It's funny, I've only been on the forum about 5 times in 2016 but I'm getting back into it again now and I'd not seen you for ages and then saw you going through new cross traffic lights over xmas Was glad to see you still had he Clio.

It's lighter now though :excited: I cut all the innards out of it, just a skin on a frame now, need to fit some 6mm bar to tie the hinges together.

I fitted projector lights to my cup and they were a direct swap. I have blanks fitted were the fog lights go but the wiring was still there so I fed those wires to a cheap HID kit and fitted the bulbs in the cornering light holes. Now when i'm blatting down country lanes I can turn my front...

I watch mighty car mods, done some cool stuff on there. B is for build I like and when they do a video ' bad obsession' motorsport. they've been build a mini longer than I've been at my clio lol

Looks like a good idea, you could probably have a thin sheet of red on the bottom then a thicker black sheet on top with the shapes cut out.

Nice work on the blanks, are you planning on selling those?

I ordered one yesterday, I'd found a company in France (AC Sport I think) who did a blank one about 91 euros delivered but I like the one you have with the holes for heater and hazard switch so took the plunge. looks good in yours. cheers.

Sorry I seem to have lost a lot of my pics on old computer.

From Renault they are around £270 each + vat, well the o/s one is. If you fancy a pair of second hand ones I have the rear half of a 197 shell in my garage, quarters are good. I was going to cut one off myself but never found the time, I think if your patient with a drill and time, it's do able.

All the panels (if three door) are the same and the slam panel, lights etc will all be of use but the rear beam is different, i think it's shorter or will give you a shorter wheelbase. I had a front subframe from a 1.2 and iirc it was not quite right for the job, I think the part number for the...

How much was the splitter if you don't mind me asking?

I know it would not be the same thing but do you think if someone made that bodykit they'd be on to a winner?

These are. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-PIECE-SOCKET-STAND-TRAY-RACK-STORAGE-RAIL-HOLDER-1-2-3-8-1-4-SOCKETS-NEW-/391166731903?hash=item5b135aa67f:g:9JkAAOSwNSxVdc0D

I bought these just before xmas (my 2nd set) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331923702260?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT They've gone up in price but plenty on there cheaper.

If you have enough height in your toolbox (about 75mm) you can get a 3 piece kit from ebay for less than a tenner, it lets the sockets stand up and has markings on the end for sizes.

WOW!! Didn't spot this was an old thread, when I saw the price of the R27 I thought I was dreaming lol

About 2 months ago I found a bargain of a door in mint condition for £35 on eBay, was about 55 miles away so I fitted my roof bars and had a trip out, came back missing out the motorway so as not to travel too fast. I also collected the tailgate this way from Bradford, quite a versatile...

Let the stripping commence. Quarter was painted beforehand. Nearly ready. Trail fitting On and ready for tea time, about half five and a productive day.

These are the only pics for now. New panel from Renault. Car in the bodyshop around 10am. It would have needed a few tubs of filler.

Good news, well for me at least. I've moved forward now and progress is being made. After two job changes, the second one for the better I now find myself with spare cash and spare time to work on my dream car, might not be other peoples dream car but I'm not building it for them lol. I'm...
