yeah everyone says its a strange choice like mates until they come out in and then realise that, for one this goes round corners, 2 its extremely fun, and 3 its hardly any slower, ibiza may of had 220 bhp but thats for a split second then it would die off rapidly.. clio power delivery and drive is great fun

Adam i really like the blueflame but heard they dont fit too well from a few, do you know if your mate had any problems ?

yeah he had to adjust it every so often as it would slowly move out of position and look a bit wierd. wouldnt be so bad if they didnt have the cutouts in the bumper.

I'm really hoping to get this if my Coupe sells this weekend. I've missed my first Cup since the day I sold it.

it wouldnt surprise me if that needed a new mount, unless the system is designed to hang that low. not a big deal, just a pain in the back side
