Well its not f**king brain surgery, just giving the dude the jist of it!
Just take out the fogs, tape over the wires and do a similar thing to the pics..

I heard that the 172s are missing the rubber cup or something where the spring goes into...it would be a reason for that noise but im not entirely sure. Cant remember who told me either..lol

The exhaust is nothing special..its just loud..not very civilised on motorways but unless youre an old man i doubt youd care that much. For a 1.2 it sounds great though. I would give them a 10/10 for customer satisfaction, they genuinely make the effort to please you.

Not sure, they probably wouldnt want to actively void your warranty. Plus theyd charge loads. Id personally go to k-tec as they have the experience but if you look in the yellow pages all the modified car places and motorsport specialists should be able to do it without problems. With k-tec...

Bear in mind the -55mm kit costs around £50 more..
Yes with 16s it would be a tad lower thanks to the profile of the tyre.
You want a bit of negative camber for better handling, so yes just...
You wont. All you need to do is the tracking and alignment..thats £40 quid. You could get the Spax -55mm kit for a few hundred and your car will look better and go better! New wheels and tyre will cost you an arm and a leg, and it will still look like a 4x4..people will wonder why you bothered...
Never seen a modified ITR, always thought they rode a bit high and that white is like a weird cream...that red one is sweet! Id consider one if i was in Iains position defo!

Just give paint them the OE colour again. I really dont see the point in the brembo look when people have piddly calipers and discs, its just drawing attention to naff and ugly brakes!

16s (ET38.5), 70mm, full lock and no rubbing with 4 people in back seats.
The 15s wont look pants, i like the OE wheels, remember Bambams Clio still looked good with them on.

Ive just done a search and he didnt get the 4pots in the end, just the enlarged kit i mentioned. It was a 1.4 too! Still looks pretty tasty..

Theres a few companies which do straight swaps, but k-tec do an enlarged disc set (285mm).
The OEs are probably good enough for a 1.2..but that certainly isnt enough for me, im going for the 4 pot kit which i think someone on here has already done, on a 1.6 though if i remember correctly.
