Breakers yard, doesn't matter if its scratched cause you'll be getting it re sprayed for a colour match

 

[Sammccrudden]

Clios bak on the road yeah buddy now all I need is someone selling some 90mm or more lowering springs

 

[Cw Tuning.]

seems like everyone is having a knock lately! i had an incident in the fog the other night..track rod,wishbone, arb, droplinks, smashed front bumper and a dead alloy

 

[Spinksy]

What are the plans for the car now mate? And there are a set of 90mm springs in bits for sale that got put on this morning!!

 

[Sammccrudden]

Really that's sweet man ill check them out now and Cw tuning sorry to hear that pal

 

[Sammccrudden]

And spinksy I don't know what else I'm thinking a 172 rear bumper and them I'm not to sure what else any ideas ?

 

[Spinksy]

And spinksy I don't know what else I'm thinking a 172 rear bumper and them I'm not to sure what else any ideas ?

you got a pic of how the car looks atm?

it would be easier to suggest from that but xenons maybe?

 

[Sammccrudden]

Yeah ill put some pics up just sorted out a 182 rear bumper good condition for 35 can't go wrong really

 

[DanEdser]

182 rear?

so your gonna need a 182 lookalike exhaust?

otherwise youll have two cutouts with no exhaust!

 

[Billy.]

I saw that 182 bumper up for sale, looked in good nick. What you gonna do about the double exhaust cut outs though?

 

[Sammccrudden]

I'm not to sure what would you sujjest ? I'm a bit puzzled on what to do :/

 

[DanEdser]

182 lookalike exhaust tbh.

no other way around it that selling it and getting a 172 bumper tbh

plus wouldnt it be black gold not pearl black as its a 182?

 

[Sammccrudden]

Yeah that's what it is but tbh it isn't that different do you reckon I should get it then or just get mine colour coded and stick my scorpion system on it ?

yeah would be black gold but he did say his dad works at a body shop iirc

Yeah that's what it is but tbh it isn't that different do you reckon I should get it then or just get mine colour coded and stick my scorpion system on it ?

what does your scorpion system look like sam?

 

[Sammccrudden]

I'm having it of a mate he's got it on a polo ill get you a picture of it two seconds

 

[Sammccrudden]

I can't find a picture of it but its an ovel back box if you get what I mean

 

[Spinksy]

I'm having it of a mate he's got it on a polo ill get you a picture of it two seconds

no worries mate, slam a pic up when you get one and im guessing it isnt like the 182 exhaust then? if not wait until you can get a 172 rear bumper as that would be the easiest option

 

[Sammccrudden]

 

[Sammccrudden]

There we go got some pics for you pal

 

[Tomas]

Is the recess smoothed?

 

[Sammccrudden]

No not yet debating 172 bumpers not sure what else to do tho

 

[Tomas]

Aye sport replica would look good, you'd need spacers though.

 

[Sammccrudden]

Spacers for ?

 

[Spinksy]

He means spacers for the wheels sam, so that the larger front wings/arches don't hide the wheels away

 

[Sammccrudden]

I've got 5mm on the front anyways e how much is needed ?

 

[Spinksy]

I've got 5mm on the front anyways e how much is needed ?

For me ideal stance is to have the wheels flush with the arches or a little bit of poke...

But read your for sale thread... What's the story in balamory mate?

 

[Sammccrudden]

Well I need the money for other things so I need the wheels gone ASAP I don't suppose you know anyone who wants a set do you I need to get a family car etc but I wanna keep the Clio and replace the wheels at a later date

[Sammccrudden]
