Over 4k in mods this week and was so excited , last night i decided to clean my BBS CH's all round as they were just sitting in the garage since i took them off waiting for my BBK to arrive (good deal on some 2nd hand 380mm brembos F&R) Having just forked out £250 for a new front rim as i hit a huge pot hole and the rim was severly bent i thought uhhhh id best check you the rear too.

Now i need you opinions here guys , the rear turns out to be bent too BUT only very very slightly on the inside (front was out & inside) , do u think i can get away with this being on the rear and all etc?

It put a downer on my modding spree but hey , such is life.

I have now bought just about everything i needed before the dreaded SC conversion looming.

So , its save , save & save!

I shall post some pics of my latest mods soooooon

As the the wheels Paul Lepson's do a very good job at refurbing alloys. They do all my wheels that we get in from work. Looking forward to seeing your pictures.

If it's only slight you should get away with it Paul.

Have you done any homework on the clearance between the front CH's and the Brembo calipers? I had to fit 18mm spacers for the CS wheels to clear.

Just seeing if your prepared. :p

Cheers fellas :(

John , its VERY slight , its just iv already replaced one so if i did 2 i mean hell , i may as well have got a set , so im going to leave it anyway and see how it goes.

As for clearence , i did lots of homework to find.......... they fit straight on! i was so relieved, i do lots of hard miles so i wanted to avoid spacers if possilbe so thats a bonus.

I cannot wait to get it all fitted , the wheels are all as new as are the brakes +

Carbon side grilles (CHEERS TED!)
Matt black fronts
eibach anti rolls
Jlevi fog covers
SSDD Carbon engine cover INC. ///M LOGO :) (CHEERS TED ADAIN!)
errrr
Full interior xenon BULB kit , hated the led's :( too bloody dark
oh and the csl diffuser & strassy lip, last 2 items were £470 delivered! hope the quality does not reflect the price ;)

Pics soon of brakes/rims/grilles

body work items fitted next year maybe ,hmm


Cheers fellas!

if it's a slight bend, just get them rebalanced and all is fine. I've got a very slight bend in the inner lip of one of the HRE (rear), tyre_man rebalanced and it's absolutely fine
