can you not take the undertray off with the new zost?

Yes i can but its getting under and pushing it out etc. Ideally i could do with knowing someone with either a lift or buying a decent hydraulic jack.

Came with the wheels on the car mate. They are the interlago wheels that are on the meg r26r i think. Renault will have a part number but i believe they are close to £100 for all 4 corners hmy:

That looks ****in sweeeet!
I wasnt totally sure about this when you got it, and i wasnt totally sure about when you matted the wheels
but now its all coming together, the front aerofoil really goes with the rest of the car, as do the wheels, good work son!

Out of interest, how many tins of plasti dip did you use on the wheels? Might get myself a tin or two and do the bullets and wing mirrors before trying anything bigger.

Does it come off easily? i.e if you pressure wash it? i get the impression it will just peel off with it being so thin...

The more coats you put on, the easier it is to get off in big sections as its obviously thicker. Think of it as a durex, lol. It can be pressure washed as normal providing you treat it as you would with any other finish. If you apply it right, the only time it will come off is when you want it too.

2 tins mate, 5 coats on each wheel. 1 tin for the front end and mirror caps.
