Those wheel wells look like new

Love the wheels with the caps too.

Looking good! Did you fit the oz Turbos per chance? Also what Gaz coilovers are they?

Put them on before I sold them just for fitting purposes and they were too wide, didn't suit the car unfortunately haven't got any pictures either. They're the GHA coilovers mate

Another new part to add to the car! Great service yet again from Wallothnesch! And on sale so the temptation was too much to turn down

Nice

Good upgrade you can feel the difference when fitted.

Well as always when buying a new part and fitting it to this car, theres always bloody something that puts a downer on everything! Strut brace is hitting the air box which I kind of expected to happen, however would of been nice for the description when buying the brace to give more information rather than 'FITS ALL MODELS' because it clearly does but clearly isn't designed specifically for this engine!
Anyway, after contemplating dropping the box down if its possible or running a couple of spacers on the top mounts to get it cleared, I've decided to just purchase the K&N upgraded air filter, if I knew these cars were money pits, I wouldn't of bloody bought it haha! Never mind though ay, just gives me more reason to play with the car!

There's always a solution, even spacers, but I'd still like to shoot businesses that indicate that something fits all models if it actually doesn't fit 50% of them indeed! Doesn't look bad though!

Do you have a webber? They are slightly taller than the stock car and that might be the issue.

Never went for it in the end, think I'm just going to use spacers or see if the housing can be dropped down a little. Don't want to take the originality out of the engine bay.

Haven't updated in a while, heres the wheel choice I've gone for rather than the RS's.
