No he means the painted parts are already painted so for the rear they will mask the paint, and just colour code the plastics.
Or i suppose they might paint the whole thing.
Front and back can yeah, Im not sure how easily. Try a screwdriver wraped in tape and be carefull, Or if worse comes to worst bumper off? 20 min job..
Got to take mine off soon for colourcoding.
I would get it checked out as soon as you can, Brakes are obviously an important part of the car, But as long as your not motorway driving and dont do any fast driving should be ok, If its only wobbling.
Warped discs, Tracking out?, Buckled wheel (a lot of pot holes about) but then at high speed it would wobble so probs unlikely, Burnt pad material on the disc a possibility as well? Or could be pads f'cked already?
Either get it to a garage for a look, Or get the wheels off for a quick look.
Thought id bump this up rather than make a new thread, Richy22 or someone who knows, Is his splitter the same as this?

^ Thats £27 delievered. Anyone know how much they are from the pug stealers?
Nope, I dont think it will lower it that much, I just want to close the arch gap a bit for now.
Not planning on keeping the car too long...
Interested still if anyone has any pics.
Ive searched the first few pages and i cant seem to find more than one or two non sports on pro kit springs.
Anybody got any pics to show me please, Theyre in the post and im just interested to see what they look like.
Anyone have the part number for the top mount bolts?
Or is it the nuts that hold the springs compressed that have nylon locks on?
..OR do i not need to bother replacing ?
Also my last MOT had a advisiory that "Front mcpherson struts at the upper mount" have movement at the upper...
Well hopefully he can press out the old one and re press the new one in without bother.
If youve failed your MOT, You can only drive it to and from the MOT centre iirc.
The wheel bearings are pressed into the disc, They come pre pressed from Renault if you buy them there.
Take the brakes apart (see guide section), Check the pads arent crumbling, Also look to see if the pistons are corroded and can move the pads freely.
The lip that runs along each side of the car for jacking up, As said dont bother, Ask the garage to bash it back for you, If they want to charge tell them to lump it, Cant fail you.
Id go for standard pads, If you want cheap. Not too sure if the link are aftermarket or...
Should be found on...
Camskill for the tyres, Any fitters should charge about £7-15 a wheel to fit and balance,
I'd get the garage to do the balljoints as tracking will need doing after, But also parts could be bought and fitted, Then just have the tracking done
Rear wheel bearings are pressed into the discs on...

Id try either of the Hankooks, Been inpressed with my V12 Hankooks (dont seem to have them for your size), Someone might be able to reccomend from that list.
Just secured some pro kit non sport Eibach springs, Got them because im desperate for them now, tired of waiting for sportlines to come along and dont want to pay new prices.
How much do they realisticly lower by? Around 15-25mm ?
I just want to slightly rid the body roll and close the arch...
Easily fixed, Liquid force or simular name has the same eye lid mods on the headlights and his car pulled them off, This one does'nt
The white looks nice, Little trip to the spray booth could sort it out.
I'd get the blackberry 9700, A very nice phone my mate has it, I have the Curve 8520 (cam has no flash and is s**t)
Wish i had the 9700 has a good cam, flash, good features and looks good.
Been good for me £690 19 years old, 1.2, 2 years ncb, With mods.
All insurance companies like to shift people on, Just a case of a lot of phoning and online quotes.
