    Here it is!!! 1.2 / 172 rep wanna be!!!

    Tbh the alloys only cost me £50 with 6mm tyres so I refurbed them and they look sweet. I'm not bothered about the xenons. If some come up I'll grab them. If nowlt it's not a big deal but thanks for looking [emoji106]

    Door bullet modifying?

    Mate I done the exact same with my bullet. I painted them the same colour as my wheels then painted the lettering by hand with a small brush with the caliper paint that I used. All they need is a heavy coat of lacquer now.

    Clio Rush 1.2 8V 2005 5dr (None Sport)

    I went and bought some 1500, 2000 and 2500 grit wet and dry because the small little ones you get the pack are shite. I went over mine with a halfords basic compound first two times then with the one provided two times aswell. Come out awesome. I just need to buy some sealant for it now.

    Bodywork Repair

    I use to work for a main dealer in Romford and when motablilty cars are at the end of their three year lease they usually come back battered. They only thing that motability can do is not pay them a potential £100 congratulations for not f**king the car up. Either way this will get repaired by a...

    1.2 is getting there.

    50 Well its a 172 rep / whatever I like lol. The alloys were a cheap steal. £50 off gumtree. All they needed was a refurb and there they are. The bullets were fiddley to do but they will look even more awesome with a decent coat of lacquer on it. No interior mods as of yet I wanna get the...

    1.2 is getting there.

    Im putting the 172 body kit on it with those refurbed 17s. Tbh all I'm doing is cheap small mods just to make it look good. We'll in my opinion good. The body kit is being sprayed and the whole body is being painted with a fresh coat of colour and lacquer whilst I'm on holiday to revive the...

    Ignition keys! Are there any alternatives?

    yeah I know it's cheap but Peugeot are cheaper and they have better keys lol. that shouldn't be an excuse for renaults lack of design. I doesn't really matter I was just wondering if there was any MOD's.

    Ignition keys! Are there any alternatives?

    Right lads, I'm posting this as I had a thought.... Pretty pointless thought but nether the less may prove to be informative. Are there any ignition key/key fob alternatives? Any mods done? I only ask this as the original key is pretty bland and boring! I've see it done on other cars keys...

    My First Car (1.2 MK2)

    Mate that front grill looks dope. I want one lol... I'm sure you'll figure out what wheels to put on it. just a friendly bit of advice 15" are standard size for a 1.2. 16" are standard size for the 172/182/197. and 17" are probably the absolute biggest size you can put on without the wheels...

    1.2/172 Replica

    Today I dusted the tools off, removed the standard wings, arch liners and front bumper to line up the 172 wings and front bumper. I also marked up where to put the brackets for the side skirts. I thought they would be harder to fit but tbh it was quite easy. ATM the brackets are only held on...
