Thanks Nige, you deserve credit as one of the trend setters and still one of the best looking replicas.

Anything new on yours?

I got bored so I thought I get my hands dirty and waste more money on the Megane.

I Debadged boot lid and painted the calipers myself.

Got a New Torque Exhaust Back Box (Correct pressure = better acceleration and more noise), Front bumper resprayed, Door handles and gear gaiter resprayed, engine and battery cover colour coded.

All looks and sounds nice but £380 dent in my wallet :-(
Why I keep doing it I don't know, just addicted :-)

Thanks to Torque Exhausts, Enfield and Prism Bodyworks, Tottenham.

Also found this on eBay and I got through the post after I posted this message. Lovely carbon wrap ready with all the cut holes for our Megane Keycards. Only £13! I love carbon pattern so I think its worth it :-)

was actually going to try wrapping the handbrake as its only a crappy plastic cover not a leather one.

Looks very good, them wheels need sorting though. My advice stick the spacers on 25/30mm and if you can go bigger with alloys

Well done! The car looks amazing!
I can only hope my project will finish in this manner :)

I'm also interested (if it's not a secret :P) how much you spent on RS 225 MPH/RPM counter? And how you managed that it shows your RPM, miles, etc. correctly?
Thanks in advane for information.

Great job done Sir!

I paid £55 for the speedo on ebay, and £80 to renault to turn off the "tyre pressure monitor fault" error message and correct miles

What about the RPM? As 1.5 dci shows to 5k; this one to 7k.

Also question, what are those fog lights you got? They're more white? Do they do their job?

Thanks :)

Yeah still revs max 5000RPM

The Fogs are just LED bulbs, bright as the image and do the job.
But im looking into xenons because when I put the fogs on with the headlamps
the xenon projectors "take over" and the fogs are hardly noticeable.
