Not another "Upgrade of the Downgrade" Thread...

[Harpham]

So after about a month and a half of ownership here is how I am getting on...

Here is how it stood after the last thread I made:

Couple of bits new...

First off, my exhaust went, so quick phonecall to Ktec where an order was placed for a Supersport Recessed Exhaust. Arrived the next day :approve: and we got onto fitting it:

When we first fitted it, it was a bit wonky!!

so after CS advice, cable ties and new exhaust mounts were fitted

Also ordered a KTR Panel Filter, as im getting ready to service the car and ordered myself a new splitter

Before new splitter:

After new splitter: (Warning!!! Skoda Content)

And a couple more pics... Whoring much!!!

(Leave my dirty arches alone)

Only want a Cup Spoiler now and ill be done!

 

[Dyewitness]

stunning!

 

[Tigger]

Did you go for the Supersports version of the recessed exhaust mate?

Looks really well, nice mods

 

[TimR26]

Car is looking great with the bits you've added. Think I might swap my 307 splitter for a Skoda one.

 

[latza]

what exhaust trim is that? i seriously need 1

 

[Jamie]

I'd imagine it to be a 182 one.

 

[K1NGY]

where did u get that skoda splitter from? looks great!

Skoda dealer probablay lol.

Car looks good, not fancy a set of the raceland coilovers from K-Tec?

 

[guysy]

Very nice, Exhaust is sitting much better now.

Agree about the cup splitter.

Flash makes the arch gap look quite bad but bottom pic the ride height looks pretty perfect for me.

 

[twingors]

Lower it and cup spoiler and its done! nice car though mate!

 

[clairemae]

looking good :approve:

Its a standard Clio 182 one I think.. I ordered the Ktec exhaust system with Carbon Surround. And it basically came as the standard surround and then you have to stick the carbon bit on, so I thought id leave it standard to match the rest of the car

where did u get that skoda splitter from? looks great!

As above, Skoda Dealership £10.19 + Vat

Lower it and cup spoiler and its done! nice car though mate!

I wouldnt mind lowering it, but it scrapes part of the exhaust under the car when I try to put it down my drive now, so there would be no chance getting it down if i lower it :dapprove:

Yea went for the supersport, basically because it was a tad cheaper and im a skint student lol.

Went to play football today, pulled into the ground and already scraped my splitter gonna try to wet + dry the scratches out... Proper gutted!

 

[Brian172]

Looks good mate.

 

[sarahlou]

Looks well nice, wish I could afford one as good as that!

 

[Adam_S]

Looks good

 

[Harpham]

Thanks for the comments peeps...

Kind of on topic, but here is a pic of the car when I first got it:

I posted a thread on NottsCarClub to show how I was getting on with the car.

One response was:
"The black wheels look too small. The silver ones like they could carry a mondeo. Neither are a good choice imo."

Made me "LOL"... They are 17" wheels and look "too small"

I like that splitter...which model Skoda is it from? Do you have a part number?

Thanks.

[SammyT]

very nice!

 

[Tom_90]

looks good man, where abouts in notts are you? i recognise the area but cant think where it is

 

[v15ben]

Good choice on the exhaust. The Supersport one sounds that little bit better! I was playing in some tunnels with mine this afternoon, deafening everyone else

 

[clio carl]

nice choice of exhaust

Eastwood way mate... Pics were taken in the Ikea underground car park bit.
How about you? Need to meet all the local CS people lol

Does sound great, not too loud either! When I was taking some pics in the car park, i revved the engine a bit and set off a couple of car alarms :rasp:

nice choice of exhaust

Yours sticks out alot more than mine. You cant see it looking straight down! Which is how I wanted it anyway, so it sits in line with the bumpers curve!

 

[v15ben]

Yep I set off my first car alarm outside a mate's house at 11pm. So much for a quiet residential street
