Be worth the effort sourcing new genuine items though fella.

Good call on the stock cherry red.

Nothing nicer than a mint stock looking "old school" track car

I help them combat the uncontrolled laughing and finger pointing from local passers by that will also think it looks ****e or serve no purpose.

Scoobs are now seen as a chavs "boy racer's" ride. Its styling disasters like this that have earnt the impreza that handle.

So here i am "care for the ESC community"
It hurt's to say this but i agree with Frayz

Blast from the past due to search, but have you Essex members got any more recent suggestions or recommendations for a trusted arch rolling place in or close to Essex? Thanks

Lol @ the comments in this thread.
I think I must have gotten all old these days. I'm so reserved

Jamie, I hear good reports about Arch Enemy. Maybe worth a look?

Ok so, incase anyone like me searches and sees this thread in the future, I used Arch Enemy. I called this morning to my local representative, and he managed to squese me in same day at my convenience. Very nice chap and very professional. I was very happy with his talk, and his workmanship and would happily recommend.

Here are his details:
http://www.archenemy.co.uk/

Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, North London (inside M25 and north of M4 & Thames) and Essex

Mobile: 07900 672117 (Phil)

Email: info@archenemy.co.uk

I also got a discount because I would recommend him if I was happy! Thanks Frayz for the suggestion

No cracked paint, no problems at all. Yes was on the 330S as my 18x9" wheels were ever so slightly touching the tyre wall to the arch lip under load cornering. Now plenty of space for when I go lower.

I dont usually talk money but it was £40 a side.
