Yeah this is my thinking dude. And the weight doesn't really bother me, the car is set up for looks over speed as I never really drive it hard. I just like the looks of the 2118s!
They are darker mate, not sure what paint code etc as they were done before I bought them. I do prefer a darker shade than the standard anthracite though.
Rear one is the ''carbon'' K-tec one, not in the best of conditions. The front one is the polished K-tec one in pretty good nick tbh. No idea what they are worth, not much I'd imagine though.
I've just realised I may be confusing ARB's with strut braces?
Basically the one in the boot, and the one under the bonnet between the two top mounts.
Excuse my mechanical ineptism.
Car came with both when I bought it, and basically the squeeking etc is just abit tiresome at times. I never drive it hard enough for these to be neccessary either tbh.
Would I cause any problems if I just remove them both? Will I notice any difference?
I know many people aren't fans of Arctic Blue, and I wasn't before I bought this tbh. There is another Arctic knocking around my way, and the guy obviously doesn't care about it as its never clean. And as stupid as it sounds mine looks like a completely different colour to his!

Ideally I want some 2118s but I have to admit I secretly love the wheels that are on it now. And the condition they are in is beyond mint. I'm just having scrubbing issues with the 16's and k-tecs coils. New coils may sort that though.
I missed mine alot aswell. I just can't put my finger on what it is about them. I never fail to smile when I drive it!
K-tec's finest. Although they are making way for Bilsteins or H&Rs within the next few weeks.
Haven't used the car for going on a month now, and while the sun was out I decided to get it out of the warehouse and give it a good thrashing. Grabbed a couple of pictures first as she was looking minty fresh.
When you've been driving a van for a few weeks and you get back into an RS, it feels...
Im a mechanical noob so bare with me..
When I bought the car it has a Custom Exhaust from a company called Pipewerx. The exhaust itself sounds epic, imo, but it is a little too loud for me now.
Will this exhaust any other 182?
