    Sounds good but......

    Can't believe you dared post without having the pictures to post at the same time...

    Will Merc be fitting his poly mount next Sunday after he's done the turbo?

    Looks smart, Volan's really set it off. Just needs a little suspension drop and the front R spoiler and it will look spot on

    Oh yeah completely pointless fitting it till it's painted. Light tint will work well as you say too dark a tint will be too much and make it look pimp imho. Be good to see it sitting lower and more level too, but as with everything all in good time I guess...

    Not yet mate, the last run of repairs left me broke (and europarts had none in stock) but... gotta get a new lower front mount bush so might sneak it in there while I'm at it
    16t Hmm I got one of those, gettin tired tho, might have to save up for a 19T after the remap - that I gotta save up for - after the front shocks I gotta save up for! lol
