Subtle mods added to the burg

[Greeny.]

Added the following to the 172 over the last couple of days:

• C2 Aerial
• Ford Graphite Grey Bullets, Rear Diamond, Clio Badge and Front Diamond
• Cup Spoiler
• Genuine rear discs and pads
• Painted rear calipers 'standard' silver
• CS Tax disc holder and silver side decals
• 5mm ghetto rear spacers

Every time I look at the Clio I feel the turinis (which came on the car, f*****s) look to big so hopefully going to source some f1's in the new year as the turinis could do with new tyres all round anyway. However im unsure whether to keep the f1's silver or to match them to the Graphite grey theme. The only reason I changed the badges from the standard chrome effect was to change it up abit and obviously graphite grey was the best choice to contrast against the pure amount of silver already on the car!!

The light was disappearing by the time I got to where I wanted so these look even worse than my normal attempts tbh, but never the less:

C&C welcomed!

Spot on! What's wrong with the Turini's... reverting back to F1's?

I wrapped my Bullets and Fro. Diamond in faux carbo wrapping vinyl foil... thinking about doing the mirrors now.
Still have these Streamline Carbon Bullets, still can't be bothered to fit these.

Turinis are to big and sheep for me, even though f1's are fairly sheep but look good on Ph2's, just finding a decent straight set now

I was gunna go with everything in carbon but was unsure if I would like it or not so didn't want the expense, but im happy with the results from abit of paint tbh

Looking good! Will look almost identical to mine when you put on the oz f1s, bit of competition I like

Im not going to be wasting my money on ITB's tho , thought about that road on my last Clio and thought it was best not to in the end! I've nearly hit 36k in this now

 

[Naith]

Cheers mate! Its getting there.

Was reading through your Meg thread the other night, good read!

 

[HighSide16]

Looking good mate, are the C2 aerial's a better fit than the CTR ones?

The spacers make a real difference to the stance aswell.

Yes they actually fit well without an overhang at all, alot shorter though but works for me as it doesn't hit on my Cup Spoiler like on my old 172 with a CTR one fitted, oh I also get reception with this as well!

The 25mm's on the front help alot with the stance I just need some coilovers and abit more camber imo.

 

[danzel]

That looks spot on that

 

[Hodgins]

i really like this, the subtle mods have made the biggest difference

 

[Gaz85]

looks really good mate id keep the turinis tho

 

[Y7 ADW]

I really have a soft spot for Icebergs. That is lovely.

 

[200 Alex]

Keep the turinis.

 

[ColinG]

keep the turinis, 15's are too small IMHO,

unless you can find some 16" F1's best clio wheel ever!

 

[AKFM1]

[Greeny.]

Cheers for the comments so far guys, alot of people thinking I should keep the Turinis :S arg I dunno.

Looking good buddy.What exhaust have you got on this at the moment?

BTB, best subtle exhaust ive owned, loved the Yozza Race as well but it was stupid loud.

 

[Will.]

Vids?

 

[Greeny.]

Vids?

Er I don't have any but can get some done at some point

The BTB is abit loud on idle and from cold but once your going its fine, you can hardly hear it at any motorway speeds. I still have the cat in mind you, no doubt it would be louder without.

 

[Bobby.]

very nice greeny you need coilovers you say :rasp:

 

[jesus]

Don't usually like silver but I love this!

 

[AKFM1]

wow that is low mileage! got a good one!

I know a set of 16" Renault Sport spec. O.Z. F1 (N.O.S.) still in a box in Holland.
The regular O.Z. F1's with thick lip edge are quite easy sourced.

Well the faux carbon wrapping foil where leftovers pieces from a befriended signmaker, wrapping cars. Can simply be taken off unlike paint.

 

[sthomasj10]

Look's smart that, nice and subtle.. I like it

 

[Greeny.]

Cheers for the comments guys, im going to be getting the BTB 182 cat mod for it once I have a 182 cat to work with!

 

[JackD]

Absolutely perfect.

 

[guysy]

Looks spot on with the turinis, half makes me wish i'd got an Iceberg.

 

[twingors]

I'm looking for a set of turinis for my 182. U selling?
