Cheers. How do you go about agreeing a value? Do you have to state the sort of figure you're wanting or can they come up with an initial figure?

Any recent experience on agreed values? Given I spent a fortune on the bodywork at the start of the year it's something I want to get in place at renewal in October.

If you can find it that would be handy please. I take it nobody hears from Rik any more?

Before/After-

Anyone?

Would it be easy enough to secure the original gator to the damper with a cable tie in the same way the powerflex kit is designed? https://powerflexstore.co.uk/bumpstops/bumpstops/powerflex-universal-bump-stop-and-cover-kit-bumpstops-bs009k/ Not sure how effective a 'loose' gator is.

If anyone has read recent reviews of Cornering Force not communicating very well, I can confirm these views are still accurate. Not overly impressed.

Cheers for that. My hope is its lest likely to crack than painting them myself again.

How have people found the powerflex kit? My Sachs are currently at Cornering Force so thinking of going with this kit.

Has anyone done this with their Trophy springs? I spray painted the originals myself back in 2017 but there's a relatively local place that offers powder coating. Trying to use the originals for as long as possible, I have a set of the eibach ones from the group buy but prefer to think of them...

I'd disagree- providing you have a good twisty road that's fairly local. Wider, less interesting roads don't bring out its true colours for me and never have. A twisty road where you can have a riot below 70mph is all you need, and invariably no speed cameras etc. anyway. Granted that will be...

I've found Lemforder wishbones on ECP, anyone tried these? https://www.eurocarparts.com/p/lemforder-suspension-arm-616745375 Not sure of a reliable way to cross reference these against the original number as the ECP number is next to useless as far as I can tell.

Do you have a link to your ebay profile? I can't find anytihng by searching with 'fishvehicleengineers'.

Anyone used this particular one? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131121170052?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=_ejaT64KQiK&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=cyMunfjgTbG&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Northern Ireland potentially holding some potential buyers back?

I can't really offer much input on this so apologies for digressing but...a car like this being kept off the road for 9 years is criminal. You owe it to the car to just steal it. 😇

Anyone stay local to Craig who could lance his current tyres...? ;)

I see where you're coming from but I bought a Trophy to have a Trophy. Nice wheels are no use to me as an ornament.

Bottled changing, ordered PS3's. It's not like I'm complaining about a lack of performance from them and if it ain't broke...

Typical then? I can't remember how evenly or otherwise they've worn in the past.

Any takers generous enough to check their tread depths across the front for comparison please...?

How much difference between left and right do you tend to see? My front left is at around 2mm but the front right is 3mm. I'll be due an alignment but it's never that obvious visually until one gets properly close to the wear markers.

Fronts are needing replaced soon (sooner than I realised at that!) and probably going to stick with PS3, as curious as I am to try the Continental Premium Contact 6 I don't want to be the canary down the mine in case they're on the soft side.

To add to this, Jane at BG has confirmed you'd be about £480 for a basic re-seal etc. PLUS £140 if you want them powder coated.

Cooksport did get back in the end- 'We can refurbish the Sachs dampers. They are £112.50+VAT each to service and powder coating is £50+VAT each. The turnaround time is a couple of weeks, due to the coating. As you rightly say repairs are case by case, but parts are now very difficult to get, as...

I was looking at cooksport based on a post further back, might phone as I've not had a response from the enquiry box on their site (a pet hate of mine, why have it if it'll just get ignored?). Cornering force are who you're thinking of and who I'd want to use but recent comments on their...

What was the going rate for them these days?

All quiet here! Surely someone has done there's in the last 12 months.

Bear in mind there are a lot of votes for cars that the voters haven't driven, myself included. If it was titled 'favourite' rather than 'best' there would be less contention. An Evo group test would be more conclusive.

Anyone had theirs done recently? I see a few comments on the Cornering Force facebook page suggesting trying to get a hold of them is a bit of an issues at times now. Tempted to go with Cooksport as an alternative.
