Some sound deadening of the boot floor and tailgate also works wonders.

I never did a direct comparison vs OEM NVH levels but I seem to remember it was dramatically better than the power flex that was in previously. One thing, they were leagues ahead in terms of build quality vs OEM.

Lol at @Louis, 😅 She certainly wasn’t a garage queen and I tried to prolong it as much as possible. Even with those rear qtrs coated in Hydrate 80, full of BH Electrox zinc coating and Dynax, I guess it only prevents the inevitable if the cars are used. Interesting you’re finding the rear...

I had a PMS with decat and a stock cat. The stock cat is already a high flow cat so I don’t personally see any reason to fit an aftermarket sports cat.

i swapped the whole lot including the 197/200 master cylinder. Big improvement in feel and stopping power. Full PMS 280mm 2 piece kit with Pagid RSL29. Its worth noting I had RSL29s in the stock calipers too.

That comment aged well, ultimately i also fitted the PMS 280mm 2 piece Brembo kit lol

Tasteful change mate, nicely done. :)

Get the speakers mounted solid and add the mini Focal amp. I had one in my 182 glove box and coupled to my Alpine HU, it drives them really well. Some pics of my install when I did it. It’s a 450W 4 ch amp that fits in the palm of your hand!

Apart from the charger, have you been able to use it yet?

Wonder if he fancies a straight swap with a LY Megane 300 Trophy? :D

It wouldn't cost much to be fabricated.

Make your own brackets mate, theyre only a single bolt AFAIK.

The issue with having a fabric/strap-mounted receiver is its a pain to plug the belt in as you're forced to hold the receiver with your other hand. This can be awkward. Always use a firm cable or suitable bracket-mounted receiver if possible.

Personally if you’re going to the effort to overhaul a beam. That’s the way I’d go. Less stuff hanging off the car too.

Personally I much preferred the design and location of the PMS bar. The Whiteline always looks like a cheap afterthought IMO. Just my thoughts, entirely your choice mate. The WL is certainly much easier to remove at a later date. Maybe ask yourself what you want from the car and if you feel...
