Weekend work on the Clio. (Lots of pics)

[paul]

least its looks a bit better! any excuse! hahahaha!

 

[Pep]

Yeah, I don't want a stainless one so need to try and keep this one on the car if I can!
Mine has done about 12k? maybe more than yours though, so will be worse!

 

[paul]

I know it will be a bit worse and i started to win mine back at 16k (now one 20k) so it wasnt that bad tbh! but at least it will tidy it up! get the drill bit out and give it hell! LOL (if its that bad) but be careful there two skins to these zausts you dont really want to go through the second layer!

 

[Pep]

Aye I'll give it a go when I get chance.
Mines on 35.5k.

Might have access to some ramps as a mate has just started at a garage as a mechanic, so will make it easier for me!

 

[paul]

yeah just rub it down and mask it up! and go from there! i have won mine back tbh! and i know rust comes from the inside out and that water lingers in the boxes like mad! but at least mine looks as good as i can get it! look forward to hearing how you get on mate! i layed on my head for a day and did it! what joy! LOL

i did try a rust cure product and tired to paint over thaat but when it got hot it didnt like it at all! so just had to stick with rubbing it down to the best of my ability and spraying it! hence then no more rust or stains of rust! :approve: and thats after a year!!!!

 

[Pep]

Cheers for the advice mate, I might try and give it a go this weekend if I can, sooner the better I guess!

 

[paul]

you know were to get it from dont you?! if you need advise ive prob been there LOL!

 

[Pep]

From Halfords isn't it?

Looks sweet mate.

I'm still trying to find a mo to get some pics of mine up. Took the front splitter off at the weekend, don't think I'm going to replace it as it will inevitably be smashed immediately on my drive. Will just keep the replacement and fit it if/when I move or come to selling the car...

yeah the big halfords as the small/medium size shops dont sell it! (super store) :approve: prob best to ring up first but knowing halfords staff they wont know what there on about! LOL!

 

[Pep]

Cheers Paul, I might try and get it slightly cleaner than yours.....

Thanks mate, get some taken.
Just buy one and be careful, or buy a pug one like me, flexible so can't be smashed!

Was a spur of the moment thing Steve, but I just missed Clios, and couldnt have anything slower than the Lupo!

[GOD DAMN PICTURE OF THE BOTTOM OF pauls CAR!!]

least its looks a bit better! any excuse! hahahaha!

I vote, the next time you post a pic of the bottom of your car you get banned for a week! ffs! Every other thread you post in has a picture of your painted exhausts. Like who the f**k looks under their car for dirt :rasp: Dirt is meant to be there unless its in the factory.

Nice work on the 182 btw. No paul not yours.

Jesus Pepsi, i didnt know Spondon had any mansions kicking around because if thats your house it looks impressive. Deffinately liking the new motor, it sits in well with your driveways current silver/white fetish judging by those pics lol.

PS. I think you should splash out on new alloys and springs so i can have those current ones off you.

Thats true! How did you manage to do the house?

Haha, it's not a mansion mate, only 3 bed! Just used to be a pig farm so got the yard at the back, garage, carport and barn!

Thanks, I love the car! But alloys and coilovers are a long way off currently, no money!
