1.2 Clio Dynamique - Code Name Cleveland (By our lass)



  Tango'd PB 1.2 16V
Well, i've been a member on here since april, and i thought it was about time to get a project thread going.
Got some great ideas and inspiration from everyone on here.

Anyway, i used to have another clio, but a V reg mk2 ph1, but some dizzy cow drove into me near Meadowhall... Ugh. And wouldn't admit liability. (i could have nutted her.)
The remnants of my pride and joy. :dapprove:

She's off to the scrapyard in the sky this week i think.
M3 style mirrors/ph1 rear lights for sale. ;)
£25 £20
+ about 8 postage i think.

Onto bigger and better things.
Next clio - a black mk2 ph2 1.2. 16V '03 plate Dynamique for a modest price of £1450 with a decent mileage of around 42000.
(Biiiig amount of 2's in there. ha.)

Halfrauds wiper blades (quite possible the most disgusting thing i've ever seen) :dead:2010-07-19 17.36.27.jpg
Lowered on god knows what,
2010-07-19 18.12.38.jpg
3 alloys and a steelie...,
very decent sound system in though, i'll give them that. :rasp:

Had it about 2 days before most of the crap came off...
Sourced a pair of standard headlights from scrap, for a decent £25 sheets. (Some folk are wanting £35 each on eBay.):nono:
2010-07-27 15.10.32.jpg
Flat wipers went on. (Actually they went on as soon as i got it home.) :cool:
I think i may burn the others.
2010-07-23 20.41.46.jpg
Got rid of my designer arial. ;) Just a bee sting on off eBay. About £3 probably?
2010-07-23 20.41.12.jpg

Then i did the sound system the other day, which i've not took pictures of yet, but i swapped the front door speakers over, as my old ones were 180W compared to the 105w JBL ones s/he put in before.
Left the rear ones put for now, whilst i get some more FLI ones for the back,
Spliced the wire for the back speakers onto the wire for the 6x9's.
and fitted a Sony GT530UI headunit to run it all off. Cheeky cheeky.

Unsure what to do with that bloody iPod wire. :mad:

So thats where i am at the minute.

Future plans -
New Hazard switch.
1*2 rear bumper.
Sport grill
Possibly a front one too?
New front headlights, cause these are buggered up at the top. (someones been wiping them with a brillo pad.)
Colour code strips/handles/most other things.
Put the sport alloys back on, after ive got new tyres and had them refurbed.
Clean the interior up abit, in terms of dash strips/wires/other crap.
De-wiper rear.
Tint rear 3 windows.
Clio Sport interior.
Paint brake drums/diamonds+bullets
+
Any more that get added to the list.

Cheers for reading + any help/feedback would be nice.

Why do people insist on putting lexus lights on cars. They are cheap and nasty.

Hope you get everything done on the list. A few bits on there that I'm in the progress of getting done.

Is there no connection at the back for an aux wire or something?
 
  Tango'd PB 1.2 16V
They are.
It pains me to say i've had them on the car.

Cheers pal, how's yours coming on?
You got a project thread?
Nah, theres just a aux wire connection on the front, under the iPod wire.
I thought about filing a small hole next to it, on the centre console, and threading the wire through there, but then there's still the wire hanging out...
 
  1.2 Dynamique 16v
Yeah I have one mate. So far I've lowered it using eibach springs, put some 182 anthracite alloys on, installed a pioneer DEH-6100BT headunit. & tomorrow I'm getting a 172 rear bumper sprayed and replacing the front which has been previously damaged. Should look good I hope!

Next on the list: RS grille, colour code mouldings, stubby aerial, flat wiper blades. Theres more but got my eyes on getting those bits done first.

Filing a hole could be messy lol why not just buy a USB stick and put that in?
 
  Tango'd PB 1.2 16V
I'll have a search in a minute.
Sounds good mate, i wasn't too keen on the 182 alloys when i first started, but they're growing on me now. I think i'll stick with the 172's though.
Main thing i'm after is a rear bumper at the minute. They look so much better.
Stubby aerials and flat wiper blades are next to nothing off eBay.
I've got one! haha, it just takes so much more time to read it and then doesn't load all the songs. 16gb aswell!
I prefer using the iPod cause everythings in playlists and easy to find.
 
  1.2 Dynamique 16v
Other one is buy a iTrip if you can't sort the route out?

I was going to go for the 172's also mate. But these 182's went up for sale - travelled to Aycliffe Newton from mine to collect. A good 5 hour round trip lol.

I'll look for those on eBay but I think the grille is next on the list tbh though.
 
  Tango'd PB 1.2 16V
Touché. Could be a winner that mate. ;)
Aycliffe? Isn't that like durham way? haha.
Bet you spent so much on petrol!
I went to Stoke for mine, very respectable £80.
Theres a grill on now, for about £45.
 
  1.2 Dynamique 16v
Yeah mate. It was a serious drive!!

£80 for 172's? If I'm reading that right, that is better than respectable! aha

I think a brand new Grille is £50ish from Renault! Im sure I saw one on here the other day for £30 but think it got snipered before I had chance.
 
  More poke than viagr
Good job taking all the crap off, looks so much better.

How low is it mate? From that pic it looks like a pretty serious drop lol. Respect :cool: lol
 
  Tango'd PB 1.2 16V
Thats good. Where from? I got a quote out of curiosity and it came back over 200!
Bolsover Tyres pal. I live in Bolsover, and its not far from me. Thats all mine was, a quote out of curiosity, then he said £140. Rate impressed with it, considering thats labour costs/materials/time whatever else.
I'd like to see some finished product first though...

Cheers matey, got some stickers to go on yet, but nothing major. Yours looks awesome with all them stickers on. I've not got anywhere near that much though. ;)
If i'm honest, i think its 60mm. But i've not had chance to have a proper look yet.
I'll find out when i change the wheels i suppose.
Keeps catching on the curb though, when i park. :evil:
 
  Tango'd PB 1.2 16V
Colour coded strips and bumper plastic today.
Didn't do the rear bumper, cause i've not got a sport one yet.
Gonna do the Badges+Callipers+random bits orange, unsure which yet.
I wanted Ford Electric Orange, but spray for thats like £23 for a 300ml tin.
Meh, any ideas?
