Well I picked the car up from the bodyshop but couldn't be bothered to stay back at work and fit the coilovers, so that's a job for tomorrow.....

You'll also have to have the front wings flashed over so as the bonnet colour doesn't stick out to much, I got quoted £430.00 for front and back bumpers + bonnet + both front wings flashed over...

Well me and the leon took a trip to help a friend who didn't know how to change their dipped beam bulb in their Clio... Well 45 minutes later I'm still doing it haha they give you about 2 inches of space to move it was a pig! You need to be either a hobbit on a stool or someone with such small hands they can fit them up their bum!

Bloody French cars! Grumble grumble lol

It's a joke! They would charge an hours labour to change a bulb I bet! That's £50+

I was so angry at myself for not being able to do it that I checked YouTube and it seems on a Megane it takes a green flag man 45 minutes to change 1 bulb and a normal human 53 seconds to change a golfs...

I don't see how removing the bumper would help the dipped beam is 2 inches away from the fuse box which isn't moving lol

I had a Clio before and it was an absolute nightmare to change the dipped bulb. I paid halfords to do it in the end haha

Now that's a genius idea lol get my monies worth haha
