my new rb182

[Joenjones]

Just got this bargain at just 43,000 miles on the clock! one lady owner from new, had the car a couple of days and feels great. ill probably keep it original on the outside and do some small mods, dont want to reck it. so here it is

only problem is the front stripes are peeling a little, seen a set on ebay so might try them

 

[Matthew]

Very nice.

I would keep the stripes on, or atleast get some new ones.

 

[Scott™]

Nice. FLOL. Upside own?

 

[DB.]

Love the zero gravity mod!

 

[Scott™]

No matter what way I turn my iPad around it just defies gravity lol.

 

[JMR]

Nice looking RB :approve:
43k, only just run in

Lose the stripes though.

 

[Joenjones]

its the right way up on mine, dont know whats happened there lol

 

[Joenjones]

i like the stripes, just the front bonnet ones are peeling so ill attempt to re-do it, any advice?

 

[JMR]

Something tells me they're aftermarket ones, they dont look quite wide enough to be the genuine ones.

Hairdryer to help tease them off a bit, but you'll probably have to use some tar and glue remover on the panel and wipe down with IPA (isopropyl alcohol) to make sure your new ones stick.

 

[Joe#]

Looking good. The stripes are in a different place to mine though, which are original.

 

[Joenjones]

Thanks , where can I get original ones from? And get someone to put them on exactly like the originals?

 

[Adam D]

Looks nice, like it with the stripes on. I'd get your 'reg sorted out though

 

[Joenjones]

Haha will do

 

[.J.a.m.e.s.]

loose the stripes they look chavy espesh if they need replacing.
yeah as someone suggested ^^ gsort the reg out. you can get a smart fitted plate from fancyplates.com pm me for sizes or any help

 

[Tunst]

RB with stripes ftw!

Wish mine had them

 

[Joenjones]

Seen some new stripes on eBay for 16 pound or something and they come separated at the right length, the last owner said they had the roof one re done 5 years ago , just need to do the front bonnet really

 

[Joenjones]

bought some wind deflectors, looking nice

waiting on the new stripes to come and front wheel started making a shudering noise when i brake, so bought some new disks and pads. They come tomorrow so will hopefully stop that noise.

 

[l33th3tr33]

Where did you get the deflectors from? I've never liked the look of them but they do look very smart on clios.

Nice clean car btw.

 

[Adamm.]

Very nice mate got to love RB. Just needs some new exhaust mounts by the looks of it and clean plates and will look factory fresh then .

 

[Joenjones]

cheers , and yeah ino thinking of getting a decent exhaust first tho hah what plates do you mean mate? **and the deflectors are off ebay

 

[Joenjones]

new disks and pads on, the old ones where just bare metal!

 

[Matthew]

Why are the pictures upside down on my iPhone?

 

[Joenjones]

i dont know, there upside down on mine as well but normal on my computer

 

[Joenjones]

Today finally replaced the stripes on the bonnet after a trip to PV in santa pod

 

[Jack-D]

Nice mate I found out the other day mine used to have stripes, I wish it still did tbh :dapprove:

 

[Joenjones]

cheers took ages lol, ive got 2 massive lines of them left, you can have them for a small price

 

[Joenjones]

bought some renault sport mats, alot better than my old ones

also got some SMD LEDS for the side lights to match the clolour of the car

 

[Joenjones]

Exhaust needed new mounts so they where put on

looks much better now

while i was doing this i gave the engine a clean as well

 

[Joenjones]

xenons installed, really good buy

just fitting them the hard part

car might be for sale if anyone is interested, best to put it on here before any other site

 

[Coops Mk1]

xenons = epic upgrade

zip tied ballasts = fail upgrade

 

[Joenjones]

[Joenjones]

[Coops Mk1]

no no no, get yourself paid up and put a proper advert in the for sale, the above will be removed for breaching forum rules I reckon

but GLWS

 

[Joenjones]

oh okay mate cheers :approve:

 

[Amos91]

Did you retro fit those xenons to the cup headlights?

 

[Coops Mk1]

I would guess he did, as the proper Renault xenons the ballast is attached to the bottom of the light so you cant see it

 

[Amos91]

That will be blinding then.

 

[Joenjones]

Yes they are blinding but fully dimmed
