Pics 4 Mikey16vclio

Sorry bout the delay in replying been busy, got the spoiler from a mate coz he wrote his 1.9D off b4 he had chance to spary and fit it, if youve got a 16v spoiler you have to have the tailgate smoothed and then two new holes drilled to mount the spoiler, make sure the previous rivet holes are welded up coz if they are filled the paste will fall out once the boot has been opened and closed to many times (vibrations), or you can do what i did, i had the saxo style spoiler mounted over the existing 16v spoiler to make it look a bit different, coz normally people just have the old one removed and the new one fitted, it took a load of fiddly cutting to get it right but i think it looks good. Top job by my mate Mick at Dream Finish Coachwork (Telford).

The alloys i did myself, sanded them down re-spayed them and then laquered them, was going to sell but them and get a pair of Prima 17s but decided to keep it more original.

Few more pics below if youre interested, hope ive helped.

[Adams_16v]

Mikey mate, need to sort you out them pics. iv got a zip file with em on but ur yahoo main wont accept it cos its 3mb. have u got another account?

bazz, nice motor mate, where u get your strut brace from???

Cheers

 

[RenaultFreak]

Is that a Laguna steering wheel? the interior looks amazing mate!!! Nice car, keep it stock plz....

 

[Adams_16v]

Think thats the phase 2 steering wheel with airbag..!

 

[Paul16V]

Yeah looks like it. Some of the later ones had it. Prefer the old one myself . Damn airbags are nothing but trouble hehe.

 

[Dafydd]

yeah phase 2 one. ripped mine out.

 

[Baz]

35mm drop at the front and then levelled at the back, yeah stock leathers, give um a good turtle wax every two weeks to keep um soft, strut brace came from Demon Tweeks using the discount alog with the K&N breather, since ive fitted it oil temp aint run so high, might b coinsidence though, got an eco-tek but aint got round to fitting it yet, dunno whether to bother. Phase two steering wheel with problematic airbag!!!

 

[Mikey16vClio]

Why problamatic?

Think some 16v leathers r going on my wishlist.

Lowered with a kit or coilovers, cheers, Mikey.

 

[BenR]

dont really like the leather, as if they aint MINT they look old, creased and tacky.

 

[Baz]

Lowerede on springs at the front, the back was a nightmere as i had to have to dampers replaced as they seized up and wouldnt come off! But the hastle was worth it.

The air bag started flashing at me so i thought it was due a new battery, took it in and a wire at the back of the steering wheel had come out the connector, £80 later and it will still need a new batt this year sometime!

Yeah if the leather aint looked after it goes dry and crispy and looks crap, find some well looked after and its the most comfortable ever!

 

[Mikey16vClio]

Give me 1st dabs mate.

Seems to me the Clio has been good to u really; if thats all uve got to moan about. I think a new gearbox is calling my 16v.

 

[Baz]

Well the air bag and a faulty immob. that cost me £340 last week, but hey the pleasure it gives me when i blow away all the boy racers and reps is worth it!!!

Theres 2 16vs by me being broken, was there last weekend, gearboxes still in um, not damaged i think, could find out?

 

[Mikey16vClio]

Hopefully a few miles yet but i need some clocks for the outside temp display if ur goin so if u wanna get a price & ill pay u £5 plus p+p. Thanx, Mikey.

 

[Baz]

Yeah ill have a look, my mates having all of 1s interior for his 5, if there some and they work ill get um, where abouts are u?
