'bout 20mm, trick is to pilot drill the holes into the splitter before trying to attach it to the bumper, as you could never get a drill under there if you're not putting the car on a ramp.

yep, exactly the same.

yep, opieoils is where i got mine from too.. good service.

sounds a bit like my experience at Renault in Huddersfield. Forgot to do this, "it'll take an hour", "oh sorry sir, it'll be 3 hours", "we haven't got the part", blah, blah.

its roughly 30, never dared to go more than that... *slightly off topic, a toyota avensis - when the range says 0 miles, it will still have 2 litres left in the tank.. tried it last night, it accepted 53 litres...

self tapping screws & you dont need the bumper off.. you can do it on your own, if you like to do a bit of swearing...

Can you get the full refund & then take it somewhere to get it repaired?

Any good custom exhaust place will be able to knock out a stealth exhaust system for you.. have a search for peeople's recommendations.. stealth is the way to go IMO.. dont have the headache of choosing tailpipe design, or cleaning it, or cutting bumper to suit it..

you can sometimes get them on ebay, can go from anywhere between £50 - £100+

no idea, but my bonnet is littered with them around that area too.. I dont like to call them dents, I prefer "aerodynamic enhancements"...

greydevilindustries - not that far away..

Over £6500 of options, was over £32000 New bl00dy 'ell !!! Nice car though. Great colour.

colour coding?

mk2 172's will have the spare wheel well. Take the spare out & the carpet & the wife can fit at least 8 more bags of shopping in the boot!!!

mine bent, but I cant really see them unless I'm under the car, so f.k em, they can stay bent.. hammer & dolly set..

you can see the green stuff pads a little through the 172 wheels, not a lot though.. dunno about 182 wheels? my front discs lasted about 30k-40k (I drive like a fairy) Now running Brembo discs as recommended by Fred - no complaints (IIRC roughly same price as OEM's)

your OEM wheels would have been et 43 the mk2 172's wheels are et48 - which should fit ok the 182 cup & trophy are et45 - so these'll fit ok too 172 cup are et38.5 - should just fit Someone must've put them on before..

sorry to go off topic, but - that 3rd picture down looks like you've parked in a field??

decat is cheaper & free's more bhp.. but can be a pain to swap over come mot time, unless you know the mot tester ;) sports cat is usually a lot more £££, but you're still legal & shouldn't have to swap over for the mot Decat gets my vote

Greenstuff pads have worked well for me, better than the OEM pads (more bite) & less dust too. Not recommended to be used on track so I hear.

yep, superglue work a treat.. currently running haroldite on mine.. not popped out for months... and the water still gets through

EBC Green Stuff Pads from Yozzasport...

12k

think its for the pair.. wear indicators on them too

the 172 and 172cup are exactly the same exhaust system aint they? yep

if you're wanting the anthracite wheels, refurbing your own will be the best option IMO.
