v nice dude but 1 suggestion - take the clio badge off the front grill!!

Clarkie172 · Jun 12, 2005

^lol i thought that.lookin good tho

Djw Dave · Jun 12, 2005

Looking really good mate!

Christopher · Jun 12, 2005

loving that front bumper!!!! meannnnnnnnn!!!

IMO would look better without the clio badge....it cheapens the whole thing, which is a shame.

mr sheep · Jun 12, 2005

bumper looks good but sack off the badge please.

The Big Yin · Jun 12, 2005

NIce

Tigger · Jun 13, 2005

thanks for the comments

yeah im thinking of taking the badge off - but I like it too

Wont loose sleep on the badge - want it back as havent had a car in 2 weeks - but sure its worth the wait

heading soon to pick the car up....watch this space

SeanM86 · Jun 13, 2005

Bumper looks well trev. You wont be able to mount much kerbs with that splitter on

davebem · Jun 13, 2005

Christopher · Jun 14, 2005

looks like they have done a great job trev!

love the work on the front bumper.

mines going in to the bodyshop in the next few weeks to have you-know-what fixed also having 172 Mk2 sidestrips and rear bumper sprayed and fitted.

enjoy it mate!

clioman · Jun 14, 2005

what work has been done to that front bumper?

Rich_16v · Jun 14, 2005

Looks like a good quality job but loose the add ons and it will look alot cleaner IMO

Filler cap, sport badge, clio badge on grill

R3OBC · Jun 14, 2005

Lookin nice mate! For me, id remove the flaps for sure, and filler cap, sport badges and clio badge on grill..............would just make it look more subtle and neater round the edges! Oh, and it NEEDS lowered matey, the side-on pic looks mad compared to how much you can see under my skirts....

Exhaust looks mint with the 172 bumper! Hope you are happy with it mate. Out of interest, how does it sound??

Nige12345 · Jun 14, 2005

Hey Mate....Looking Well...Dont Lower It. Ur Car Lowered And Our Roads Are Alot Worse Than Others....If You Have Sense You Will Keek Her That Height As It Looks Smart! Not Boy Racer...If You Want The Low Look For Shows Consider Coilover For The Front To Which You Can AdjustLower For Events Then Raise Again For Day to Day Driving. And You Can Lower The Back Manually With Some 60mm. Its Easy Done. 15mins Changes The Rears.

Think Smart And Save On The Wallet on The Long Run!

Congrats Of A Fine Example!

tomdbomb61_djtj · Jun 14, 2005

have u had the skirts blended in all the way along?

Ali · Jun 14, 2005

Nice mate...But like we said last nite...Lower it...!

Iain C · Jun 14, 2005

sooooooooooooo high! Loose the flaps and fuel cap cover imo

agreed...

Spammy · Jun 14, 2005

The front is awesome!

TheCake · Jun 14, 2005

Looks good but heres a tip. Show pics for the 56kers and link to bigger pics for broadband users. If you were on 56k even though you posted links, youd still have to wait for the images to download.

Johnny_52 · Jun 14, 2005

Lookin sweet bud!! Get rid of the filler cap cover. Get her lowered a touch and some nice mild tints on the windows it will look the dogs B******S

SeanM86 · Jun 14, 2005

Looks mint trev lad. Suits the lines of the clio so well and no more dent in the bonnet.

JayR · Jun 14, 2005

Looking very nice mate........Just needs dropping 60mm now!!!

EXACTLY what he said^^^^

Uh oh just agreed with Rob...DOH!

Oh and is zorst on straight? As in pic looks like theyre kinda sticking out at angles...never looked like that when it was on mine.

MK3COL · Jun 15, 2005

Oh but once you do all of the above it will be one sweet charriot!

Tigger · Jun 15, 2005

Thanks for all the comments.....
Proud of the car as it is - and admire all comments good/bad

Not changing anything so other people will like it - otherwise what would be the point in "owning your own" car?

PLEASE - hold your breath as I still have some things to touch-up....badges and ClioSport stickers - large 1 on the rear window like I had before and maybe a small 1 on the side somewhere.
Badges/dress will be tidied up - flat out at work and typical Irish weather dont leave me much chance to apply the finishing touches.

Also..callipers need a lick of paint too, Plus - shes back in Audio Advice this weekend to get the perspex and light into the amp panel

As for Lowering - give me a chance to get used to the car with the kit on first

(waited 7 months to get the bodywork done so Im more than happy atm) not worried about a mod I cant afford right now but YES it would look sweet. Not so sure my new front would agree with a 35-40mm drop though

Just Wondering.....
Will I damage my paint if I take the sport badges off my front wings?

Thinking of getting a spare fuel cover so I dont have to rip off the one I put effort into getting done - just fancy being able to swap it when I want to

Tigger · Jun 15, 2005

Bump

How is the fuel cap cover removed - the actual "door" ???

Tigger · Jun 15, 2005

Maybe a small chequer decal on the rear left panel...nothing mad

Alan · Jun 15, 2005

Lookin good as always sir....now get her lowered!

Nige12345 · Jun 15, 2005

I Cant Stress How Much 40mm Is...Its All Down To Your Spring Manufacturer...Research And You Shall Find A Drop That Suites You!...

As For Stickers It Wouldnt Be To My Taste, If You Want Clio Sport On Your Car, Put In Under The Clio badge On The Boot, Keep it Subtle And Keep It Sweet

Tigger · Jun 15, 2005

^^ Cheers

Anyone know how to take the fuel door off?

Tigger · Jun 16, 2005

Bump
