Yes some clear repeaters are on my list aswell, will give it a nice clean look 
painted : Windscreen wiper arms and the hood emblem.
lowered it a bit more on the front
resulted in this :
I'm now preparing the rear bumper for his appointment with the spayer (scheduled for monday :clap
Already removed if you watch the pix closely.

there is some small color discoleration thats correct, 99/100 none metallic colors on cars will have the same issue.
Thats because plastic/fiber reacts different to the paint than metal/aluminium/etc.

I could do that but then i would have 2 holes to fill up
(these aren't stickers as on the phase 2 )

Think it would bug me the car being different shades of yellow, nice to see oz back on.
I bet its nowhere near as noticable in real life as in the pictures, yellow often does that.

Painted the inserts yellow :
And back to antracite and red accent alloy's, allong with red calipers :
Black Badges :

Wanted to put the 15mm spacers on the back to give it a more wide/agressive look.
For this to work the back had to be rolled and i had to do allot of tweaking on the rear bumper.
But finally it fitted without rubbing and lowered it another cm

Went to Belgium for the easter, and gave the clio a go in the ardens :race:
Wow these cars are insane they drive and stick so damn good, its a shame we don't have these roads in holland (probably a good thing to )
I went on a small drive with my father, he almost skit his pants first time he got a chance to experience it in this enviroment.
Some pics for you guys, sunflower in his natural habitat :
Got some minor issues with my custom exhaust sorted just before i left.
Its way more silent now and even more fun to drive after 5k rpm

Forgot to mention that i also picked up some hardened engine mounts (there standard but the previous owner filled them with poly utherane ).
This wil hopefully stop the engine from the dreaded knocking under hard acceleration.
I replaced the dogbone with powerflex rubbers a few weeks back wich made it allot better, but it is still there so i hope this will get ridd of it all

Well time for an other update.
This time the audio got a major overhaul.
But as you probably now by now i am realy realy precise so gave myself these guidelines.
- Enough bass without the need of a subwoofer
- Keep as much loading space as possible (its still a small car )
- weight of the stuff as low as possible
- Very high-quality build (a doubt = not good enough)
- Stealth, not able to see from the outside
- Use the cabling from within the doors for the woofers (no drilling).
As allot of this stuff came from my prior car so not much had to be bought.
Setup :
Rockford Fosgate T162S Compo Set (High-End)
Rockford Fosgate Punch P400-4 Amp (High-End)
Lanzar DC54 Woofers (High-End)
Cabling/acc. : Kicker/Dietz/Necom/Audisson
Car Stereo: JVC KD-R901
Here are the pix from the install, took me a total of about 30-35 hours but i'm very very pleased with how it turned out.
Everything has been tuned now, time to enjoy the sound while driving.
I placed the filters in the storage bin under the passenger seat.
This is how it looks now
High Quality cable and battery plug with build in fuse
Cable goes under the car to have less interference
Rockford Fosgate Tweeter in original location as standard
16,5cm woofer fitted after allot of work
Rockford Fosgate Punch P400-4 Amp (light/small and Highly Powerfull ! ideal for the clio !
Almost the same space in the trunk as before

Cracking sunflower you've got But I have to say I liked it better on the 16" f1s but it's good to be different. Tidy install too.

Well time for an update, been a while
Allot of you guys will like this ---> The OZ 16" are back :cheers:
Somehow i think these suit the car more than the other ones i had, and especially in antracite ...
Got hold of another set, these are not the special ones for renault but the normal (universal) ones.
They where realy damaged (by previous owner=woman) due to living in Amsterdam and parking against the stupid curbs..........
These on the other hand got some nice extra's, came with original OZ spacers (20mm) to increase ET to 17 instead of 37.
For the front this is no problem but for the back im going to stick with the 15mm's.
I brought these to a powdercoater and picked them up yesterday = transformed them into this :
Im going to install some cambershims on the back and mount the wheels this weekend.
So more in a few days

Yeah nice touch, right :rofl:
I'm going to create some custom 2.0 16v bullets but for now these will do.
Optically downgraded the car this way ...... makes for a big laugh when someone try's to challenge me now ....

wowowow very nice car mateaudio install looks good also

Well the new alloys are on
What do you guys think ?
Also working on the cold air intake
This thing sounds like a scream of the devil, extremely powerfull sound.
Unfortunately during the mounting of the camber shims (i will make some new pictures of that later) i came across
2 issues. First is the left cv joint is broken needs replacing. And the second, the right Raceland fron coilover is leaking like a b*tch.
