you lose a 10mm self tapper mount right at the bottom iirc mate, and when you seal the hole (expanding foam and underseal or whatever) , you lose an air vent that lets road noise in i believe :)

Cheers frank, this may be the way to go cos the rear one is a big ugly hole :( front one isn't too bad
 
Rotated my tyres yesterday and wasted 2 hours today arguing with a stubborn oil filter whilst lying on cold pavement and snow.... then spent 20 mins doing a tuneup. Sounds healthier and drives better now :)
 
About 50-60mm at the back i think, tein springs chopped down a bit and corsa shocks, front is on stock shocks and alto springs i got from frank and is about the same drop, maybe a tad higher...
Cheers Joe, alto springs is the way I'm going too, got them already just need to fit them :rolleyes:
 
Where'd you get them from mate? Got a link? They sound pretty cool, bet loads of the low'n'wide guys would love them!

Done a nice amount today :)

what seats you got harlen?
Harlen any pics of your seat frames and how they're installed?

Just got the one Cobra Clubman drivers seat on a classic Mini subframe. The way I've got it installed is pretty simple really partly due to the Mini subframe (it is much lower than the stock seat though - I love it like this) - When I go and take pics tomorrow I can get some detailed fitment pictures if you like Karl
 
Wdid? Tootled a few miles down the road to see R-Reg and chilled out chatting about cars while hannah fawned over the kittens :p

Got the details for tomorrow to go look at/test fit the OZ 15" titanium rims i mentioned before :) Should be fun! (sorry ade :p)

Fitted a polo splitter today. Only a 10er and I've got a silver colour matched spoiler waiting for me in the scrapyard. Might try and find a wrap around so if I don't use it ill be selling it for the same price.
 
Drove her to town...handed a CV to a lovely lady who's sweet little shop looking for weekend staff (it's something, right)
I think they might be a bit posh for me...but it's a lovely little place...and seems like it will be far less likely I will wish to batter the Customers with a large stick ^_^








...not that I would....honest :D
