Yeah but a month is long mate, adding to that you already kept us waiting for more than a month....! Nah just kidding, take your time to save up enough money. Better than spending nearly 300 bucks in 2 months like I'm doing :(...

Yeah really sweet bargain(thanks to you :D), he finally got me the right bank number thingy so I finally paid him the money. Hopefully having them on before the 4th of february since my old MOT will run out on the 4th lol...

No problem, good luck with them :)

I am spending £165 on my coilovers + fitting (£100 probably) + tracking/camber (£36)

Then month after
Tyres (£220ish) + Adapters (£230ish) + rolled front arches (£50, if needed)

It all adds up!

You could probably knock the 100 for the fitting off I think mate... If you have the tools you could probably do it yourself...
It should be really, really easy on the Ibiza, at least if it's the same as fitting the old springs back on which I believe it should be... One big nut at the top, 2 at bottom, and then a really small bolt which holds the brake line... Can't think the Bora would be that much different is it? Or do those have seperate springs and shocks?...

Meh fair enough.. I was kind of hesitating too when I was driving along and I heard my suspension knocking all the time... I knew it was becuz the springs were too short, but it still wasn't pleasant lol :p

Just hoping it'll go through the MOT fine now.
Also I need nuts, they were loose... :(



but if I were you Suj, I'd deffinately try to fit them myself... Hundred pounds is a lot of money tbh... at least for me it is!

MB don't listen to arun, I fitted my ibiza ones myself, and was planning to do these as well, but if you read on the bora/mk4 golf, they have issues with passenger sides, involving a tricky/dodgy way, and a removing wishbone/subframe way....I don't want to be taking a subframe off, forget that lol

And arun is going to pay too, so he is scared aswell ;)

Trust me, I do not pay for work, when I can do it myself

You've got me scared as well :(

There is a way of doing it without taking the subframe off, requires a hammer.

But don't know if I can be arsed to do them myself, may just book it in this week, gives me more time for the bim :D

Lol.. It sucks that you have to do that on a bora.. I can't wait to have enough money for coilies

Oh, suj, I fell in love with the scrape sticker on the beeza :) im getting one in the same place, but a little different.. Can only get the sticker once it's 'slammed' ;)

I know, otherwise I probably would of got them now, as I could of put them on :D

Yeah that sticker was class, me and john had one, I want one in like a Baby blue, need to start searching lol

Dental floss works a treat
Definitely looks a lot better debadged.
I'm sitting tight, ready for the unveiling of the wheels.

Yeah did the trick well, looks good, cannot see the outline/ghosting of the words, so come out good for a first ever attempt :D
Haha, everyone wants to know the wheels, all I can say, is they are nothing awesome like some crazy expensive splits, but I loved these wheels for ages, and got a bargain on them :D

i used a credit card type card to debadge. :)

Everyone went from a Mk2 to a Bora..
I Went to a Polo. :)
Euro Time hehe >:)

Everyone? I'm glad you think of me and Suj as the whole Mk2 community :p

yeah course me and you arun are the whole community (paul might be joining soon too lol)

And we were the most beautiful mk2 owners :whistle:
