When I fitted my decat I had to drop the tailpipes a few mm. Nothing really. Just loosened off the two T bolt clamps dropped and tightened up. Simple really but depends how your tailpipes are connected to the rear silencers.

Just under her and take a photo from underneath.

Going on Monday to get the exhaust sorted to get it sitting as it should. Ordered a timing belt kit water pump and both aux belts all being well will get that done next week to. Don't know how it happened but one wheel has a chip on it looks to be a stonechip so going to send the wheel up to nu luk and see if they can maybe fix it without painting the whole thing again. Very minimal but the wheels have done less than 1000 miles so want to keep them perfect. Hoping to order my new front grill and carbon mirrors over Easter. Going to get it up on the ramp over the next few weeks and reclean all underside again.

Not sure yet possibly gun metal grey. The guy has told me for the 8.5 wide to go et 45? If have thought I would be better with et40 although Iam down 40mn all round don't want any rubbing issues. Still considering the revo millenniums need to make my mind up by tomorrow. Lol.

@collyirwin11 dont know what to ask for them they stand me £550 I know there not worth that but the prices are all over the place for the facelifts.

Sure have a think after you get your new wheels and hit me with a text. Your new wheels sound good, I also love those milleniums, did enter my head last year.

I'm only down 20 on the front so I can't be sure. I'm cobra 40 at the back and it sits well but I suppose different shocks too. What company you talking to @gsmith ?

Tyre safety centre in cookstown well priced up there always prefer to try and deal with someone over here rather than someone in the mainland.

I'm happy with mine but I know what you mean and if you're not happy then you could run spacers.

I dealt with autoalloys Magherafelt and they came in at 600 which is reasonable enough.
