Yeah I just enquired about a price for the KW arms, but according to the UK sites they are 270 euros a pair haha.

Whereas the USP motorsport arms are $390 for all 4 arms. Think ill order them and see how they go!

Yeah USP is definitely good value for money. I can't see any reason why they wouldn't be any good, they've sold the Gruvenparts for a while so their arms are probably a copy or use the same design elements. All their other parts seem to be good as well so they'd be good I'd assume :)

Sorry to hear the bad luck Jed & Corey. I will definitely be making the trip up from Sydney for the next one.

Corey, I'd love to see some more photos of the morning meet up. I feel bad that I didn't make the effort in going as I knew how excited people from Sydney were about this special event.

Jed - It's amazing how much cleaner and fresh your car looks with the shaved front bumper and new number plates. I got to hand it to you mate :)

I hope your MKIV R32 Corey (and others) is all sorted and back on the road. Big shame! :ohwell:

Thanks mate :) Yeah amazing how much that alone cleans up the look of the car and the fact that Sally takes a good photo! haha

Have you considered 25mm rear spacers? To me, seems like 8mm front and 25mm rear are the best combination to bring out the flared arches even more. Got to invest in some of those on your next purchase :)

I'd love to have some spacers. But considering they're illegal and can void my insurance should they be found in the event I crash etc. I just can't risk losing $20,000+ worth of insurance payout at this time in my life :( Maybe one day!

Aw thanks Sal!

After spending lots of money to get it looking good I've already given it a big ****ing scratch :( And all to try and save it from the predicted hail! Grrrrr never rush parking in the work carpark with stick up lifter metal bits again

Oh no Jed :duh:

Maybe you can get some RS touch up paint and clean it up.
