Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Cheers mate, really appreciate it

Yep remember yours too, has the mint engine bay? You made me buy a front strut looking at yours lol Organising a meet in warwick on easter sunday if you want to pop over? not too far.

Hehe, im a bit lower now to what it was like at the bronx meet

Yer, tbh i never really thought about fitting the comps, they looked mint on their own but they wouldnt have suited my car or my style lol

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Where did you get your cage, looks good

 

[BIFCAIDS]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

i dont mean to offend or sound nasty but your making a mess of that car bud sorry, none of it makes sence

 

[Bazzon]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Bits i like bits i dont, theres way to much going on now.

Either remove the rear seats completely or remove the cage.

 

[Nick172Cup]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

It really is a marmite car and unfortunately I hate it. Nothing goes with anything but as long as you like it...

The only way I could see it looking good is if your putting them steelies on painting them body colour or yellow, defnately need to CC'd the bumpers also.

 

[VeinAST]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Either stripped interior with yellow/red centred steels or sport interior with the same.

Cage doesn't work with interior.

But it is your style Clio I guess.

 

[adam172]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

agree defently colour code the bumpers next - paint the pink bits of the steelies yellow - strip the interior and it will look sweet......oooooor even better keep the interior and sell me the cage

 

[danjf]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

y u putting vw centres on the wheels?i think the banded steelies look good and its a really good idea but think u got the colours wrong, id colour code the centre of the wheels and the rest of the car and its look real good

 

[Mickb]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

will look better once the steelies are painted up and on. should tie in then

 

[sir--fox]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Do the pink of the steelies yellow and the white of the steelies same blue as car. Remove rear seats. Paint all the black bits on the bumper yellow. Now that's a crazy car

that is what hes doing

 

[Tom 46]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Car had its MOT today so didnt fit the cage completely and didnt remove seats either. Going to be stripping the interior when i get it back.

For now going to be spraying the centers yellow and the lips white again to freshen them up. Then in the summer will CC the lips blue.

Stickers are also coming off when i get car back.

Eventually will get round to smoothing the bumpers off and colour coding them but have to stay put for a lil while

I know its a marmite car, but thats what im like lol! :clown:

 

[adam172]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

i dunno why but the more i look at it the more i like the pink on blue??? i would spend ur money colour coding bumpers and keep the steelies as they are

LMAO!!!! :rasp:

Yeah, eventually all the red bits will be sprayed yellow so it will just be blue and yellow.

Looks kinda odd with red wheels though lol. Was hoping to have steelies on by now, thats why i started spraying everything yellow

O, and thanks for the comments

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Just ordered some yellow headlight bulbs. Think they will be a bit different aswell and fit the theme well

Talking to my mate about spraying the lenso's yellow next week....god he hates me lmao!

 

[Tom 46]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Failed MOT today lol. Only on stupid things like wrong colour bulbs and what not. So been busy swapping them all around this morning.

Bad news is that my windscreen has cracked aswell :/ Dont know weather due to stone (hopefully!) or by me trying to fit cage back in and pressing against the glass. Either way got to get that sorted aswell now....

But on the plus side, as long as i can get steelies on soon i'll be on EU-Mania stand at ISTS show in april!! ahhhhhh lol

[Tom 46]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

[sir--fox]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

I agree with you. When you're messing with a 1.2 or whatever you're not scared of f**king up .. and if you do it's cheaper!

 

[Tom 46]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Righty ho, been working non stop on these bloody wheels again yesterday lol. Managed to get 2 of them done and on before the Euro meet last night

Looks really odd lol, but wheels look awesome. Love the stance from the front, looks mean as f00k! Uploading pics now.

 

[Tom 46]

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Love the stance from front!!

I know theres a massive arch gap at front now, didnt have time to adjust coilovers as i only got wheels on 10mins before we left lol!

And when i do lower it, jesus it'll be low lol. Can only just get onto drive how it is atm. Uploading 2 more pics to show lol

 

[Tom 46]
