As you can see I had the Clubsport Splitters and the Grilles Colour coded

I also took the opportunity to have the whole front bumper respayed as it was badly pitted.

So there you go Tedskis Clubsport

Very happy with the look :D

very very nice mate - subtle really is the key ingredient.....

i've heard people talking about 10mm spacers, but do you not find any understeer as a result from the wider track?

did you need longer bolts also?

Only put the Spacers on yesterday so not really sure yet :confused:

Yes longer bolts required , easily available also bought some McGard longer Locking bolts too ;)

Thats a very nice stance, exactly what i'm looking for on my 330Ci SE. Can anyone confirm if this is how low my car will look with Eibach Pros? Are the "clubsports" any lower than "Sports"? Having said that the car does have 19in rims.

And very nice front end mate, looks much better with the colour coded grill and splitters.

another clubsport owner! excellent pics :)

those wheels really suit it. As above first thing i noticed was no clubsport spoiler.
Also clear black projector style front indicators look awesome!

Great looking motor...

My only problems with the CS were the spoiler (which looks a bit "aftermarket" for my tastes) and the unpainted splitters.

Top job mate! :)

Re: CS Rear Spoiler

I don't go much for the style of OEM CS rear spoiler

So I magaged to find a Clubsport that had the rare Factory option of a Bootlip spoiler :D

they are the osram diadem bulbs , i wasnt happy with the chrome ones as they are not very bright, used to get a few flashes from other people thinking i'm not indicating. These are much brighter, better bulbs (same as used standard in the Focus RS i think)
