@Carbonraider @Jaff. how did you guys secure the back of he undertray? Did it go under or over the rear beam?

 

[Welsh.Dan]

Ok thanks for the input guys I think I will be going ahead with this as a winter project.

Best tool to cut the bumper? I am thinking plunge circular saw on the long edge, jigsaw on the side bits?

Sounds scary [emoji33]

 

[banther]

also toying with the idea of doing this, but I think i'm about 30yes/70no at the moment...

That boot looks dreadful! Like a clio campus. I wouldnt relocate the number plate.

 

[Jaff.]

I made brackets to bolt to the car then threaded bar to secure the diffuser
And it buys right up to my axle (but diffrent car you may be as lucky)

Bit of advice - buy a spare bumper to try it on first

How will you be managing the exhaust? Hiding it and angling the tips down or trying to plumb it up to the exits on the diffuser?

this is actually the reason I got this ktec one (think I remember mentioning it to @Richy182. when I picked it up). I'm going to chop the pipes in half and extend them to where they are in my photoshop using clamps though not welded so I can move them around a bit.

Do we know who owns this beast?
I have several questions for him, one of which being how he pushed his front wings out

 

[markclio]

 

[The Fatty]

I think he may have just bent the door at some point as its not on both sides...

will stop now..

 

[The Fatty]

@markclio i have seen all these from the links someone posted earlier

 

[markclio]

sorrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyy...

 

[KyleRS]

Do it!
The numberplete on the bumper looks Shan though!

 

[JoeMarano]

I think it would look good. If it actually gave downforce too that would be even better.

Does anyone know why the little slat thing on the rear bumper of standard 172/182's isnt cut out? Instead has that little black plastic covering it?

 

[The Fatty]

this just occurred to me as a potential idea as well if the top strip ends up looking out of place... think this looks very oe!

 

[Jaff.]

The lip on the diffuser should sit nicely with the lip on the bumper.

Are you going to attach it to the bumper or have it removable?

 

[JoeMarano]

Someone come fit one of these to my car IMMEDIATELY! lol

removable. What do you mean by the lip? Im planning to have the bumper on the outside, and this sitting up against it on the inside.

 

[Jaff.]

Won't look as good IMO but it's up to you.

Have you seen pictures of mine? Youl be able to see the lip then

I have seen a few pics , but not one of it completed. Feel free to 'pic' me up

 

[Jaff.]

The lip...

The Making of...

Where it sits under the car...

 

[The Fatty]

thanks @Jaff.

I see what you talking about now. I would like it do be fairly flush or behind though.

 

[Adamm.]

Not a fan personally.

 

[Jaff.]

Fair enough. Just be aware of the lip that's all, also the "droop" in the middle.

It's not as simple as bolting it on unfortunately

At least the pictures give you a better idea of the actual shape of it anyway

yeah I have the splitter here already to go on

 

[Jaff.]

I meant on a bumper lol.

Good luck anyway

I like it on the right car :wink:

 

[levaz]

Love this one!
Want my arches like his

looks like his is about to touch the floor in that pic!

from that pic, looks like he has just spaced out the bottom fixing point as the skirt also bend outwards. agree it looks good though

 

[..Jack..]

Like it

 

[Stevo!]

Not sure about tbh, each to their own though..

Looks good in some pictures but weird in others.

 

[Juhu_United]

I quite like it, would it be possible to have the exhausts in the standard positions on the 182 with the diffuser or is that impossible? It just looks a bit odd seeing a clio with twin rear pipes so far apart

 

[N4TH4N]

The more I look at it, the more i like it now

Dont see why not, you'd want to cover the old exhaust cutouts though.
