Red 172 PH1 1.2
Hiiii, joined the forum a few days ago still need to get round to joining the club 
not your average girl, grown up with nice cars so I'll try my best to drive one! Parents own a type r and AMG mercedes, I've always liked the clios though, hoping to get a quicker one for my 2nd car and one where i dont have to do as much to it, but its all part of the fun.
I've got a 1.2 Clio Grande soon to be a 172 PH1 replica as of the end of this week, I dont think i've ever seen a 172 ph1 in the same colour as mine.
Any advice or suggestions on how to improve it is very much appreciated
What i've bought for it so far,
172 ph1 front bumper
172 ph1 rear bumper- however, i think im going to sell it because i prefer the 172 ph2 rear bumper lookers meaner.
Black lexus tail lights- i know lexus lights get a lot of jip but it ties in my black/red theme, i might try the mk2 ph2 ones though
172 ph1 wings
172 side skirts
Lowering springs 35mm
black renault badge
alloys - JBW OS1 red 15"- i think some black standard 182 alloys might look better however i'll make do with these until i can locate some
one thing i know i need are new headlights, do i go standard 172 ph1 with the dual optics or angel eyes?
I'm having a lot of bodywork done to it so i thought i may aswell give it a fresh start and get every scratch and dent taken out.
Heres my car as of last monday:
(please excuse the wheel trims)
I only did one of the dents, the rest were down to other people
i did the biggest dent/scratch at the bottom on a lampost, i was in a rush and werent concentrating
It amazed me how many other people dented my car in car parks, when i get my car back im parking the other side of the car park! even if its raining. Or i'll park next to expensive cars hoping that they wont want to damage theirs either.
SPRAYED!!! ever so shiny, looks like new
Door mouldings, im keeping the bullets black
im trying these wing mirrors because they were free and just needed spraying, if they look crap on i'll have to get some standard ones and colour code them. The ones i had were knackered. Thats my new bonnet aswell, i had to buy a new one cos someone reversed into me and it buckled -_-
These are the alloys i have atm
This week my bumpers and grill shud be sprayed, car lowered and everything put together, i'll keep you posted.
