Clio Meg RS320bhp conversion (update Meg Rad)

[Fernandez]

Is the Carbon Bonnet a lot lighter that the Aluminium one on an R27? Or not much different?

Won't be much difference, tailgate and roof is where you'd make real savings but you may aswell start with ditching the interior first.

Some better pics. Really love bonnet (a bit R27R). Might go the whole way with stripped out rear seats and cage(?) Will fit decals in the week hopefully before FCS. Think gonna go with dark grey, want the pattern to be 'ghosted' onto bonnet.

Looks great :thumbup: but not helping me save money.

I do like it, took me a while to like mine on my old 172 rep,

Though i do think that there is too much going on at the front, like the splittler the graphics and the carbon bonnet, put the graphics on and im sure it will look EPIC!

That is lovely <3

Pic with decals. We used a clear decal which means you can still see the carbon through it and some angles the decals merges into the bonnet so less obvious. Hard to see in the photograph but here's a couple.

Gonna focus for now on sorting out the handling and stopping. Just need to decide which way to go...

 

[henderson]

not usually a fan of CF bonnets but that looks great,really suits your car

 

[Richy200]

Love the bonnet decals

For stopping id say braided lines, fresh fluid and ds2500 pads up front along with a good caliper service. Transformed the car doing that in terms of stopping

Cheers...Would you consider the Godspeed or ktec 330mm upgrade or is the money better spent elsewhere, like towards KW's?

Lovely!
Litchy im hoping to sort a group buy for the pf 330mm brake kit.
Best brakes ive had on the Clio & ive tried all set ups

 

[Richy200]

I have standard size 2-piece discs very nice but not needed. i wouldn't wrorry about the 330mm discs unless your.going to track day it hard.for like 30/40 minute stints and.don't know how to use the brakes properly. I'd put th money towards v3's or similar.

Sounds good. How do they compare to ktecs set up, which is 200 quid more expensive

If you can get them for the right price then yes. I have adjusted mine a few times to get a good setting as when fitted the company put them to kw's recommended setting and then ive fiddled with them and put them to what people have said on here and you notice the difference between a few clicks!
