So I've had the car a while now, thought I'd put some pictures together.
Don't really want to go mad modifying the car, but I'd like to do a few subtle things.
Bit of a background, this is my old car....

Then I cocked up and did a dirty downshift on the motorway.... and did this.....

So then I changed the engine, sold it on and bought my Clio. Bought it from Martins in Basingstoke, as they made a real effort to find a car for me to test drive (when I was thinking of new cars) and made buying the used car a pleasure, not like other dealers who just care about the finance.
This is her on the day I said yes!

So she had a polish up, and took a few pictures

Then I fitted a Cup Spoiler, which I think makes it look so much better!

Then I had to buy a stubby aerial!

Then I also bought some Exhaust tips, Silvatec bulbs, RS Steering wheel insert and just yesterday I upgraded to LED lights. Contemplating de-silencing the exhaust, but still not sure about it.

I'm not interested in lowering it - I think it looks good as it is, and handles really well, so I'm not worried about screwing around with the geometry just for looks.
I also picked up a Megane footrest and carpet mat retainer clips today from Karl (thanks!) but haven't fitted the footrest yet so don't have anything to show you, but the mat clips work a treat - why didn't the mats come with these clips?!
Thanks to the forum for tips and advice - I just wish that I was better at taking photo's of black cars!!
