When a drying towel has dried out it will repel water more than soak it, especially when there is very little water on your car.
When I come to drying the car, I put my three/four towels in a bucket of warm water. This soaks the towels. I then ring them out...

Yeah, have only noticed it over the last couple of months. Best way to tell? Nothing came up from Birchdown today/yest?
Can I just upgrade these to Koni adjustables? If so, how much is it likely to cost for a ph2 non sport?
Fronts are fine, and even better now the AST top mounts are helping them dampers out mahoosively!

Just a quick un, if you put microfibre cloths in the washing machine and the dryer they will "de-charge" themselves, meaning they will never be as good.
Leave them to soak (I do this with all my kit, not just MF towels), hand wash them, leave them to dry in an aired space (airing cupboard...

There are no advantages. However, if he wants a replica then the cost is usually not an issue.
All in you are looking at around 500-750 for parts, around 1000-1500 for spraying. Then wheels, xenons at 250, fogs, splitters around 75, the list goes on and on mate.
All the same mate, no difference in bolt size, that is only for the hubs when ordering coil overs. HOWEVER, you will need them machining if you lower in coilies as these require a different size (I actually don't know if it is the top hat for the spring, or some other part!)

Dave,
Mine are being setup at Demon Tweaks. It costs 60 quid for full camber, castor and tracking to be done. The top mounts were fitted by Birchdown. Think it is about an hour to fit, but my car was in for a service with them as well, so now idea on pricing.
