My Clio 172



I have those stickers too :)
Though i dont go on the forum as nothing happens lol

What stickers?

leave the wheels silver. Grey wheels look naff.

Grey? They'll be charcoal more than anything. Similar to this quick Photoshop my mate did...

I think it looks good mate.

PLEASE someone do something different other then lowering 30mm, carbon splitter and anthracite turinis!
 
Update...

After having the club stickers fitted last week, I thought the bonnet one needed to be a little lower. So I had that done yesterday morning :)

It was then off to Portsmouth to have the car lowered 30mm on Eibach's...

Maybe I should have taken the pics on a level surface!!! Oh well.

And Mike at Rentech wanted to add a little touch of his own...

I'm the second person to have one of the new logo's :)

Next on the agenda are anthracite wheels but with the quotes I've had already, that wont happen soon.

Do you own the French Sports Club or something...? Although, they work as advertising, I'd never heard of it :)
 
Are they!?! :eek: I never knew that. Haha! I thought the 5 spokes for the 1.2 and 1.4 16v's were 14" and the 5 spokes for the 172's were 15".

My bad.

Yeah, ph1 172's are 15's, Ph2 are 16's, non sport/dynamique etc are 14/15's. Confusing lol

Got them lowered pics yet? ;)
 
Update...

As said, stickers are now OFF!

Here are more (lowered) pics but minus "a few" stickers...

Update...

Yesterday, I took a trip to Halfrauds to buy some "Smooth Silver" Hammerite, a wire brush and a 1/2" paint brush.

These are the results...

Front wheels

There are tiiiny calipers on the rears so not a lot to see. The fronts have come out well :) When I have the wheels done anthracite, I'll re-do the calipers :) Oh... and I didn't wash the car. Only gave the wheels a quick rinse down.

Just to give you an idea. This is what they looked like before..

And this is what they look like now...
