White 1.2 MK3 Dynamique Tom Tom

[david0402]

So i picked my car up friday, haven't been to a computer yet to upload any pictures.
Looks like there are a couple of mods to my car.
The Black alloys
Black spoiler
Black fog light surrounds.
i asked the garage to Paint to mirrors black but looks like its about all.
Im wanting to do a fair bit to my car except i need to wait for the manufactures warranty to run out.

Sorry about the size of the pictures, i have no idea what im doing haha.

A few Mods i plan to do:
Lower
tinted windows
black or white bullets not silver
black or white where its silver at the front.
Upgrade bulbs ( any help? except the silvervisions i have already brought)
footwell LED's
New head unit( not sure as i dont want to loose the built in tom tom and bluetooth phone)
New speakers and sub.
Smaller Arial or shark fin
I'd like to make the car sound a bit nicer but not sure what this involves as i don't want to put a stupid exhaust on the car.

Any Comments/Suggestions?

Cheers Dave

Alright pal car looking nice. Welcome to the non sport club haha

Looks nice that. Definitely needs lowering so good thing you've got that planned!

Bulbs, I went with Halfords own super bright ones, but then I have a trade card. Usually on offer though for BOGOF.

If the bullets are silver and have renault sport on them, swap them for some plain ones. Be criminal to spray them otherwise!

 

[david0402]

Cheers, the bullets are just a plain silver.
Also thinking about Debadging the "clio" and changing the diamonds front and back to black

Car looks nice mate! Def needs lowered, these mk3s have a rotten arch gap. Plans sound good though mate Subscribed...

Nice to see another mk3! If you want it to sound nicer get a aftermarket air filter,I have one on my 1.2 and I love the sound it gives. Here's my project thread if you need some ideas mate

[david0402]

Should put coil overs at the top of your list mines only been lowered 40mm and it looks so much better

Looks nice, I think simple is best, black the badges, debadge the 'CLIO', tint rear lights maybe, shark fin and lower.

 

[david0402]

Yesterday i received team heko's in the post and silver visions for front and back. I've just ordered primer paint and lacquer on next day delivery to paint the diamonds black this weekend. Might debadge the 'Clio' Badge also. May see what its like painted black.
I have 2 Speakers, Sub and amp at home, looking to get 2 new speakers for the fronts and 2 tweeters for the dash, are the tweeters something to do with Component speakers or not? I fitted the speakers and sub to my old car by myself, but was looking for a slightly more professional job this time. Is this something halfords would do, just as i can't find any auto electrical places locally.

 

[Moffx]

Noooooo!! Halfords couldn't professionally tie their shoes! You'd be better doing it yourself or traveling a bit to find somewhere that will do it properly.

 

[david0402]

Alright Cheers bud

 

[david0402]

What are people opinions on spraying the diamonds black?

Use plasti dip mate,can peel it off if you don't like it

 

[Emblem]

As said, good to see yet another MK3 on here...

Have a look on my thread, mines been lowered 40mm or so.... Thanks Craig

Sorry about the size of the images i don't know how to change that.
This weekend i've debadged the clio and added Silver Visions to front and back.
I have team heko's at home so ill put them on this week, and hopefully i'll paint the diamonds this week or on the weekend now.
not sure what else to do just yet

 

[bennettxo]

couldnt inbox you back mate gave this error message :

[david0402]

I've added the team Heko's now, and hopefully a can of plastidip and glossifier should come in the next few days. What would people think of black handles?
just saving to have windows tinted and the car lowered now i think

 

[david0402]

Plasti-dipped and glossed the badges and the bullets.
Managed to just un-clip them all, Have got the front badge and the bullets back on now, but cant seem to clip the back diamond on.
Does anybody know how to go about this?
Heres how they look anyway.

 

[bennettxo]

Looks good mate!

 

[david0402]

Cheers haha, only one or two bits which dont look great but im pretty happy with my first time picking up a can of paint haha.

 

[david0402]

Haven't done much to my car or posted much about it due to me having a crash a few weeks ago.
I have had a whole load of replacement parts all of which i know little about, have had struts, springs, 4 new alloys, breaks and pads to the front and im sure other stuff.
I need to get out of this money struggle now then as quick as i can lower it and get the windows tinted, lowering needs to be done even more now the front looks so high! ridiculous arch gap!

Sorry to hear about the crash mate! Much damage to you and the car?

 

[david0402]

Not so much to me, sore neck for a bit nut not so bad now. Quite abit to the car yeah, that garage estimated it as £4000 worth of damage but was all repaired on the insurance.
