Well done for letting me know about this Dave, please add me to the Group Buy I hope that means that you've got enough people to go ahead now

I'd like the upper brace in the bright alloy finish please. Not decided about the lower two though; I can't really afford them both Is it worth just fitting just the lower front one?

I'd like to collect in person, I believe that Roland is happy to fit the top one FOC if we collect. Is this the case?

Tigger.

Morning!

Have you called Roland to order your upper brace? Once your deposit or full amount if you so wish is in people can collect them I believe.

It was bantered around but I will find out for you or if you call before me ask him quickly. I believe it was true though aslong as you have a standard car. My braces are costing to be fitted but then its all three of them and my air box needs modifying for it to fit.

John and me are going down on the 19th if you want to see if you can get him to fit it then too?

Good to have you aboard!

Really sorry, I can't make the 19th I'd like to have done that! We will be calling in there on the 23rd though.

Thanks for arranging this

Thanks John for signing up for the group buy.

As you say we now have the right number of people signed up so this will be going ahead as planned.

Can't wait till the 19th to find out what difference the braces make.

I think a weeks notice is needed but give Roland a call and see what he says. I booked my one is a couple of weeks back but John (tigger) booked his in today for the 23rd.

Mines fitted! And Roland was right it really changes the way the car handles! Soooo much better in general and much better over bumps! Even managed to get 1.08G's in a corner today!

Tigger.

Yep I took it along for testing. Can do accelerate, cornering or vector g's. Also any speed change timing or distance time. e.g. 1/4miles or 0-60s.

You will feel a difference as soon as you drive off as the car no longer tugs all over the road and when you're corning it will feel more progressive and easier on the limit of the tyres. I also found that my car didnt just wash out asmuch when I put a bit of power on.
