    Time for a introduction

    Think it was around £150. Mines slightly different to most as I wanted the perforated parts to extend lower than the oem one does. Should not affect price though.

    Suspension refresh dilema - shocks!

    I recently changed from old cup shocks and springs to new cup shocks and H&R Springs. I was worried it was going to be too hard but it's actually better than the original worn out standard cup suspension.

    SPACERS

    Not really noticed any difference. 20mm is a good size to go with I think.

    SPACERS

    With 20mm spacers without lowering. Personally because the wheels are closer to the edge of the arch I think it looks better than without spacers.

    £400inc del. I was interested in yours but I don't have the tools to deal with the wheel bearing so would of worked out more expensive.
