Advise on suspension/brake mods

[jamesy12345]

Seeing as how a set of B6's can be had for a good price and I already have Eibach springs on the car....I've decided to go with the Bilstein's for now. This brand is on the Renault and they seem to be pretty good.

I'm not ruling coilovers out yet, but to get Gaz or RSC I would need to spend between 2 & 4 times more and I will always be wondering if the Bilsteins would have been OK. The roads around my way are rough as...no wish to spend money just to get pissed off rattling about & or more importantly drive straight on through the first bumpy corner...!

For anyone who is interested the B6's are twin-tube at the front (with gas charge) and mono-tube at the rear

//edit...dust covers for the front shocks are available from PFV for 12 quid although not listed.
