Not sure to be honest mate if u go for them you then need to buy longer bolts. By the time you've done that you'll be nearing the price of H&R ones. My advice, keep your eye on the for sale section or post in the wanted section that should sort you out mate ;)

I've taken it out for a spin this afternoon. It seems to hold the road a bit better with the spacers fitted so I'm all happy :)

Yesterday was the worst day at work I've had in a long time so I got home and went mad!

I purchased front and rear strut braces for the leon, a new clutch switch and a present for the misses to keep her happy. lol :)

I'll post some pics when they arrive :D

I have fitted my front and rear strut brace's this morning.

They appear to be a great fit and have a marked improvement on handling. :)

Well just a quick update. I've sold the bucket seats I had for sale and they go tonight.

With this in mind I think I'm gonna order a TIP from creation motorsport and new discs and pads for the rear.
