for some reason i dont like that place, everytime i have been in which is rarely.
The people i always speak to are clueless.

Bet they would be expensive to as to lowering the rear of a saxo.
My mate had his done when they were on the other side of the pond down from the sage building, sure he paid like £120 for just the rear.

I agree mate they are funny there, only lad who is sound there is Keith who has the Monaco Blue 172. He's always been sound with me, the rest are very ignorant, especially the lad who drove the Yellow Punto Sporting.

On a similar note, is there many places in our area that sell performance parts ? I was after a K&N panel filter and ended up ordering via Ebay because i couldn't think/find anywhere.
My filter is currently residing in the Norham Road Post depot because i was out when they tried to deliver.....wont be able to get there till Saturday now...gggrrrrrr
