"Cheryls" Progress Thread. Updated 18/06/2010

[actionpacked]

Having had my car for a while now, I thought it was about time I uploaded a progress thread.

I have quite a lot planned for "Cheryl", however this will be over quite a long time as I am constantly skint.

Hope you enjoy:


This was pretty much first day I got her, miserable December day as you can tell!
















First mod, obviously had to be the clio197.net stickers. Thanks jase :jase:







Secondly, I removed and changed the indicator bulbs all round to chrome:

Before...




After...




Before...




After...





Same day I also received my new ITG panel so that went straight in anic: :




Next it was time to change my aerial to a shorter 'bee sting' style. Since doing this I have greatly decreased my radio signal, but luckily I dont really listen to it anyway!:




Now I know there might be very mixed opinions on these, but I thought :swear: it, ill see what I think:













Finally just a couple of general shots for you to look over:







Like I said earlier I have still got a lot I would like to do to her, but this is a start. After all it is a progress thread :clap:

Hope you like her ;/ Let me know what you think.

Thanks

looking good so far mate,

i like the bumper decals where did you get them from ? altho i do think the rear one could do with being a bit bigger.

other than that very nice.

Haha, warning noted mike!

I should be able to let you know if I'm coming pretty soon.

Mike can you just pm me your meeting travel arrangements please. I realise it's probably in the ring thread but just want to make sure I had the most up to date information for booking ferrys/hotels etc..

Thanks

A few new snaps. 6th May

Waiting for me this morning was a nice parcel containing my new wind deflectors! So I had them straight on.






I must also apologise for this next one. I stole this idea from Paul... Also how dirty is that mirror :swear:




Finally just a couple of shots I took when out, apologies for the quality...

 

[actionpacked]

Oh I nearly forgot I had these its been so long...

Here are a few photo's from the meet we had a few weeks back

Enjoy :jase2: !

 

[Ed...]

some good pictures. love the car mate and the plate looks hot

 

[Jon_B_08]

I likey alot! cant wait to get mine as gleaming

I have just posted a quick poll to hope to receive a few opinions on the two rear spoilers. I truely am split down the middle!

I think the cup spoiler looks good on the White 197's, I also think it would suit the front splitter I am hoping to get. However I do like the smaller more subtle lip spoiler that a lot of people have fitted!

Help please lol anic:

 

[Jon_B_08]

If it was me, id go for the cup spoiler matey!
Im gonna be gettin one for mine as soon as I have the notes
