Ditto, Revolution group buy by any chance

The do look very good, great job you've done there.

Must admit that everything I have fitted that has a whiteline label has rotted. I need to strip off my roll centre kit and respray it, it has been on less then a year and done less than 1000miles. Not sure what I'll do with my springs though

At the moment I have front and rear whiteline droplinks. So I was under the impression these where a good bit of kit. If I ever need to change my strut bars. Whats the process of painting them. As the roads down my way are always gritted in winter.

If you think Whiteline stuff is bad for rotting, don't even contemplate Cusco.

Nice refurb work.
