He means where the body kit meets the body, there's a step like on the vees

Ah, sorry, from the pic you posted it looked like you were on about where the wing met the bumper.

​my bad

ahh, no, i looked into the arches when they went on as i thought they were smoothed, was only after i'd checked 4-5 different kits that i realised that they were all stepped.

Hadn't noticed the bumper

Looks awesome dude but the wheels just don't do it for me.
Set of clio v6 wheels in gold would look better I think.

Re: SUPER 1600 REPLICA based on 172, CLIO WILLIAMS Tribute, CLIO WILLIAMS IV (Austra

Is it just me, but wouldn't the side strips on doors look better if they were removed and smoothed out

Yea maybe will be better like the V6 but this is tribute/replica so no alterations except for colors or badge

This project is stunning and the reate of progress is just astonishing considering you seem to be doing it in your spare time.
Hard to believe little over a month ago it was a standard flame red 172.

I know out not wanting to mod it (so to speak) but are you/would you keep the RS grill?

Good question... I'm undecided, because is true that is the S1600 Replica but is also a 2liters Williams IV (imaginary model) and the F2000 rally car still have the RS grill..
Probably i'll keep it just because i'm working with the bumper and i'll cover the hole for radiator with the original RS lower grill which has the same squared style... Mhhhh... :?

Keep the RS grille, the normal ones look really cheap.
