A lot of people fit 225's to the Clio. As a more common fitment you get more choice and sometimes better value
Well, today saw an unexpected addition. The other day a spring snapped on me, so the car went into the garage for a service and new spring.
Got a phone call today to say they could get hold of h&r springs for a good price if I wanted... The price compared to one replacement spring fitted meant that I ended up saying yes! They fitted the springs, serviced her and sorted out a bad blow on the exhaust (don't think it was ever fitted quite right). The exhaust now sounds 10x better and she sits at a nice height, very pleased!!!
ive got new black diamonds on the way, have fitted new led number plate lights and am on the hunt for two center caps and a new drivers headlight now! I'm also very very poor haha.
Here's some quick photos, needs a proper clean and wax really!

Car looks great! I'm not a huge fan of the black Clio's, they're usually all swirled up and generally look a bit tatty in my experience but yours is definitely an exception to that!
Cheers! In all honesty, I gave her a good clean and clay yesterday (didn't have time to polish or wax) and the paint is a mess with swirls and light scratches, not sure on the best thing to do!! Any suggestions?
World's smallest update, but new LED number plate lights make a big difference:
Aye that's what I was thinking. How much did yours cost if you don't mind me asking?
looking goodi am sure i have a coupe of spare centre caps if you are still looking?
cheers mate, I am yeah, are they the r27 anthracite colour?
Ahh, was your machine polisher expensive? No idea how much these things cost!!I did it myself

They range in price. A decent DA, £150.
If your not sure what your doing in terms of correction, id suggest practicing on a scrap panel or just lightly polishing/glazing the car first, you will see vast improvements with just a basic glaze (although thats just masking defects, not ridding them). Wouldn't go full out on your pride and joy with heavy cutting pads/polish off the bat.
Cheers, need have a think about investing next month as it needs sorting!
New black badges have arrived, and I've source a couple of center caps and replacement headlight off a couple of guys on here. Debating tinting the fogs yellow whilst I've got the bumper off to change the lights!
Looks totally wicked! Now does the ride match? or will it be harsher?... is this a 30/40 setup?
Coil overs would be cool, but lets be honest, most of us really dont need them.
