NOT ANOTHER CUP SPOILER???

[CHRISK172+]

Have never been 100% happy with the Clio when I bought it, but theres was nothing wrong with it that couldn't be put back so now was the time for a little facelift.

From this.....

To this.......

Thought about a Cup Spoiler, but there getting all too common these days, no offence intended, so to be a liitle different I decided to send the Double Spoiler i'd had sitting around to the bodyshop, as they are pretty rare and still have that factory fit look. Had to chop the brake light plug off and re-wire through the spoiler and fit standard Renault brake light which i think suits, as it simplifies the rear end.

Also sent the carbon bonnet to the bodyshop as i've been toying with putting a standard one back on so this was a compromise and it seemed agood idea to send the front bumper too, get rid of the stone chips that were on it from when I bought it.

And whilst the bumper was off it was an ideal time to change the front grills back to standard and give a more stndard look.

Not bad for £120 (Dad's mates rates I believe). Put everything back together with stainless fixings as the originals looking a bit rusty. Just need to get myself a decent cover ready for the winter.

Not a fan. Cup spoilers nice for a reason it's simple and blends in with the rest of the car...Nout common about it! - You could say the same about the speedlines, but you've got them...

bonnet looks better painted.

Speedlines are very popular, for a very good reason, form flowed and Cup status etc..b**ch to keep clean imo. Were on car when got it so no reason to change. Like the Cup spoiler, but just being a little different. And the nearest thing from standard was the Double Spoiler which is factory fit and follows the lines perfectly.

spoiler is a joke imo... bonnet is not my bag... other than that looks a tidy motor...

Looks great Chris!

Spoiler looks well tidy IMO, hope the ali parts fitted ok?

Bonnet, bumper and grille have all improved the overall look.

For 120 notes you gotta be happy....

Be good to catch up and see it in the metal mate.

 

[Batman]

[Brown.]

Ali bit fitted a treat, I think thats the bit that makes it look so much better than a cup spoiler, I'm so glad I didn't go down that route. Would have been a serious mistake.......lmfao:lolup:

Be good to catch up with you, let me know when you have some free time, still gagging for that shandy

I reckon the profile of the new spoiler is nice and clean.

That said, I'd like a cup spoiler on my 172FF, how much do you think your dads mate would want for spraying one up in monaco blue chris?

At a guess, Maybe £50 or so. Was done by Newark Coachpainters on Bowbridge Road (behind Andy Taylors Motors).

just fill gap in between spoiler, not the best photoshop, but you get the idea, means bigger standardy looking spoiler

 

[Peperami]

Bonnet and grilles look much better fella

 

[GarethM]

looks better

i prefer the cup spolier though imo

 

[Leeshez]

 

[madmike1]

Turnin's are more common than cup spoilers! You would have been better getting a cup spoiler and improving the look. nevermind about how common they are!

 

[Christopher]

getting there fella

i still prefer the standard bonnet and spoiler though

 

[richlawson]

love everything apart from the spoiler

trophy one would of been diff it would be so nice with one

 

[HartZ]

Much better than the spoiler you had before matey.. good job

 

[MarkCup]

Grill's better, bonnet's better.

Spoiler wouldn't look too bad if it at least matched the profile of the roof toward the edge. Or is it the pictures that make it look like it doesn't match/line up??

 

[calypso]

i like your car dude, it looks alot better without the carbon, spoiler looks sweet as well, wouldn't have it myself but it do look nice...

 

[Turner]

Yeah chris really nice mate spoiler looks good and think it suits the car tbh,the grills have made quite a big difference mate,i like.
just managed to fit mine

 

[CHRISK172+]

Looks good matey, fancied one myself, but with this one sitting around, I thought i'd give it a go first.

 

[K-Tec Racing]
