Are those sill protectors a standard thing on the trophy?

This is very strange as I was just thinking maybe I will fit a whiteline rear ARB to see if the back end settles down so I dont need to go down the coilover route. I'm extremely interested to see your thoughts on the rear ARB addition to the already good trophy chassis
Great to see another trophy in good condition I'm just about to start a progress thread for mine

I went for a drive yesturday.. so heres my verdict:
Its...AWESOME!
It just so point-and-go!
On the really tight (say, 40-50mph bends) its just hold on and on and on, its like a train on rails.
I can feel there is more lateral sheer force acting on the rear tyres, but not enough for them to let go. On a track situation.. I guess it would be more prone to lift off oversteer, but its nothing scary and its still progressive enough. Its not as progressive as standard (all the weight on the front slowly moving into slight understeer) but I'd say the overall grip and handling has improved.
Would I recommend? Yes.

Thats MINT!!! You Must Of Spent Loads Of Money On It....
No, I'm on the look out for second hand but I'm in no rush. I don't need it any harder than it already is tbh.
Love it tbh. Feels a lot more eager and responsive. The only downside being a sort of boomy bass noise in the cabin on idle.Whats it like with the decat? just bought one for my RS192 system on my trophy
