    Aftermarket Exhaust Question..

    Hey, delayed response from me.. I went for the scorpion resonated in the end, and kept the cat, I'm really happy with it, still pops and burbles on overrun, and sounds pretty awesome when you open it up, but quiet enough to forget it's there when poodling around or sat steady on dual...

    My deep black 197.. and a little product plug!

    Cheers mate, very happy with it, personally think the projectors have really freshened up the front end and the cup spoiler completes the rear! Many more boxes to tick yet but she's getting there :)

    My deep black 197.. and a little product plug!

    Been patiently waiting and checking every day last few weeks haha As luck would have it, as soon as I started looking I saw two posts of sets that had just sold and both at a decent price - nothing since! Thanks, that's good to know, I wasn't aware I'd even need them, this is probably a stupid...

    197 projector headlights...

    Anywhere that sells bulbs generally will tell you, you can usually put your registration in, select which bulb it is you need i.e. Dip / main and it'll tell you what fitment it is - (unless you've changed standard headlights to xenon or HID obv) that's all I did when I ordered from...

    Haha cheers! I have just picked this up to address the naked looking rear end situation.. So now it's really just down to the controversial great debate.. Original or carbon/black badges :confused:

    My deep black 197.. and a little product plug!

    Cheers! Yeah it is hard to tell to be fair, I should have really taken some pics before showing how noticeable they were, but honestly such a massive improvement, if you have any little chips I'd highly recommend, I'm £40 lighter for buying it, but thankfully happy with the results, the process...

    @Sean197 @sevenfourate Can this be moved into projects/progress please so I can add to it later rather than starting new threads along the way? Thanks

    197 projector headlights...

    Can anyone help with this, someone on another thread mentioned needing to use the headlight height motors from standard lights, I have bought used valeos, am I right in thinking these already have everything including the motor as standard meaning they are the same and so I will not need to swap...

    197 projector headlights...

    Haha agreed, I can't wait to get them on.. and should have a cup spoiler soon so that'll be going on before long.. ploughing through my 'to do' list :smirk: Just de tango'd the rears too, love the difference little details make!

    197 projector headlights...

    I love how they look on that, hoping it suits mine better than the reflectors in black! I managed to pick up some genuine Valeo / Renault ones, so I will de tango them and replace all the other bulbs prior to fitting as I know it's a bumper off job, and that'll be coming off to get sprayed to...

    Cliosport Festival 2017

    Yeah he said they were looking to get it to 400bhp, I thought he was crazy, never imagined it possible to put that amount of power down in a fwd hatchback, then I went in it... and it blew my mind, I actually kept forgetting I was still sat in a Clio lol
