:
now i know a lot of you will hate the next part but bear with me.
i bought a bootbuild.. (Sorry for the s**tty iPhone picture)
before you crush your mouse in anger and flip the desk you're sitting at, the whole thing only cost me £50.
it is a custom made build for a mk2 clio and it fits literally perfect. it came with two 12" sony xplod subs which i know
arent great but for £50 i couldn't say no!
its covered in black suede and all i need to do is buy an amp.
(The hole in the middle will be covered up by the amp, its for the wires to run through.)
main reason for buying is all of my friends have just bought awful edge subs from halfords
and i love the sound in their car, so even if these sonys arent the best they will definitely do the job!
lets be honest here my car was never going to be performance orientated, i'm just going for looks and comfort really.
there is a massive amount planned so I will keep you all updated.
To do list / Plans:
• Put on ClioSport sticker and tax disc holder - Currently in the post!
• Buy an Amp and get subs wired up - I already know what amp I'm getting.
• Order Custom Rear Springs - I've been quoted £120 for a pair of 100mm springs
• Buy Dynamic Spoiler
• Buy SilverVisions
• Buy an RS grill
• Possibly colour match side strips + door handles + wing mirrors
• maybe buy a boot popper and smooth rear tailgate? - Thoughts?
• scrap the awful cannon sticking out the back
• get rear quater panel resprayed - needs doing desperately, you can kinda see it in the original pictures I posted. (quoted about £300)
• source a custom decat pipe and fit
• omp front and rear strut braces
• buy summer wheels - probably Dare RS or Lenso BSX in silver with some stretch
probably quite a few ideas I missed off but that'll do for now
what do you think?
