Me too :tongue_smilie::lol:

Nothin like a bit of confidence in your photography! :thumbup:

I just think the image is a great way to show the R27 brand.

Thx 8) the only thing that bothers me is the reflex of our house in the bonnet didn't have my polarisation filter with me :glare:

How will you put it away? I bought myself autosocks so I can take it out for a spin during winter every week or two but if there'll be too much snow then it'll stay in the garage.

Did a bit pre-work on it if it'll stay in the garage for a long period. Fuel to max, inflated the tyres to 2.9bar (won't be on axle stands) and cleaned it + wax. Think there is no need for anything else cause the car is brand new almost :blink:

pretty much the same mate, spent 2 days this week cleaning clay,wax, polish, interior, engine bay cleaned etc etc. just need to get the wheels off for a good clean and the brakes tbh. our winters aint as bad as yours so hopefully it will come out every 2 weeks for half hour to keep things topped up ok. ( the misses thinks im mad, its only a car she say,s ) lol. 8)

 

[Ozi]

Hehe :biggrin: it's good to run the car from time to time 2-3x a month unless you're gonna change the oil after the "winter-sleep" before starting it :biggrin:

 

[Ozi]

Finally got this thing out.



****ed my hand up doing it lol


All clips are still on. A tip for everyone wanting to do this. Heat the plastic up so when you bend it to get the sign out you won't brake the clips - worked like a charm :thumbup1:


Tadammm

OMG, that sign is awesome :thumbup:, where did you bought it? Did you made it yourself? And why did you do the pre winter work-are you not driving Clio in the winter?

The sign is wrapped in carbon vinyl :thumbup1: did it here m8 - http://www.poglejpoglej.si/

I am driving my car but only 2-3 times per week when the weather is stable enough to drive around 50-60km at least. Not going to work with it and the usual stuff. Using my girly's car for small trips

Beautifully finished for a vinyl one, thumbs up!

It just isn´t real carbon tbh.

Yeah but real carbon can be a pain in the ass to do wanted to see first how it looks and tbh it's only for the looks - no weight reduction to be found in making the badge from real carbon

Will ask my dealer how much a new badge costs and if it's not to much for a genuine Renault part lol I'll maybe buy one and try to get some real carbon on it :thumbup1:

 

[Raptor6767]

Nice, give us some more frontal pics. :thumbup1:

 

[chappo]

great effort mate looks spot on,:biggrin:

 

[colecutter]

It looks great :thumbup:. How much did it cost?

10€ the guy who wrapped it couldn't make it perfect so he charged me only his work and not the material :thumbup:

Took another pic today

 

[colecutter]

You´ll also have to do rear one to match . 10€ is like nothing for such a great result. Maybe someday will give them a visit to, but for now I just don´t have a patience for a job like this. I´m afraid to brake something (happened to me before at my previous car)!
Great m8s, everyday I learn something new:thumbup1:.

Dunno about the rear one :scared:the Clio and Renault Sport badges are still on and they are really bright. Think I would ruin the back "harmony" with a black spot in the middle of the trunk :biggrin:

If you want to do it just take your time and get yourself a punching bag lol was so frustrated from time to time :@! I have to fat arms for such jobs lol but in the end if you stay calm it's a fairly easy job. The hardest thing is to locate the bolts holding the badge.

Closer pic or a high resolution one. :tongue_smilie:

Sony Ericsson 2mpix ftw:biggrin: not everyone has the luxury of a Nokia N95 :-p:lol: in your face :lol:
