Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

The Lenso wheels look pretty good but not keen on the steels/whitewalls or the idea of having a mixed set unless you were going for a drag setup.

Good to see you took the majority of stickers off too...

Looks good. Get that front recess smoothed over though! Could even get the black bit smoothed and textured for the OEM look ;)

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Right just got back from Freds, all cambered up now and a lil bit lower.

Got 2 degrees of camber on the rear, clears the arches now lol...so went a bit lower so it still scrapes lol :eek: Just need to drop the front a wee bit now.

Also took white walls off this morning, took flipping ages lol, scrubbing them off for about an hour lol.

And decided to leave center caps off for a bit cos i think they look better without lol.

Will get pics up later if i can

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Ha don't worry about it! You may have done, probably mine if it was filthy, however mainly look out for the skirt whilst on the parade, so probably didn't notice you :D

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Just uploading pics to photobucket now, taking ageeees tho :dapprove:

Had a bit of an issue today however :eek:...... basically i lowered it even more on the rears the other day, thinking that the camber would mean it wouldnt scrape on the arches...wrong lol! Found another bracket that its scraping on now, and its absolutley destroyed the rear tyres! So had to just whip them off tonight....looks so narrow! :dapprove:

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Just bought some brand new tyres for the compos, and tbh id let them go for £300, to get back what i payed for them....as long as its enough to import some of these lol

Only slight problem with these is that the offset on ALL of them is 0....so i dont think theyd fit lol :eek:

Another Dutty? lol

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Been busy spraying a few lil bits over the weekend :) Most of it came out alright, but i cant get a lil bit of masking tape off the rear diamond lol!!

Also introduced Mr Hammer to Mr Arch so i could put the 20mm spacers back on lol. Dosnt scrape or rub at all now!! ....apart from over big speedbumps and round cambered corners lol :cool:

Just going to polish her up now so will get some pics if i can

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Hate to be a downer but have you checked with insurers about cage? A lot of normal insurers wont insure cars with cages.

Re: My own style Clio...finally thread up lol

Its only a half/show cage anyways.
