    Wrong offset for trophy wheels. Sets of 182 cup turini's come up fairly often on the Facebook clio sale groups. May need a respray but the easiest way to get them in Et45 offset

    Sachs OR cup front shocks and springs

    Photo Ed posted a set of clio cup dampers previously for sale. I had the same issue and ended up buying a set of dampers via the trophy Facebook group. They come up every so often or just post asking for a set. I struggled with springs and ended up with Mark fish Eibachs. Since then, grams...

    Brembo Brakes

    They will work and quite competitively priced. Quite a few people fit the Brembo high carbon discs to their car. Link below so you can compare sizes to the ebay ones. https://www.kamracing.co.uk/brembo-brake-discs-renault-clio-mk2-rs-172-rs-182.html

    Trophy Sales on Collecting Cars

    Could this be exlenanded to track Trophy sales through any car auctions.? I believe three or more sold via other auctions last year. Although I buy quite a few parts from Facebook marketplace it's still not my preference as the common scams and issues persist.
