The OEM exhaust on the Megane III is angled downwards. Therefore, in order to utilise the OEM exhaust and have the exhaust fumes directed through the central chrome exhaust trim, I had AmD Tuning in Essex build and install a custom fabricated exhaust tailpipe with a rubber hanger mount system. They made the tailpipe with a rectangular tip instead of a regular rounded tip. This looks much better when looking through the chrome exhaust trim.
A massive thanks goes to the guys at AmD Tuning. They did a superb job on the exhaust tailpipe and rubber hanger mechanism. The guys at AmD Tuning were very helpful. I've added a link to their website in the related links.
Below are some pics of the custom tailpipe work carried out by AmD Tunning. The hanger mechanism is nicely hidden away and cannot be seen through the chrome exhaust trim.
I decided to paint the lower section of the RenaultSport dashboard trim in gloss yellow. Below are some pics of the finished dashboard trim painted with a gloss yellow stripe to replace the OEM silver.
Previously, I had wrapped my center air-vent in brushed aluminium 3M Di-Noc to match my silver side air-vents (details about this can be found here). However, I now like the gloss black versions that come on the new megane 265, I think it looks much better so decided to gloss black some interior trims myself. I decided to paint the following parts in gloss black:
- Center and Side dashboard air-vent trims
- Interior Door Handles (possibly exterior handles too)
- Centre Console
I had some time last week and weather was good so managed to complete the air-vent trims. The interior door handles and centre console is to follow maybe sometime next week.
I'm also thinking to paint the lower-section of the carbon-style dashboard trim. The lower-section is factory painted in silver. I'm thinking to paint this in yellow and planning to do this end of the month. (***UPDATE*** This has now been painted, pics can be found here)
Below are pics of my DIY painting of the air-vent trims. I was after a deep-gloss finish, which comes from several layers of wet sanded clear-coat.
