all the thumbnails is other work iv done( sprayed interior parts gloss black green LED interior light, shorter ripspeed aerial) more work is planned including lowered, colour codeing interior(little bits not OTT) and bumb strips.

comments and ideas would be appreciated (i.e side skirts wich ones would look best)

 

[spanishbhoy]

cant see you getting a lot of love here with that.... sound system looks ok i suppose... your neighbours must hate you... what with the chavtastic exhaust and induction kit and 2x1000 subs in ur boot.... each to their own tho... id get new wheels though if i were you

You need a new rear wiper blade it's hanging off.

 

[ashy1310]

i nar it looks bit chavy i was thinkn of changing wheels its what i got with car........... (in my defence its me first proper car so not 100% sure what looks good and what doesnt) its work in progress at the minuet

 

[ashy1310]

ohh forget to put thanks for the comment

hahah yea was hoping no one would spot it on the photo

 

[wyardclio]

get rid of that jap end can exhaust there horrid, also get some different wheels them wheels just dont look good at all, try keep your car simple and looking nice

 

[spanishbhoy]

look in the non sport section mate. its full of ideas for you to turn it into a tidy car...

 

[Jake007g]

You could pick up a set of dynamique alloys in the region of £100, or you could probably get some 172 alloys for not much more. I'd recommend you do that!

You should also colour code your sidestrips asap, really smartens it up - it's a doddle to do and it's inexpensive!

Other ideas:
RS Grille
Silvervisions
De-wiper rear
Flat wiper blades (front)
Remove window tints (best thing I ever did!)
Spray small things black to go with your silver+black scheme (Renault diamonds, Clio bootlid badge, wing mirror covers possibly?)

 

[spanishbhoy]

but maybe get some black 172 alloys if you like the black alloy look. lower it... take the exhaust off... remove window tints... and it will look so much better. RS grill for the front end aswell does wonders....

so wheres the none sport section?

[ashy1310]

I can't really recommend it as I haven't bought mine yet, but I've heard amazing things about the ktec stealth supersports

You could spray your spoiler gloss black to go with your roof better and I think colour coding the bumper and sidestrips would be a good idea it looks very similar to mine atm.

I'm hoping to lower mind and colour code it soon also, where did you get your clear side repeaters from or did they just come as standard? Cheers

 

[ashy1310]

im eather going to spay me spoiler black or carbon wrap it, the repeaters came with the car.

Jake007g thanks for the advice bud will look into them

 

[wyardclio]

get a sportex like mine they sound absolutely mint only 150 quid for middles section and back box

 

[gaz90]

I like the black roof on silver, I'd have done the spoiler black as well but its your car and your choice. Do you get any real difference with that induction kit on a 1.2 or are they just all about the noise?

 

[ashy1310]

you notice a litle difrence n noise is deep im not sure wether im painting the spoiler or CF wrapping it yet..... took some advice today and dewipperd the back and looks better sortd out colour coding for the end of the month and looking into other suggestions

 

[gaz90]

Cheers, might look into getting 1 at some point when i need a new air filter, I've thought about dewipering the back window a few times but I think I'd regret it, looks like a nice wee car you'v got there

 

[ashy1310]

before


After


took a while to get it off but eventually came off hopefully doing the diamonds black next week

cheers mate, the do give a nice sound mines a pipercross gives a deep sound never had any other so cant compare to any got this one as it was recomended by a friend

 

[Mat23]

Looking good mate! I like what youve done with the roof, It will look much better though when you colour code the side bumpers. Perhaps a black spoiler would look good with the roof? or a carbon bonnet!! although they are hellish expensive!!

 

[ashy1310]

thanks mate gunna price up spraying the spoiler..... CF bonnet would be nice just bit too expensive lol

 

[ashy1310]

Sprayd badges black looks loads better got me xenons to fit next week spoiler and wing mirrors are going black soon will upload photos as soon as I gt sum ok ones

 

[ashy1310]

Litle update got rid of stupid exhaust and 17" alloys now got some 172 cup alloys on car looks loads better gunna Upload photo as soon as i can

 

[ashy1310]

iv had the spoiler and wing mirrors sprayed recently n the alloys are on the car now startn 2 look better less chavy now, bein out for a random drive tonight and got a couple of nice pics to show how its looking now






got more stuff to do soon as well

 

[-Danman-]

It's coming along nicely now mate, new wheels look much better. Really like the black roof and spoiler as well

Only thing you need to do now is colour code the bumpers and side strips

 

[Grier]

[ashy1310]

cheers n i know dan want them doin gunna price it up soon n it doesnt really show in the photo but the wheels need a good refurb but not sure waht colour to do weather to get them refurbed in silver or black or a dark grey nt sure yet

 

[ashy1310]

cheers mate i havent seen many eather thats why i did it lol thort it would look different

 

[MatthewR]

Any more pictures with the black roof? have you got a sunroof?

Really liked the idea for a while but unsure how it would look with the sunroof. Also is it painted or wrapped?

 

[ashy1310]
