    Trim clips look good and sturdy - where did you get them from?
     
  6. They are very good, My local motor factors. Might find some on eBay?

    Looks brilliant mate. I need some of them clips. 90% of mine are snapped and just in there for show and not actually doing anything.
     
  8. Yeah those clips look very sturdy. Could be doing with a few myself.
     
  9. Can't find them anywhere on eBay.. I might buy a bulk lot and pass them out... I'll find out how much I can get a bulk lot for
     
  10. Was actually going to suggest that mate. I'll take a good few off you.
     
  11. Another job I've been wanting to do since I've had my megane, but it being low on my list I've left it.

    its the normal issue with the handle bits cracking. It's not just a paint its a foil/metal type cover on them. As I found out by slicing my finger when removing it :-/

    i decided to cover them with some very similar colour vinyl I had in my garage, if it didn't work I wouldn't be down any cash.

  12. I'm sure I just read this somewhere lol
     
  13. Good job mate, I can't make out what the 1st picture is though , something green
     
  14. That's the handle part, that's the colour underneath the silver foil material. It just pulls off nicely
     
  15. You've made a good job of that
     
  16. Cheers Steve... Both done and fitted now. What's the black square behind the handle?

  17. thats the sensor for keyless entry
     
  18. I don't have keyless entry though...? Was the sensors just put there for all r26's?
     
  19. R26

    R26

    It's just a blanking plate, it does nothing so far as I can tell, I have it too and I'm without keyless.
     
  20. Couple of my fav pics from Cadwell, after all the cash and time I've spent on this car and not even owning it two Years I fancy a MK2 PB Focus :-/

  21. Smart pics Glen :smile:
     
  22. You'd be Mental to sell that glen. You've got it looking brilliant.
     
  23. Cheers guys. I'm keeping for a little longer. It would be a shame the amount of cash I've spent on it in a short space of time.

    next up is front bumper and bonnet re spray with clear film added after and rear arches re sprayed

    currently sat in the garage all stripped ready for a polish and some AF tough coat Friday night

  24. No pics :-( but had my drivers side shaft changed over and solved the annoying clicking I had and while I was at mark blacks he noticed that my top engine mount had dropped and this was causing the bad vibrations I had ( I thought it was the forge hard pipe kit I had on and was gonna strip the front end off today to check it out) had another new one there in half hour and fitted as the other one was only 3 months old and failed

    cheers
     
  25. From the Renault dealers mate... £30
     
  26. Nice one mate. Super Mark!
     
  27. This is an EPIC thread!
     
  28. Not a massive update but an update

    decided to fit some fog blanks as I never use the fogs anyway

    nothing planned for it really apart from a decent detail for summer and a DIY job on the rear arches to fill in some stone chips

  30. They look smart pal. Will really miss your thread if you do sell....Your posts have always inspired me. You remind me of me, but with extra cash.. anyway, hope you keep her but good luck with whatever you choose. P.
