Update
Friday afternoon came a tipping point in the car, I was sitting on the fence whether to stop and save for next car or to carry on spending on the car. I went with the 2nd option, spend spend spend. Now I'd just planned to do rear bumper and not bother with the front, however sport front wings came up in my local area and I managed to get him down to a dirt cheap price, like a couldn't say no price, in pearl black too!
They were both very dirty and looked to be slightly light scratched but nothing I thought that couldn't be corrected. As these were going to be stored until I got the funds for front bumper and side skirts I only cleaned one up to see the real condition, I'm pretty chuffed with the condition to be honest
They look a lot worse than they do in pictures, but that's always the case with pictures! You get the idea
As you've got probably noticed too I picked up some sport sills protectors while I was there, very cheap too! These cleaned up nicely too
I haven't got round to fitting these yet, quite frankly because I don't know how these are fitted? Anyone give me any help, is it just doubled sided tape?
But the wings will come up better than I thought, a lot better condition that the ones I already have on the car!
That's just a quick clean, it's difficult to put too much pressure on them, so will save doing that for when they're on the car!
Comparison
Very very pleased with these considering the price I paid.
I originally found a body kit, front&rear bumper, wings, side skirts for £100 that would need a respray, I got a respray quote of £400 roughly +vat so adding it all up, I thought it's not worth it finding a kit cheap and giving it a respray so would just wait for parts to come up in pearl black. Now everyone who has a pearl black Clio who's looking to do similar will know the headache of trying to find parts. This guy I picked the wings up from has told me he's got it all, rear bumper In good condition, front bumper In mint condition, side skirts, so this looks like it's going to be done a lot sooner than I thought, it's excited times for the Clio haha!
Waiting for a few things to come in the post this week too! Cars going into the garage tomorrow wish me luck!
