Not bad, they have 0 fittings at all, so when i took everything in to get painted, he had to make a bracket, cut the rear arches and stick them on 
They sit nice tho, and for £30 i cant complain!

They can do, but he made a bracket to fit onto them and then onto the sill kinda thing (the part with the jacking point)
You can just tiger them on tho if you want.

had to take the bumper off this on monday to take it to get the tracking sorted
by the time we got home it was too dark so he drove untill today with no bumper
then at 12 thismorning in the snow and ice we managed to fit it back on
most of the time was spent taking the tools of the floor as everytime you put one down
it would freeze to the ground

Cheers Mark!
As jamie said, post 97 with the steinmetz smoothed in.
To be honest, its going up for sale in a few months as i just need something more practical. I seriously love it tho. If i was to keep it, to finish it off (in my opinion) it would not need much, maybe a steinmetz grill, different back box (this is the standard sport one) a lexmaul/mantzel/flame inlet and a decat and then it would be finished in my eyes!
Almost died fitting the bumper yesterday in the cold tho!

Yeahh, lots!
It is lowered 60mm on 16" wheels 40 tyres. To be honest, the ones down my road are fine. Its just the crazy big ones that are a problem. And the ones where there are one for each lane.
I Think if i was to raise the front even to 50mm it would be perfect (i have got the springs but cba fitting them at the moment!)
