I'm thinking of fitting one of these. How much of a difference does it make?

What a very big diffrence, the car feels much tighter going into corners! One thing i will say dont tackle the job yourself, get an extra pair of hands! It took me just over 2 1/2hours fitting it,as it's heavy bit of kit (doing it on my driveway with axle stands[:@]) but its worth it in the end,mate.
 
Just given the brembo's a lick of laquor while I was hunting for the creaking noise which I believe is drop link or roll bat related !

Only quick spray will do them fully when the weather is better
 
Fixed the rear washer pipe under the air box. Shouldn't come apart again as I've taped it up and cable tied it ;)
Fitted new tail light bulbs. Run tap and die over threads of fittings/screws as previous owner/fitter cross threaded 5 out of 6 :rolleyes:
 
Lots today:
Cambelt and tensioners
Full service including Brembo brake fluid change
4 Wheel laser alignment

from the nice guys over at autops.co.uk (APS Brackley)

Haha you are joking right?
It takes half hour tops, easiest and one of the best mods to do.
 
It was my Birthday last week and my Bro in Law and his misses bought me these :)

I got bored of my flip number plate in the centre so i made a bracket that attaches to the grille.

It probably is the wrong side but thats where i prefer it best, if i get any hassle i'll just put it on the other side.

Not sure if i'm gonna sell the flip plate yet i'm in two minds whether to keep it or not. My missus has got her eye on it, atm it's still on the car.

The placement looks good the odd spacing on the plate doesn't do it for me I know it's a private plate but just looks odd to me
