    You've answered your own question - You'll look a d1ck.

    These cars are cult classics now, and, imho, shouldn't be chav'd up with feckwit o.t.t bodykits.

    Standard with a twist, wheels from a clio or somit, just don't chav it up, there's far too many fecked examples due to the bodykit bregaid

    There is nothing wrong with a good fitting body kit & decent paint job... if thats your thing.

    I had a small body kit on my 1st 5, i loved the look of it...


    The crasima kits are not my thing but each to there own.

    I like the dimma kits if fitted correctly with the right paint job to match....

    But there is no better than what Renault did in the first place...

    i once looked into using the gt tuning front intercooler set up but its way to expensive.

    it will cost you nearly £1500 for the bumper and intercooler. find a decent front bumper and buy a universal intercooler, that should cost no more than a few hundred english pounds.

    Yours looks nice,I always liked that kit, a kid used to have the same bumper on his black five up the road from me but ruined it with 2 epiletic vents( not sure of the correct name but there small chrome oval shaped vents) in his front bumper that and a zillion bits of gttuning, K-tec stickers.
    Chrome was coming out of every orifice, he also had a bo ing 747 air craft carrier k-tec spoiler

    The only bodykit I could fit to a gtt would be a maxi f2000 kit after I had made the track 100mm wider with rose jointed bottom arms and moved the strut top location

    your opinions please.......
    I did exactly the same as you mate (apart from ali g-he's a pube !)
    but i bought a 5 with the full kit already on, smoothed tailgate, badboy'ed AND ! airbrushed lightning all over !!

    I look at the standard 5's and think thay look mint but i always wanted the Carisma 5 so i got one !!
    I know it looks OTT and some (all !) people on rtoc don't like it but personal preference is what its all about

    I'm sure if its fitted well and you don't airbrush it with lightning it'll look smart !
    At the end of the day you should do to your car what you want and if someone doesn't like it then they can look the other way
