Nice one JW. Welcome to the Club.
Can I ask how much the coilovers cost you to put on, and how do you find them?

Jesus Chris it's not hard to do a search on coilovers that fit your car...

I mean how are the coilovers handling wise?
Don't know anyone that got them fitted other than ds3r- so asking for second opinion
And if he got a great price, would call the supplier to see what theyd do mine for :-)

the coilovers were £800 bought from BC themselves they didnt fit as the strut diameter is different but i got a mate who is a fabricator to machine them down to size and strengthen them handling wise they are brilliant worth every penny. I had bilsteins on my previous car and these are by far better

Thanks JW- useful info. Been emailing BC and they offered me sale or return for £780 for a set they reckon will fit mine. Too much for me at the mo.

Same colour combo as me! Looks amazing lowered, can't wait to renew my insurance with another company so I can get modding! There was more freedom in Nazi Germany that I currently have!
