It’s a credit to you mate. Looks really good. Is it a Ford colour you painted it?

I wanted to paint it imperial blue, but with it being a pearl colour and me being 16 it was too expensive. Ended up with this colour which is VW Turkis.

Couple of jobs tackled over last few days, refurb’d calipers from SSL fitted by Sean Edwards, along with new SNR bearing rear discs. Thanks goes out to Tom @hopgop1 for the rear calipers. First time I’ve used Sean buy cannot recommend him, Mack and the team enough. Also had new steering rods and ends done at the same time so front end is now fully refreshed.

Then Mot’d for another year, only done 518 miles since last year’s Mot. Sadly, the car is up for sale on Ebay due to the mentioned, just don’t get time to enjoy it.

Really making me miss mine! My turini's were anthracite but also with silver calipers, looked excellent just like yours.

Mk2 Fiesta XR2 that was my first car and owned since I was 16. When rebuilt and painted I preferred the look without body kit fitted and that is what causes a lot of the rust! Done loads to it over the years. Still fitted with 1600 CVH.
I feel happy when I see mates who treat their cars like this (y) agree with the rest of users that you made a really great job, the car looks more than awesome (y)

I will be polishing away remnants of this lovely piece of abstract artwork which was so kindly left on my roof the other evening.... :ROFLMAO:
They must like me really otherwise they've have scratched it in, I'm sure!

Got the Clio out of hibernation recently for the MoT, passed today with no advisories.

Spending some quality time getting to know its stablemate.

Speaking of decals. Anyone know where I could get some small Renault window stickers knocked up? My new windscreen is missing it and I’d like to put one back on to make it match.

This guy on Ebay seems to make replica original stickers, no idea what they're like personally but they look almost identical...

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/14395505...1G0S1B&hash=item218463c8c1:g:ugAAAOSwUp1gMV0S

I can’t find an order or any details but I have this saved in my favourites so assume they were from these


Edit: lies, got them here: https://cliosport.net/threads/slam-...ckers-replicas-for-sale.836472/#post-12051571

How did your sprayed front grille hold up over the years? Thinking of possibly doing that to my OEM one when removed?

Yeah, did it satin black and came up really well. Saves constantly dousing it in trim restorer. I went to town and ended up doing all the plastics.
