Well got my K-Tec Coilovers fitted yesterday by the guys at Pro-Tec Racing and i've got to say definatly a great purchase, I bloody luv them!!:D

So gave the car a clean, it then rained and the car went dirty again.:mad: (Needs JD's magic touch!)

So meet Anthony (Hollandcup) and we went for a little drive and some pics before finding a big stretch of road with a good size overpass so we had a good listen to our exhausts on drive bys. Made me luv the Yozza even more! (Decat next maybe) ;)

Comments more than welcome guys and gals, hope you like!

Where abouts are you from bud? Pro tec charged inc.Vat and tracking £199, NWP do it at £100 minus the tracking.
Pro tec are only 15min away from so was easier.

I dont think £199 inc vat is too bad for coilover fitment full four wheel laser alignment and camber set up correct me if im wrong callum!

You gotta remember thats full coilover set up ready to drive away not just fitting maybe if you fitted the coilovers youself and then had then properly set up it would be a fair bit cheaper but without the correct tools spring compressors, windy guns etc its a pain in the arse.

Id rather pay a bit more and have them properly set up for the road than just roughly banging them on and shreding tyres and generally ruining the handling for the sake of a few quid extra its well worth it, some may disagree just my opinion.

Yeah they look great. Mine are really dark and I'm not keen to be honest. I am worried about trying to remove them though.
