My Mk1 RT Valver Hybrid

[AmirClio]

Just got it back from the bodyshop after having the bonnet painting. Was rolling around with a willy Blue bonnet for about a month after the convrsion. i regret taking some progress pics of us at work. Took two and a half days to do the conversion. Got rid of the chav rear lights and put standards back in. Still need to lower it, gonna do 50mm on the front and adjust the rear to match. Valver front bumper is on the way! Sorry the wheels aint particulatly clean valeters where being a pain in the arse.
I am very tempet to get some Phase 2 Valver wheels and paint them white.

Let me know what you think
Cheers
Amir

Just a guess m8, nicest looking imo....did u mean u got a exhaust for cheap or a supersprint manifold?

 

[Remedi]

Hmmm....

Rotas Alloys

or

Clio cup Racer style wheels

or Turinis and turbines as you said, not a fan of ph2 wheels though.

LUSH!! (sorry, bit of bristol there!)

 

[kully]

cant remember did u do think about the colour coding ? strips .

 

[AmirClio]

i want to flush them out completely, makes for a smoother look!

 

[donsrno1]

Nice clio - but I would definately agree with putting 15's on it.

When you say it took 2 and a half days to do, how many of you were working on it?

I keep getting tempted with the idea of putting a valver engine in my own 1.4. It's nothing special but I love the idea of a sleeper.

thats very nice fella
