Some 5 door updates

[Cro]

Had a few bouts of spare time over the last bit and easter there so got down to some nitty gritty on the car. Polished the plenum by hand a couple of months ago and it came out very well, even if it did leave me with no fingerprints. Along with the polished fuelrail from batman (thanks) its coming along nicely, cam cover to be done next and the strut brace to be painted blue. Not long after when getting sick of the rear bump strip being covered in white marks after polishing i covered it in carbon vinyl and it came out fine, depsite what people think it doesnt look tacky or completely unreal... until the days that carbon strips are available this is my next best bet.
This week I had got round to prepping and painting my newly acquired billy bargain cup spoiler so with some trial and error it was quite pleased with my first attempt at a large painting surface. Hope you enjoy!
I should also mention the car is so high because its up on stands have a search for my other threads to see it better should you wish - http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=251516

Probly should have kept it all in one thread tbh but sure

Great 5 door, i'm not normally a fan! Spoiler is an improvement of untold amounts!!!!!!!! As for the CF strip, i'm not totally sold but it might grow on me!

Very tidy car though

My insurance is 900 with greenlight all mods declared (22, 1ncb), tax is £105 as it stays the same as the original engine for some reason . As for polishing, several different grades of sand paper from 40 to 2000 grit and ALOT of time and patience, plenty of more detailed threads if you search for them
