When the Saloon arrived, SlipEnd Garage had a white demonstrator with a black roof (think it was C/F vinyl but didn't get a close look) which looked very smart.

Not long after, the tS version with real C/F roof was announce in Japan.........


Personally I like, but it's all down to personal preference.

At least with vinyl you can take it off again...........


Addition:
Seems Slip End still have it......... a reasonable high res pic in the sale details

Not sure now.. carbon or the satin black.

Guys

Do any of you know where I can get a set of replacement LED sidelights?
Preferably ones which are as bright as what salsa-king has

saw your message on the Hatch site.

I've not got any more left.

Have a look on Ebay, look for the companies selling from China. 9 times out of ten they are also the manufacturers.

I used to buy direct from the people who made them.. but you need to buy loads. Now some of these companies have sub companies that just sell on ebay.

Cleaned in the spring weather, still with winter tyres though.

I have a set of the 18" BBS wheels with the standard ET 55 for the summer tyres.
If I install Tein-springs with spacers (20 mm), will this affect the driving experience in the car?

Of course I will have the geometry done efter the spacer and spring installed.

Thanks.

No impact on handling when I fitted my ET35's, not in the real world anyways!

CDF are still very much on the go - it's simply a website issue which should be resolved soon. I spoke to Mark in the workshop yesterday and had an email from Chris earlier today.

Well after a day out with the family following the recent arrival daughter number 2 I have realised the hatch just isn't big enough to fit my 6 foot 4 frame and 2 child seats in back plus a pram and the rest of the rubbish that comes along, this leaves me in a predicament!


so I told the wife she needs a bigger car

Hi Mate, Yes there fitted on the car. No real difference in the handling to be honest, felt a touch un easy as the tyres needed scrubbed in with them being brand new but have a look in here

If you take the black RAs Rob, I'd be interested in taking your current ones off you - not for the flaps as such but for the mounting hardware and then I'll make my own flaps to suit.

Cheers, Neil
