Trophy friend!
I went for the rally design studs 60mm long (to accommodate a 20mm spacer) and I use muteki 7sided lug nuts on them. There anodised black so dont go nasty, 7 sided so doesnt need a different locking nut and the key to unlock them all stops the nuts from getting marked.
Heres...
FULL OF WANT!!! both look incredible! at CS saturday can all three of us park next to each other? a BG,RB& trophy all with anthracite 2118's!!! would look incredible.
I also think one of the biggest selling points of the RS2 is that they regain all the cruise control etc, no slam panel removal/ grill modifying, can be used on std management and is fractionally cheaper. This is what made me go for the RS2 over ITB's as there awesome for an out&out race car...

Re: A few new additions to Trophy 147/500
I know :( I spose if I still have a set of Sachs somewhere ill still be allowed. The AST's are a bit more focussed I think and I really wanted to be height adjustable aswell as having adjustable damping. They seem a very good compromise to the Sachs...

Cheers Christopher, your RB was a bit of an inspiration to buy a clio!
Haha it is now inferior having AST's ;)
Re: A few new additions to Trophy 147/500
No mate the AST's arrive Sunday so I've not gone ahead with having these others refurbished and will be surplus to requirements!

It sounds nothing like the ones on Youtube you know. I was really worried buying it becuase the BTB sounded epic!! It really is such a smooth well balanced noise!
Yeah sounds good to me Mike. I definitely need some propper pictures because my iphone...

Re: A few new additions to Trophy 147/500
No i have had the bezel out and painted it black and had Ady from N2 Graffix to make me a decal. Looks very OEM in my opinion.

Yeah that's cool my me mike, I should have it all done for circa the 4th April. When's Easter?
Thanks for all the kind comments!
