Under the hood

[182_surrey]

Hello all,

I have a blue clio 182 and am looking to change under the hood to make
it a bit more colourful and stylish...

So looking at adding/changing the following:

> Induction feed pipe from standard to Samco
> Strut braces
> Ignition leads
> Engine cover

You get the picture but the big question is...what colour ?

Go blue like the car or a different colour to add abit of contract ?!?!?

Look forward to your feedback...

Blue will look good with the car but try not over do it.

Might get slated for this, but why bother? Doesn't help performance in any way, you cant see it whilst driving/parked outside?

Waste of money imo?

Tbh would just concentrate on making it as clean as possible. Uprate leads and hose maybe, but other than that....

Ditch the acoustic valve instead, its free!

Blue engine cover
Blue samco induction hose
Blue Strut Brace.

IMO, any more than this will start looking tacky!

No point in changing the leads as you won't see them if you've still got an engine cover.

Neither does cleaning (detailing?) but people still enjoy doing it - call it a project/call it something to take pride in - either way does it really matter?

The engine cover should be a graphite colour, It will look good and not too over the top.

Will look good what ever colours you choose as long as its done properly!

Just clean it, (what Dave said) and uprate the leads. There's no point if it's not a show car.

i wouldn't bother with strut braces.
paint a few things in the bay subtle colours that go with the car, like black and blue etc. i wouldn't go too far with it tho just tidy it up a little.
