    Its ridiculously good. Just a product that does exactly what you want it to do. I drove 10k miles over a year, through all weather, come rain or shine (plenty of gritted roads and snow too) and never had to use anything other than shampoo on my wheels at the weekend when washing. C5's melting...

    Yeah you should blind it mate. 15ml of C5 does 4 x 17" wheels inside and out, and I reckon the surface area of 4 wheels is more than the aero parts you need to do.

    Thanks fellas. In reply to your question @Big Ben and @SeanTheSheep funnily enough, the steering wheel was done by the Renault dealership. I know they subbed it out to a specialist but I can't remember their name. When I first contacted them about the car they said you can't come and test...

    I haven't updated my thread on here for ages..... :relaxed: I still haven't fitted any upgrade sidelights, but the H7's for my Porsche should get delivered tomorrow and they come with some free Philips White Vision 501 bulbs, so I'll stick them in the Clio (as I already have the white vision...

    Tidying up the underside

    I did my Honda CR-Z to a reasonable extent. The rear beams etc were similar to your pic above. I used a wire brush, cup brush on the drill, and a dremel to clean up loose flaky rust etc I didn't grind back completely to bare metal, as this wasn't really required. I used Bilt Hamber Hydrate 80...
