Nice to see some progress on the cars guys :) shame about the coils mate, hope taking the helpers out gets them as low as you need!

K1fro, get some pics up of your stance when it's done mate, can't wait to see it! I've been waiting for a dry day and enough time to sort my big loop arb out, and need to get on with refurbing my brakes. Then it's mufflerectomy time and hopefully door lock deleting as well if I can get it done. Booked a week off work before the show to make sure I can do any last minute bits. Less than 6 weeks now!

Yeh helpers should see another 20-30mm so will be nicely tucking tyre at the front then dropping the backs accordingly. Just about to book the thursday and friday off as well to make sure the car is cleaned inside and out and everything is finished off. :)

Would be worth a go mate, depends how many cars they have on reserve for the show and shine already I suppose. Glad it's coming together though!

Sorry to hear about the springs mate, was lookin forward to seeing them on. Yeah you should be able to get somethin back for the other ones, are the place you bought them from not going to give you a refund?

I've got my new carriers 95% stripped ready for painting and big brake upgrade, still got my ARB to fit so I can go down another 5mm front and rear, and started piecing together bits to de-lock the driver's door and then just need to sort out a couple of minor scratches (anyone with a DA and an afternoon to spare soon around Chester/North Wales? :p).

5 weeks tomorrow!
