Renault Clio 1.2 16v
Hi guys,
New to the forum as I've just bought my first car; a Black 1.2 16v Dymanique
Loving it so far!
I've got some plans for it and was hoping that a little inspiration/comments from the members of CS would help bring it along nicely![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Here's the car as I bought it. Came with a colour coded sport spoiler, 172 Alloys and a black/silver interior with the sport dials too I believe.

I already had a new car stereo at home; a Kenwood KDC-BT41U so I first wanted to get that installed. Pretty good little stereo to be honest!

I left the car at this stage for quite some time; was too busy enjoying driving it to do anything else! But then the classic 'Clio won't start/engine cutting out' issue occured. So while the car was at the garage it gave me a chance to develop the style I'm going for. A black, white and blue colour scheme
So with that in mind, I turned the garage into a spray shop. I wanted to spray the front diamond, bullets, speaker covers and interior dash trim/gear insert white.

2 weeks later I finally picked the car back up
I'd collected a few CS Stickers and the badges/trim etc were ready to go on the car. I also got myself an RS Grille for Christmas which really makes a difference to the look of the front!

At some point soon I'll spray the rear diamond and 'Clio' badge white too
I'm also planning to colour code my side strips to give a more sleek look. The newest addition to the car is a 172 rear bumper that I picked up for a decent £90; spent this morning fitting it
Wasn't quite the 15min job I expected... Overtightened rusted bolts are hell... One needed sawing off!

Dead happy with the improvement this bumper makes! The old one was in a naff condition too. I've also made some smaller modifications, white headlights/sidelights etc.
Eventually I'm going to get my alloys refurbed and sprayed white with a blue centre diamond and outer lip. Some other possible mods include;
Pressed Plates
Lowering (Advice on how much would be appreciated)
Sport Side Skirts (Too much?)
Colour Coded Side Strips
Other Interior/Exterior Trim Pieces to be Sprayed White
New Speakers (Make and Model Undecided)
Any other ideas/suggestions would be appreciated![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
