    Well my car came back yesterday...

    yeah hoping they pull themselves together and get it sorted. as for star city, i will almost certainly come in the courtesy car and save some money on petrol :rasp:

    172/182 bumper, does it sit lower than the 16v bumper?

    when i had a standard 1.2 16v bumper my exhaust sat quite close to it. when i fitted a 172 bumper it practically touched the exhaust so i had to have it adjusted. so the simple answer is yes, but only by a bit. a stealth system is a performance exhaust, so it fits exactly the same, but...

    Well my car came back yesterday...

    Mechanically it does seem to be fine. Correct air filter/ ducting etc.etc. but my issues lie with the bodywork which has been rushed, to put it politely. I rung the bodyshop when i'd calmed down and i didnt even have to tell them, as they already knew - which infuriated me - as they knowingly...

    Getting my strut brace fitted

    i know makavelli had to angle grind a little bracket thing off his in order to get it fitting correctly. he paid somebody to fit it, and the cheap b******s didnt put all the screws in so it had twisted slightly.

    hillpower bend???

    still want somebody to post up a pic of a hillpower bend on a standard mk1 172. nick said they didnt fit quite right, but a few have fitted them so im interested in what the fit is like.

    Well my car came back yesterday...

    ...After 91 days my car finally came back from Admirals Approved Bodyshop Elite Bodycraft. I'm not going to comment on the faults the car had on a public forum until they've been rectified, but its fair to say that it wasnt acceptable for anybody, so especially not myself who is a bit of a...

    Insuring two cars

    all i will say is to avoid admiral multi-car policy. i beg of you lol but if i was in your shoes i would go with two companies and play dumb as imo its stupid to follow the rules and let the insurance companies screw you over.

    172/182 Engine cover...

    any bodyshop can plastic weld it for you if you want it done properly. otherwise you could fill and repair it yourself, and then use it as an excuse to spray it up ;)

    Just Ordered Peronalised Autostyle Mats

    perfection should be the norm imo, but thats a different discussion ;) i bought some mats in the cliosport group buy which made them a good buy, but considering they're supposed to be £80 i would have been disappointed to pay that much for them as the quality on mine was ok at best.

    spacers

    gotya! was going to say that spacers dont allow you to adjust the camber, when in fact you just need a bit of clearance ;) as stated before you've got two options of standard ones, or hubcentric. so about £20 for 4 vs. about £40. on a 5mm it wont make much difference, but fitting standard...

    Just Ordered Peronalised Autostyle Mats

    how much did they cost? as i fancy some new mats but dont fancy paying just matz prices. especially as i thought the quality was arguable

    urgent help req! - broke down

    RAC wouldnt answer when i called for them to pick me up. but the AA/RAC would be the cheapest bet in most cases

    Stealth mk2 and FK opinion!!

    can i assume you got them off rimstyle for £400. wish i had the cash, as now they're about £455 iirc.

    Turini colours

    you can go into any good powder coaters and view the wheels they've already done. i went with 'pewter' powdercoat on my wheels, but its a gunmetal/dark anthracite type colour with loads of flake. just depends on how the powdercoaters name their colours. some use the RAL codes, whilst others...

    spacers

    why do you need spacers to set the camber as they're completely unrelated, or have i missed something in your first post. and white16valver anything around a 25mm will do nicely. i know 25mm is a set size down at my local motor factors, so probably cheaper/easier to source.

    Stealth mk2 and FK opinion!!

    good write up on the FK's. i am in the same boat trying to decide what suspension to go for, and so i think i'll probably opt for the FK's and spunk the change on something unnecessary lol

    who are you with for car insurance???

    i'm with admiral and i would physically pay people i know money NOT to go with them as they're a bag of absolute s**t.
