[nik_rowlands3]

January 2012


This is Pretty much what it looked like the day I picked it up, Standard, with the Keyless Entry and Start , Leather Interior


Carbon Fibre Wrapped the Front and Back Badge and Fitted Private Plate Slightly Visible in Picture


Angel Eyes , Bargain Buy cost me about £25 just had to rewire them , was not difficult at all


Night Time Angel Eyes , The Flash makes them look less bright, next time I will turn the flash off LOL

Shortly followed by fitted the same afternoon


Megane 225 Front Bumper and Grill , As well as the Roof Carbon Fibre Wrapped

Megane 225 Rear Bumper Fitted and Painted


May 22nd Went Shopping with a Mate Came Back with a Megane CC for Him Lol,


After a Month of Modifications this is his and mine, at this point I had had a Custom exhaust made from a 225 Exhaust, This Exhaust is fully piped in and works.

Still Needs some Alloys so I brought Some BK Racing 17 Inchs but need painting so still sitting in Garage will get round these eventually.

The Grey Paint Job seemed a little boring and did not stand out from the crowd, So I fancied somthing a little differnet so I saved me pennys and make a massive Change


Rolled Up to Spray Garage, with a Mate got out Walked through car park straight in the office, Me:Hi Mate , Des Garage Man: What you think of it, its came out really nice. Me: I have not seen it where is it, Des Garage Man: It must look different if you didnt see it. At this point I run outside


First Time I saw it OMG OMG OMG


Get in


Well Happy


Full Respray in Pearl White , Door Handles Colour Coded



Rear Boot Debadged, Megane 225 Rear Grills Fitted , Rear Tow Eye Smoothed, Rear Number Plate Holder Sprayed Black.

Also Fitted Classic Pressed Plates can be seen on front not on back picture as it was raining when I finished.

They look nice.

Any ideas where to buy the stud adapters

Cheapest quote have had us 250 for a adapters

[almcgrail]

Adapters are available from larkspeed or venom motorsport and about 250 will get you all 4.
You may be able to get a cheaper brand, but like they said to me when I bought mine it could cost you your life; fair point.
If you went for the Porsche reps they are high offset and fairly wide so with the adapters should really fill out the massive arches but not protrude them.

[nik_rowlands3]

I was thinking deep dish black alloys like the lambo gallardo

Or may move see if a set of 20 inch range rovers will go on

Any other rim suggestions mate ,

Gonna order so Jom coilovers end of April wanna drop it 80mm all way round if that possible

You seem to know a lot more then me on coilovers and wheels adapter

So appreciate the help

[almcgrail]

If it were me I'd stick to porsche or aftermarket porsche rims, its the safest bet as all the parts you need are off the shelf. If you go for range rover or lambo rims you'd probably have to get some adapters made up and due to the lower offsets on these wheels they would stick out a mile; I'm not saying it cant be done but the calculations for the porsche set up are fairly easy, and depending on the width of hub adapter you'll get flush with the arches or even reasonable poke with a bit of stretch tyre.
Ebay 19" and 20" porsche alloys, genuine or aftermarket, but look out for the mega wide rears as they might be too wide.

Car looks mint by the way.

very nice, love it in white.
Where did the bumpers come from and what set up is the exhaust now? Noticed it is twin pipe, not the usual single

[DragTheLake]
