My clio transformation!

[Kemixx]

I never took any photos of her when i'd just got it home, but I did take on in the yard at the garage just before it first went in for MOT. I had to clean it up a LOT before it even looked like this..

Obviously I added the infamous mudflaps you all love to hate ;p

Then finally forked out for some TSW heats and did a few other things I can't think about off the top of my head. Posted these old pictures in a thread a while ago..

Then I bought myself a ph2/3 rear strip and did a few other things I can't remember. Sorted my sound system etc, then painted the calipers and drums blue (which again, nobody liked ;p) and the CLIO stickers (wait.. nobody liked ;p). Oh, and stuck some renault badges in the alloys in replace of the 'TSW' caps.

Eventually saw light and removed the stickers. Bought some clear side repeaters and one of my drums threadded so I ended up buying two new rear drums. Then bought some clear side repeater surrounds to get rid of the 1.4 sign and here's how she looks now..

I know, before anyone suggests, that it needs lowering, and I have fitted a set of g-max's to the back, I just haven't got roudn to lowering the back yet as I can't afford the front. As soon as I have the cash I probably will lower by about -35mm.

So anyway, what do you think? Would I beable to pull up at a meet and not get a chav or anything?

Cheers ya'll.

nice and clean could do with a little spoiler on the backend like a valver one or somthing, would set the back off nicer

 

[DH_GTI]

looks good not the flaps tho lol sorry

 

[Kemixx]

I did buy a VTR style spoiler that I sprayed up and everything, but I just didn't think it looked right so I sold it. I have a picture of my mate holding it up against the car..

Looked decent from a side angle..

Tidy, taking those stickers off was a good move.
Just slam it on its arse and please get rid of those dodgy flaps!

hehe aww pride enjoy when a youngster i remember being like that over my nova... just bought some 15s, didnt think about having to lower it afterwards.. it looked like a trackter but i still loved her

 

[len_beach]

Lower it (as you know), get shot of the mudflaps and the blue bumper strips. Job's a carrot.

 

[Liam_M135i]

I remember when it was like in the 1st pic. Looks alot better now mate

 

[ClioGav]

If you're tight for money, drop it 55mm on GMAX springs £45.
35mm will look crap :boring:

Went through a dodgy phase but its coming on nicely now mate

[Graham Gooch]

Looks a bit random having two sets of mudflaps with different fonts on them
