Cheers guys. and chino, theres a set on ebay atm for sale, ones got a small crack in it though but any welding place could sort that easy! Did have my eye on them as a spare set to do another colour but i reckon they will go for more than i fancy paying atm!

and cheers altech, i do try, been pleased with the results so far, not usually very good at doing exterior and looks mods myself if they are one off! Love the wheels on yours, half tempted by getting a set, they off the octavia?

Also a small update, did it about 10 minutes ago in the dark due to bordom, dont think i like it too much and i reckon itl be coming off, was just curious, what does anyone else think?

Ride quality is awesome, id go as far as to say no worse than standard!

good plan! What are you thinking of doing?

I've had some spare b-pillars done in gloss black, 1 or 2 tiny imperfections but think i might whack them on at the weekend, see what they are like.

Ill keep an eye on your thread for updates :p

Im going to wait and see, i proper cba taking the rear springs out and cups etc just to whack the adjusters on and i love the look atm, its fine with me and the girlfriend in just gonna have to make sure only light skinny people get in the back haha had 15mm spacers on until last week/week before, probably would have been fine with them on and multiple people in the back! The bit that catches on the rear though looks removable :p
