Mark,

How is the feeling about new rear spacer? Still rubbering or not

Ricky - Thanks for your help again today! Not really tested the car yet because I had to rush home after AK's to get ready to go for dinner. Will do a proper test tomorrow. My own concern is the front now. Hitting corners at speed, especially going up / downhill will hit the fender still.

Prob need to cut down by a few MM as well....

Better remove the front spacers first until find a solution

Yeah I know.... aiya! So much hassle!

A new thread on the VENDOR CLASSIFIEDs for these spacers...

http://www.europeanautosource.com/pr...oducts_id=2199

Look quite good, but not sure if it will be tight fit like AK's spacers that were made for me... afraid of vibration!
