Car back! feels so much better.

Lots of little issues with valves / sensors / timing etc... think it had been a while since its last service!

Have postponed suspension upgrade for now to order some more bits although i have ordered Bilstein B8 shocks, Eibach Pro spring kit (full B12 kit); and have the rear B8s currently fitted to overcome my poorly shocks for the time being!

Lost a wheel centre so had to take them all off for now! Gave the car a serious clean today, got some new plastic and black trim restore which worked really well around the windows and bumpers - car looks amazing!

I think I've decided to ditch the red rears and sell my smoked indicators after all that .... so indecisive!! But alot of people have approached me asking about the car asking if it is standard and i want to be able to say yes! (cosmetically)

So ill wash them down with some carb cleaner and polish them back to new! PM me if you are interested in smoked front (lenses) and side indicators.

I like all of it. The headlights are a cool change from the typical smileys.

Dont worry! I have got new bilstein shocks ready, just need to decide on springs...

Heard so many recommendations, ! was about to order Eibach pro but heard they are too soft. I want a relatively firm setup, car is not a daily.

Can anyone advise on:

H&R
KW
Eibach (pro / sportline)

I'm stuck for choice.......!?

H&R Race springs are an incredibly popular choice to mix with bilstein sport shocks. I haven't personally had them on my car, but I hear nothing but good things about the bilstein/H&R race combo.
