then my h&r 45mm springs arrived, had to go to renault to pick up a few things and was told hmmm have u lowered your car, i said no so they put a standard clio next to mine and there was a noticible diff, after seeing dave 138s clio on same springs i thought i can live with that, then the day arrived it was lashing down and the brightend up so we got to work

then it looked like this

so while i was standing there doing nothing i thought i would have a ggo at this

masked off the half moon really easy to do, stood around 40cm away from the lights done few light coats with ford panther black so they have a metalic flip in them, left to dry for half hour another few coats again another half hour to dry once happy applied a few coats of laquer leave to dry and the back on the car ( the black plastic around the edge of the light comes off really easy only few clips)

helps if you have somewere warm to put them to dry, in my case put the central heating on lol

Think if I tried to do that would not look as good! Ha ha. Wish I could as I really like it. Have to find someone who can. Think it would go well with my red mk3 tbh.

you see on mine i wanna remove rear bump strips, metal plates, do something with the badge and get my spoiler on and the lights will look even better, its really not tht hard to do mate

 

[Liquid yellow 182]

Nice! Yeah I'd love to remove my rear bump strips and smooth over them but sounds v expensive lol.
