[Illusion]

Lookin good mate

 

[172gal]

Looking good. Jeez i love the bonnets on valvers/willys. So aggressive looking!!

 

[16V_Matt]

looks good kid!!

 

[Rajk]

that looks the nuts like that, the rear arch looks wicked without the bumpstrip

 

[vavavoom172]

lookin good my mate, its funny that renault never carried on the theme and fitted a air vent bulge bonnet to the 172 and the cup since they are probably the latest versions of this wicked car. what is it with car manufacturers these days? they dont seem to style the cars like they used to do.

 

[scotty16v]

looks better from the side, but prefer to have the badge on the bonnet.

 

[jon_r]

v.nice

 

[RobFenn]

That second picture looks really cool..agree with scotty, put the renault badge back on.

Yep Reno should have stuck the valver bonnet on the 172!!

 

[ViolentJ]

badge is staying off, didnt expect it to be to everyones taste

[cat171]

looking good !

i see you got the M3 mirrors for it, are they electric + heated like the 16v ones?

one think tho, the back lights arent to my taste, still its ur car and u obviously like them so fair enough.

a valver still looks wicked even today, which is why ive got one !

 

[nev16v]

look sweet mate, doors and de badged bonnet ar emint just like mine.

 

[Rajk]

ah nev you brought the beemer then and still have your valver

 

[ViolentJ]

yes theyre electric but not heated and theyre a pain in the arse, i can get left and right to work on both mirrors but up and down... no luck so far... the car has loads more wires than the mirrors do and im pretty sure i tried every combination so for now ive given up, not like ill need to adjust then very often anyway. Theyre also a bit of a pain to fit, cut loads off but can only get 2 out of 3 bolts to screw on, thats for both mirrors, theyre on tight but it took forever, a lot of brute force required.

They do look LOADS better than the originals though and theyre tinted.

As for the lights, pics NEVER do them justice, they look sooo much better in real life.

This might be why people get out of my way on the motorway without me tailgating/driving like a knob.

I cant see that happening if I get a new clio, it could be a 1.2 following them (not that theres anything wrong with 1.2s)

I can tell a MK1 172 behind me but the MK2? I have to adjust my mirroors to see if the wings are slightly wider!

 

[ViolentJ]

cheers for all the coments

tints next if i can find somewhere local-ish to get it done!

[CooperS-Boy]

[ViolentJ]
