Potential ..
I might ask the cat the breath on it .. better safe than sorry..
Saying that, if the ****er sits on it, I might have a use for the heat gun.

De-badged will look good on yours
Titanium or Anthracite,Hyper-black is my favourite for wheels and really will suit yours
Not sure about the roof rails,de-railed look will suit yours and optically will lower yours wagon
And RA roof flap will look just amazing on the wagon
Otherwise looking good matey

It is lowered and I like the black look, white wheel look odd on blue cars.

Looks very nice that. I'd go with STi rear lights, slightly lighter colour for the wheels maybe. I quite like roof rails, so I'd say keep those.
Did you selly our Clio in the end?

Engine needs a clean, buts it's running well ... Can't for the life of me get the glue off the back, were the letters where.
Any suggestions ?
