New wheels - and a few other bits!

[whatisjustis]

Having picked the car up from Renault on Friday after they ruined my front bumper (http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=349308 I decided to spend sone time on the car today. The 16s have been in my garage for months and knowing that I wanted a Flamer and that they'd look good on it, I bought them before the car! With a trip to the Isle of Whight coming up over the Bank Holiday I thought I'd best put it back to it's go-kart like state and remove the 17s that came on the car when I bought it. (See the 'For Sale' section soon...). Boy, had I been missing out!

I also fitted new number plates from fancyplates.com and painted my front diamond to match the theme I'm going for. I'm not sure what to do next though. Lower it, or buy a BMC CDA?!

Anyway, pictures... (excuse the size, I hadn't realised when taking them)

Thanks for all your comments! Bearing in mind that the silvatecs are in the post, and I've decided to do the bullets black with red lettering, what next? I'm going to need new front discs and pads next month so I'll be looking at painting the calipers. Throw some colour suggestions at me...!

 

[Hazza]

I think keep the calipers black.

Looks smart already, dont want to ruin it!

 

[GazM]

red calipers

 

[whatisjustis]

red calipers

Hmmmm! I was thinking that...

 

[cat171]

Looks nice, wheels are a bit on the dark side for me though.
Calipers - either black or silver, none of the red business.

 

[Ash87]

[Android]

Smoked side repeaters.
black bullets with red lettering.

I hear you mate. The 17s grew on me and If I wasn't going to the Isle of Whight this Bank Holiday and loading the car with gear and people I'd have kept them on a while longer. They are indeed Superturismos and are now for sale. If they were 16's they'd be staying for sure...

I've been over once before as I went to Portsmouth Uni. Me and my mates took our bicycles though. Grossly underestimated the roads to be honest! Some of those hills....! Really looking forward to getting the car over there though :evil:
