Whilst all this was going on I had taken a little trip to go get some goodies
Compbrake fully adjustable top mounts looking forward to getting these on also thought I'd check my stock pile of bits to go on also
And I was still getting updates throughout the day
The little clio is going well had bits done here and there managed to get a full LED kit in the car and it looks fantastic
Then got a call to say I can get the car painted so decided to go ahead and had some work done
And was given updates all throughout the day which was nice
And over the last few days finishing it today have fitted this lot stud and nut conversation kit 90mm fronts and 75mm rears with pms wheel spacers and rear camber shims
Then today
And I will grace the thread with the rest of the pictures in a min
