Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Looks spotless. Agree with Chippen, tints need to go..

 

[pastieman]

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

tbh in the flesh the tints are not that dark i think the lighting and the iphones camera makes them darker...

cheers for the comments guys

should be putting my own stamp on it in the next few weeks

Agreed, I have a monaco too an after seeing yours with tints i defo wont be getting mine done, nice clean example tho.

Cup spoiler needed too and lose the nipple ring on the front imo.

Nice and clean looking Clio

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Having seen this car in person, albeit a year or so ago, this is absolutely mint. Sat nav too, so very rare! Enjoy!

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Nice car

Glad you like it Mark, many plans for it?

I personally liked the tints, I think they suit the colour really well. And they don't seem as dark as they are in the pics. Now it's clean get out and drive it

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Looks good dude.

 

[Robiniho77]

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Looks really clean mate.

Just wish on the standard 172's they put some nicer wheels on to start with..

Still plenty of time to change or if you personally like them to keep them on there!!

 

[pastieman]

Thought I'll up date this abit lol

Since owning he clio I have removed the aftermarket steering wheel and replaced it with a standard one which I had re-trimmed !!! Also had to replace he squib as the horn wiring was all bunt out!!

I also have replaced all four shocks, mountings etc... With Renault items along with spax lowering springs!!!

Sprayed a few things under the bonnet black to compliment the new engine cover I bought from the dealer.

Fitted an after market head unit with iPod and handsfree

Fitted footwell Leds and two above the cup holders so they come on with the side lights!!!

Also replaced the sender unit in the tank as it looked to intermittently fault but It looks to be the multi control unit at fault ( on order)

A few pics... Need to get some of it lowered

 

[Knuckles]

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Looks immaculate mate

I really like the matt black engine and the silver cover!

 

[pastieman]

Little up date new seats

Enjoy

 

[pastieman]

With all this bloody weather Can't get any decent pics

But as I was sorting out the air bag light today I got a couple of wet pictures lol
The pics show the slight drop on the spax springs

And another shot of the seats

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

It all looks great mate, apart from the tints.

As said they are letting down a lovely looking car!

Little update will have to get better pictures....

I had my headlining, a pillars and hand brake cover re trimmed in alacantara by Austin porter

Just waiting for the sun visors to come back re trimmed and spray shack to send my plastic items in Matt black

Also a quick picture of my boot tidy tray

 

[cafcross]

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

I really like what you're doing with this. A brilliant base being made better.

 

[HANDSOME RICH]

Looks really well....first what seats are they? And where did you get that boot tray from?

 

[pastieman]

Seats are from a trophy and the boot tray is from the dealer comes out of a mk3 Clio

Cheers

 

[pastieman]

As the weather was good thought I would give the Clio a bit of a clean....

 

[andywa]

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Looks spot on mate. I like the direction your taking with this. Also the boot tidy is a good idea.

 

[pastieman]

Right a little update with what I have been doing with the 172!!!

Finished of the interior with the re trimmed sun visors and painted plastics

Also fitted cup spolier, removed front window tints and fitted refurbed wheels along with new tyres

Also I have fitted a gearbox link that shortens the throw slightly, feels alot better!!!

Re: Picked up a 172 from a memebr here !!!

Awesome, although i prefer it on the original wheels fella, some nice touches there though and like the route your going with it.
