TomC's Clio 182 FF LY

[Christopher.]

Id go with just some lowering springs.

​Some cooksport springs would set the height nicely.

 

[TomCaz]

Well it's got Ebach pro lowering springs on it already which makes me think to just leave it as is...!!!!

 

[R-Sport.]

NICE!

Looks great-

I have exactly the same outside!

LY, Eibach & Milltek!

Sadly I took the renault badge off the PH1 earlier & found 3 holes in the tailgate where the old badge used to fix to the bodywork- so I cant fit my new RS badge

Haha best set up mate.... Oh really that's annoying... Could get the new style Renault Sport badge...??? Not the RS badge.....

​Pretty sure you have Eibach pros, which don't actually really lower it at all.. Would look perfect with Cooksport springs fitted..

Car looks epic apart from that.. Makes me want another one even more..

 

[TomCaz]

Wanted to sort out my headlights as they have done the Clio clouding....

My old tatty one

The new unused one

Much better *them 2 white dots are my socks *

[Richyy182]

How did you do the belts?

 

[TomCaz]

How did you do the belts?

Thanks man
With literally Aerail washing gel in some warm water and a soft brush with abit of brushing and then just left them to dry

 

[TonkaTruck]

The seat belts are the next job on my to do list.

Lovely to see a LY being kept in tip-top condition!
Any more future plans?

 

[Chris_786]

Looks fantastic, LY is the best choice, biased though...

Yeah they make a massive improvement yeah trying to get it back to it, still more do to but that's why I love it... Coilovers next I think

Yeah man haha I still look out the window in the morning/night and see that colour and puts a smile on my face... Glad I picked LY

 

[Stefan.]

Dont ruin the thread now with cheap coilovers

Brilliant thread, love all the little details (lights, seatbelts) they make a massive difference imo

[TomCaz]

Haha oh dear

 

[Stefan.]

Haha oh dear

The rear is way too soft!

I would go for the kw2 that are in the for sale thread or H&R personally. i know bilstein are bringing out cup pack fitment of their coilover.

You can have lowz and great handling, but not with budget coilovers

 

[TomCaz]

New parts.... CARBON

And then fitted

 

[UKBraderz]

Great progress so far, think the carbon looks a tad tacky though.

 

[GW200]

VERY nice example mate

 

[MarcB]

The car looks stunning, Makes me want to sell the Trophy and get a LY FF.

With the rest of the carbon you might want to get a headlight control panel

Thanks, yeah carbon is all down to personal preference

VERY nice example mate

Thanks man
