Soz to hear that mate!

I recommend you dont attempt a 3 point turn in a tight country lane again....

What about www.drmotorsport.co.uk, they do some pretty nice stuff for Scoobs, and havent heard anything bad about their service either.

Cheers,
Grant

Strangly enough just had a looksi on there site, spoke to David a few times and he is a nice guy, maybe give him a call ....... looking for a new carbon one though just to annoy the missus.
Wouldnt have minded as much had I damaged it about 10 mins earlier when I was fleeing about but nah had to be a slow speed turn ........Im so hacked off

I think it would be rude not to go for a carbon replacement mate, after all...... You'll need to try and get over the loss of your current splitter, which will be made easier with a nice new carbon one fitted.

That would be the sort of $hit I would be spouting to convince my other half it was a good idea!!

Cheers,
Grant

Sorry to hear that Spooks - I think you need to sell the whole car now and buy a JDM STI to compensate, as it will never be the same.

Take it you rerad about my biker mishap?!

Sorry to hear about the splitter.








I just ordered this kit direct from EGR for £293 including delivery. Just in the middle of getting it all painted. I was looking for a front splitter and ended up getting the whole kit. I will get some screenies uploaded when its finished.
