My euro clio

[BIFCAIDS]

being a euro rimmer hmmmm i think you may have gone over that boundry with the front bumper, yea get rid of nearly everthing but it needs splitting up n thats were you should of left the grill in its place, theres alot of work gone into it tho so i admire that, but the burning question inside is... was it a chequebook car? lol

 

[Laura]

they rnt 9s look like 8s to me

You have NEVER EVER got a positive comment to say about anyones car when they have gone euro.

Jealous??

tbh i just hate the euro look now,

i like my car but i dont consider that the be euro,

this is a good effort i can see why people like it... the wheels are mint... then im bias i had them on my 1.2 lol

The front bumper seems to be getting the most criticism but the reason why i had it smoothed was to be different. Ive never seen it on a Clio before and its an original mod. Besides I love it and thats all that matters.

This is by no means a cheque book car and a lot of blood, sweat and tears went into it. My brother and I only had 3 hours sleep in 48 hours leading up to FCS trying to get it ready. The car just rolled out of the garage in the morning and straight on the motorway.

i wouldnt touch the exterior anymore mate, keep it minimal of all words haha

purple and black interior

and as for air ride, would be pointless if ur gonna be running poke on those rims as can slam it on coilies easily enough for the height ur wanting

totally disagree!!! the car is very nice indeed but still needs something more to give it the edge!!

in regards to bags i am only talkin from experience!! my current show car is slammed on coilovers and i love the stance but i always catch the front bumper wherever i drive!! bags would cost a few pennies but woudl b worth it in the long run!! u wont hav to plan u routes around speend bumps and wont hav to re paint ur front bumper every winter!! trust me i know

low enuff for ya

Thought that was sold?

 

[DUB_MD]

it looks absolutely mint , euro rules

 

[Stig182]

not keen on it sorry dude, good effort though but tbh i dont think clios can pull the 'euro' look' off, that should in my mind be left to vee-dubs....

Thanks fella.

Fair enought mate but I think the Clio can pull it off. It does annoy me when people assume that 'Euro' is only a Dub thing. They dont own the style and they have ripped off plenty of other themes from the motor world. IMO if a car is European then they have the right to do 'Euro' style.

Not having a dig or anything but just my 2 pence worth.

oh dont get me wrong its ace and i can gather u n your bro have put some time in

Here's a few more pics I found of my car at FCS...

 

[snick01]

awesome! lovein the rear flair on them arches!

 

[Bluebeard]

I love it. Looks bloody brilliant.

Front wheels need some spacers though.

 

[$torm Rider]

Yeah the rears have been flaired by a couple of inches! Im after some 20mm spacers for the fronts.

 

[VeinAST]

Not keen on the rear plate though!! Would look better without the letters all squished up I think, maybe 3/4 ?

 

[$torm Rider]

A 3/4 plate wouldn't fit nicely. The recess has been shortened length and width wise.

 

[dutty_112]

dude how did you flare the arches

 

[Ash87]

front bumper is defo marmite and i love it! fair play for doin summit different dude.

 

[cat171]

Very good effort that !

As Dan said, spacers for the front wheels (but I see that you said your on that already) The CF bonnet isn't my thing (i'm just not a fan of them anyway)

I do love the rear arches on it & way they've been stretched.

All in all, respect to you & your bro for doing something different that works :approve:

 

[Craigie-B15]

not sure about the wing mirrors but that is deffinatly hot mate

btw doesn't cf degrade when left in the open sun?

 

[Christophe]

Clio looks really good. Not keen on front bumper. Would have put a sport. the colour and wheels are amazing together

 

[clio_luke]

rear numberplate recess needs filling/smoothing, and relocate the rear plate. looks very well done, saw it at fcs. not how i would have my car but you have done good job there and it does look good and stand out! well done mate, good work

 

[Andi-B]

doesnt it over heat?

I was thinking the very same, I can see you having problems on long trips with ventilation as by the looks of, you haven't any venting besides the RS grill.

It's different though.

 

[Tigger]

Very nice, certainly different

 

[J03]

looks really nice at FCS! loving the wheels and stance in particular, why dont you smooth the bump strips and get rid of the skirts? or would that make it look too much like erm... a blob? lol

 

[$torm Rider]

dude how did you flare the arches

A lot of pulling, bashing, shaping and swearing.

Very good effort that !

Thanks mate, we worked long and hard on these motors and i think we've just about achieved what we wanted bar a few more mods.

I wanted something out of the norm with the mirrors and then these popped up for sell. Ive had the carbon bonnet for over 2 years and never had a problem fella.

It is a sport bumper, well originally anyway!

I wanted to keep the numberplate recess as you see flushed ones all the time. Appreciate the positive comment.

Havent had problems so far mate but i am open to any suggestions on cooling apart form changing the bumper!

I like the strips and i think it would look toooo smooth along side the front bumper. I prefer the skirts on tbh, looked a bit silly without them.

 

[$torm Rider]

New seats and steering wheel should be here in the next couple of days. Cant wait!

 

[jayxx83]

looks pretty good mate, think a cf splitter would go nicely with the bonnet and add get you 10mm visually closer to the ground.

wheres jags bodyshop, is it in ilford? could do with having my front bumper resprayed.

 

[$torm Rider]

Cheers fella, I was actually thinking of a cf splitter as it goes.

Jags is next door to New World snooker club, right next to the Exchange.

 

[Rage]

smooth the bump strips and get rid of the skirts? or would that make it look too much like erm... a blob? lol

wew! ive got no bump strips nore skirts and myn dont look like a blob!

 

[$torm Rider]

^ Ahahaha! I think he meant that it might look like a blob on my car because the front and back bumpers are totally smooth.

 

[J03]

haha no but urs looks nice like that!!

^ Ahahaha! I think he meant that it might look like a blob on my car because the front and back bumpers are totally smooth.

and yeah it would on storm riders car because come to think about it, it would look like his cars melted if too much was smoothed.. lol you got PM gay rider!

 

[Mickb]

like it, cant you direct air up from below the bumper? like the brake ducts but obviously one long one at the bottom, you wouldnt really notice it if it was black. just a thought

 

[$torm Rider]

^ Hmmmm you mean like a cold air feed like say off a closed induction kit attached to below the bumper? Good shout, I was thinking along similar lines.

 

[Mickb]

yea like that but more of a scoop type thing. need to watch the air filter case go though a puddle etc but saying that better for air filter pipe to be at top grill well what id build n fit to be on safe side.

 

[$torm Rider]

This arrived over the week end, cant wait to get it fitted!

 

[cafcross]

nice, they're tiny!

 

[P8TON]

hannibal lectur anyone?

 

[$torm Rider]

hannibal lectur anyone?

Nope, Even good ol Lector didnt have such a smooth mask. Maybe he should book it into the bodyshop.

Nice try though

 

[$torm Rider]

nice, they're tiny!

I went for the 300 as i wanted to be able to at least attempt to drive my car.

 

[Leeshez]

Wow that is awsome.

 

[$torm Rider]

Cheers geezer
