Why spend money on a car when your never going to make it back!!!
Your cars for... what... 4 k

Your spending like £1500 on it and at the end of the day its still gunna be worth 4k

save ya money and get a better motor!!!!!!

If your happy with the fact that you aren't really gonna get much more performance out of it and you know you will be keeping it for a while then i think spending the money on some well thought out mods is a good way to go.

Coilovers, cup spoiler, 172 wheels or turini's, then go for the body bits like RS bumpers etc...IMO.
I've always been a fan of keeping to official manufacturer parts myself.

 

[Laura]

change my wheels no how dare you lol

fully aware im throwing money away cant afford to insure a fast car only 19 and have written 1 car off.

 

[Middo]

coilovers > light tints > side skirts.

dont bother with cup spoiler imo

 

[fUbAr]

clear side repeaters
172 front bumper
skirts
private reg plate
finished.

 

[Laura]

was goin gettin a 172 bumper but i dont want the skirts so i sold it

 

[Steve2004]

You can't afford a faster car... but you can afford to spend £££ on mods which you'll never get your money back for, and can then afford to declare these mods?

 

[chris509]

i like you're wheels! coilovers first, they would make the biggest diference imo

I agree just save your money for a 172.

 

[Laura]

i dont want a faster car.... its not about speed for everyone, i sit in traffic all day. i like my 1.2

im fully insured all mods declaired thankyou very much

All show no go then

 

[Laura]

pretty much lol , plus my clio isnt my only car lol

got a 205 gti too, even tho its not on the rd atm

 

[Justin]

coilovers! and maybe a smart number plate?

 

[Neil G]

Definately suspension....you'll really notice where the money has gone

 

[Laura]

beleve it or not its already lowered 60mm lol

 

[chris509]

i dont get why everyone has a go at people that mod the 1.2, saying things like waste of money, sick of reading it on every thread with someone that wants to do anything to their car!! the same thing can be said to people that mod the 172/182s, why not just buy something faster instead? some people are happy with what they have! sorry, its been bugging me for a while lol.

 

[tommyboy]

coilies an tints, maybe side skirts

looks mint as it is.

 

[Middo]

coilovers first defo, not only for look but for the drive of the thing as well. List of mods looks good though :approve:

Also dont get why modding a lower engined car is so bad. Some people have to do long commutes and sit in traffic (like taylor does) so wouldnt make sense to get a petrol guzzler. Personally I think when her cars fully lowered it'll look just as good if not better than a 172 so why not.

Silly comment really as he can easily take them off when it comes to selling and make most the money he spent back as all the parts are highly sought after!! Plus, we are on this website because we love cars, everyone likes spending money on them, we dont hope to make the money back, but we just like seeing our cars in all there glory and just how we like them!!

Ps plans sound good mate!!

 

[Laura]

she lol

 

[Clio_Sport]

she sorry!! lol

but i agree with what was said by middo and on the last page!! at the end of the day, if you wanna mod it, mod it!! dont listen to people who say save ya money and get a 172!!

 

[chris509]

hear hear!! glad there are some sane people on here that agree!! lol, just because its a little engine doesnt mean it has to look poor or handle like a jelly on wheels!!

 

[Laura]

aye i dont really want a fast car i think my 1.2 is fine, cheap to run, tax and insure ish, looks nice . as said all show no go but that doesnt bother me

 

[terribleclio]

to be fair i'd rather have my 1.2 to handle like a go kart and be able to have fun then just spending money on a faster car....where can you use the speed in this country now days? coilies i rekon.

 

[RacerStu]

Looks low enough already I would get some 172 look skirts and a cup spoiler would look quality.

 

[GUNN]

sorry to hghjack ya thread mate, my clio understeers so badly, would lowering it help this?

 

[Middo]

^ probably better of having it checked at a garage/tyre pressures/tracking before id lower it

 

[ollie]

coilies and light tints

 

[Scott]

the same thing can be said to people that mod the 172/182s, why not just buy something faster instead?

Don't be so stupid, there's nothing faster than a 172/182

I'd get the side strips smoothed out if i were you taylor, smooth the front bumper like Middo's old one, then slam the mofo.

 

[thecremeegg]

two cars at 19? jeez lol

 

[Laura]

3 cars lol, had4 at one point

[Laura]

[TheJesus]

2.0 badges next Taylor

Mine are the FK Silverline's whatever they are and I dont know if I really like them or not... thinking of getting some Leda's instead tbh... I'll actually wanting to make mine higher
