Ste 182 project

[Ste 182]

Finally got my Renaultsport Clio 182 on Friday morning and got to work pretty much right away replacing break pads and disks, also replaced the stock air filter for a pipercross performance filter. Been out in it today and loving it so much more fun than my old c2 vtr despite that achieiving a lil over 150 bhp.

Got a couple of ideas for my 182 for the future I'm thinking new exhaust system and remap and a couple cosmetic changes but mainly changing the bullets - can anyone point me in the right direction where I can get spares? Also need a replacement front splitter wouldn't mind a carbon one - again anyone know where to get?

Sorry no pics doing this from the iPhone will get some up soon though.

Thanks for looking

Ktec or Streamline Carbon do the carbon splitters iirc. Streamlines being a two piece and ktec's being a full splitter. Don't quote me on that though!

Bullets, get signed up to the membership thingy for £10, someone will no doubt be getting rid of some in the for sale section or post up in 'Wanted' about them.

Apologies for not making any sense at all, bad day.

First update..

So as many of you know the NW (Manchester especially) is notoriously bad for weather... but today was an exception was nice, sunny and warm!

So finally got around to washing my 182 and getting some bits doing!

Firstly washed, clayed, washed, clayed, washed and waxed...

Also did me dads.

Then fitted chromed indicator bulbs to front - need to get some more for the rear ordered.

Then set about putting the new Fabia splitter I bought from the local Skoda garage - £10 done!

Now just waiting until next week to get the NW Performance exhaust fitted - can't wait to get this crap off centre powerflow off.

Then its time to start saving to sort my paintwork out, which I'm guessing will cost me fair bit as the front end is a mess! Plenty of chips, flakes and scratches to be sorted.

Example...

Nothing else to report - so thanks for looking will update next week with hopefully better pics (not from the iphone) and some pics of the new exhaust system.

Cheers Ste
