Fitting Coilvers - Essex

Good Afternoon All,

I've recently purchased a set of GAZ Coilovers for my Clio 182 Cup and as I'm struggling with time to get them fitted therefore I'm looking at getting prices to fit them.

I've contacted both Engine Dynamics and Mark Fish and currently awaiting on prices however I wanted to know of any other recommendations in the local Area. I'm based in Brentwood, Essex.

Cheers.

Any garage should be able to do it mate it's really simple.

It's getting them set up where you might need a pro.

GAZ headquarters are actually in Essex but they won't fit them :( tried that one before.

I wouldn't trust any old garage with fitting coilovers, my local place didn't have a clue!

I have H&R 20mm spacers on order for the fronts and due to the colour of the wheels I now need to paint my brakes calipers as I think the silver looks like there is too much colour going on so I'll give them a coat of black paint this week/weekend.

I hope you like.

Was a pleasure meeting you Tom!

Pictures don't do the car justice, the wheels really suit it well, colour looks great in the sun!

Sits well mate,how you finding them?.

Hard to tell as I took it very easy going home as I was very conscious of how close the tyre was to the coilover, however compare to my initial set up it feel much better already. More stable, slightly firmer ride but the turn in is amazingly different, feels fantastic.

I've order H&R 20mm bolt to hub spacers which should be here tomorrow and then hopefully on Saturday I'll get the car set up.

Was a pleasure meeting you Tom!

Lovely to meet you too and thanks again for sorting it out for me.
