Thanks goodness that one didn't appeal Pav.

Now off to lock this thread for a bit though....

There's a pair of those Corbeau ones on eBay that are damaged slightly underneath; £475 for the pair.

Bargain if you ask me.

Shame I can't afford them right now or I'd snap them right up!

Dont those "puncture" wounds underneath make you worry over how much abuse / how easy to tear the seat would be in use ?

It could have been done during manufacturing or shipment or something? Not necessarily due to weak craftsmanship

I get what you're saying, but £475 compared to £1000+ for Recaros is a dealbreaker for some.

Not too much happening here of late........

Dash-board decals (Version 3) being collected Monday by my good lady (How hard can it be to do exactly what i want and not what they fancy doing....) !!

Pretty sure i'll order a Cobra drivers seat and mount this week once i've got one last question answered.

So that leaves the obligatory Sunday morning clean as the weather was so nice here in Sunny Suffolk :

Sealed the wheels again:





Check-out my babes butt :



Side-shot:



Team-Tango ! :

 

[Pav]

nice nice mate..the interior is coming along nicely..

 

[Gordini]

Looks great Syer, love the orange Nike band on the gear gaiter

 

[Chris]

Bloody lovely

 

[Jimmy]

Great work on the cleaning Shuv, that looks gorgeous mate! I really like the tango interior too, suits it very well. Very nice car!

Carbon Fibre inlet manifold badge purchased today - Streamline carbon are adding Yellow "RENAULT sport" decals for me and then lacquering over the lot. Hopefully might see it this coming week..........

Inlet manifold badge:



An example of the Yellow text i'll be having:

Blimey you do a good job when you clean it don't you Shuv, it looks immaculate, inside and out

The bullet and manifold badge look ace! It's always the little things that make such a difference.

Thanks buddy. I try

Ha ha - to be fair it never gets that dirty. Especially inside.......3/4 hour gets the job done anytime !

Outside was a near 5 hour job this am....mainly because i sealed the wheels and lobbed another layer of wax on the outside. Not really needed....but at this time of year and only having weekends to do it - you dont know when the next chance will be.

£50 for the Manifold badge is a little decadent and i had considered doing it myself like Pav. But hey-ho; by the time i've removed the old one, wrapped it, bought a decal and then lacquered it; its easier to let the pros do it and just do a little overtime myself to pay for it

 

[Gordini]

That manifold badge is a thing of beauty. Can't wait to see it on

Pedals looking mighty shiny Shuv... you replaced these or is there a magic trick for keeping these clean?

 

[Jimmy]

Nice little touches on the car, as always Shuv.

I imagine the pedals will have been shined up, ready for the footrest to be going in shortly

 

[sevenfourate]

Cheers guys.

Pedals are 'as is'. Secret to keeping clean is to make sure you get as much crud off your shoes as you can using the mats in the wife's car before stepping into the Clio....

Yea - not sure what's next Jimmy. Don't think I want stiffer suspension. Engine / exhaust all good, seat on the way. Bumper respray perhaps....few stone chips bug me every cleaning session.

 

[Jimmy]

Just have a blast enjoying it Shuv! Get out for some epic drives, enjoy the fruits of your labour! Although, I can see that you do always like to have something on the go, so not sure if that would be enough to satisfy you
