STREAMLINE CARBON
|  | Looking to gain a competitive edge for your track day sessions? Well, shed weight with these stylish and, more importantly, incredibly light carbon fibre racing seats from specialists Streamline Carbon.
These 'SC1' seats are the real deal, Formula One grade carbon fibre, herringbone laminated as standard to ensure a flawless finish. Individually these seats only weigh around 4kg so they're sure to help you slash your lap times.
These seats are for use with six-point harnesses and 3in shoulder straps and are suitable from most hot hatches, including the Mk2 Clio. Expect to pay £599 per seat or take advantage of their double-discount and get a pair of seats for £1099. Side mounts are included in the price.
Readers should note however that these seats are not FIA approved, meaning they are purely intended for track vehicles (your car will not pass its MoT with these seats installed!)
Of course 106 and Saxo owners will know that Streamline also supply carbon roof panels. The conversion weighs in at 3.4kg compared to 10kg for the OE panel and 18kg for roofs with factory sunroof. The price, fitted, (including inner panels, removal of old roof, windscreen, refitting and relacquering) is £1200.

| | EVOLUTION R
|  | If you're looking to lower the weight of your Clio and indulge in a little exterior styling while your at it then take a look at this Euroline carbon bonnet from Evolution R.
This bonnet, manufactured from ISO certified carbon fibre, has been woven to the tightest possible weave for lasting strength. Plus, unlike other carbon bonnets, this one has an internal skeleton for added support and smooth rolled edges. This also means that it will remain rigid even when open and held on a stay.
The bonnet is finished with a high gloss UV protective coating which allows it to resist the long-term fading of the carbon fibre's natural tint. So, this product will not only continue to look great for years to come but because it's carbon fibre you'll also get to enjoy all the performance benefits of making your Clio lighter. Sounds like win-win scenario to us.
The Euroline Evolution R carbon fibre bonnet from Evolution R is competitively priced at £425. Visit the website for ordering details or call the sales hotline below. | Contact Evolution 01915 184444 www.evolutionr.com

| | CARBON MODS
|  | Dashboard and door panel overlays are great but interior carbon fibre products aren't always just for the cabin. If you want to think outside the box - the battery box that is - then check out this popular engine bay modification from Carbon Mods.
Made from aerospace grade materials this carbon fibre battery cover not only looks jaw-droppingly good, with the great effect
of an authentic 2/2 twill weave combined with a high gloss finish, but it also boasts solid resistance to temperature, chemicals and UV light.
The inner face of these covers also have an exceptionally high electrical resistance, essential for protecting the battery from accident short circuits, and unlike other covers attached with self-adhesive Velcro this one is far safer as it's mounted to create a ventilation stand-off.
This 7in deep version is available in various lengths (9.5in is the most common length to fit most cars, including the Clio) and costs £24.95. Readers should be aware that in some cases, depending on your desired wire routing, a small amount of trimming may be required to get the best fit.
This is a great enhancement for any engine bay, plus is a simple, but pleasing addition if you're on a budget.
