[Fernandez]

Car looks awesome, as others have said you got some really tasteful mods, love the leds and the spoiler tips. Interior trim looks very fresh.

Hi mate, where did you get the mud flaps from and were they easy to fit?

Hi mate, where did you get the mud flaps from and were they easy to fit?

Alright,

Basically i drilled into the bottom of the wing and used a spring clip and also just used self tappers into the wheel arch cover and also used the existing torque screw that's already on the bottom wing

Bit of a paint but it paid off

and these are them

I got told by Renault that the cost of developing the headlights/self levelling/self washing system onto the 197 outweighed the number of units sold so they didnt deem it worth their time developing them for the 200

I well heart my Xenons :001_tt1:



:-p

 

[colt3003]

Arghh sooo annoying, you'd think that if they can put brembos on they could pop some xenons haha


An to jealous!

 

[colt3003]

The Interior lights are fully finished and HIDs are in!
Will take photos/vid of HIDs later... enjoy

Few of weekend shots





And now the dreaded... damage pictures, mine got backed into last night by my mates dad in his freelander, also some pics of a 172 we had to pick up

Good work with the HIDs mate, afraid thats a new door had a similar damage to my 197 when the posty forgot to leave his hand break on and rolled into the door,

What ya doing with the cup

 

[A2ON]

I feel your pain

 

[colt3003]

Thanks guys! :/ find out the quote tomorrow

and will put a vid up of the HIDs as soon as i can

and with the cup mate we don't normally do accidents but i've been looking for a rally car to start with for ages! and luckily enough this job popped up! and we should be able to buy it off the insurance company for the amount they owe us in storage

so all in all pretty happy with it!
except the door that is

 

[jimpy9]

Nice job

 

[Yiannis197]

ouch...that door thing is nasty...sorry to hear that buddy

 

[930Tech]

Ouch!! that'd not make you feel good.

 

[Fernandez]

Ouch on the door mate but the dash lights are awesome
