Plates came from this seller on ebay

The sticky pads that came with them were fine for the back plate but the front where you attach it to the bumper its slightly curved and the ends kept coming unstuck so we had to drill holes into the plate then screw them on otherwise they would have fallen off at some point

Set of refurbished black 13 Tarantulas

These turned up today.

Took them to get balanced

And then fitted them :)

Now just got to lower it

No problem, and £20 for all four balanced with stick on weights

Fantastic so no nasty weights on the front

After a lot of things being hit with hammers and a friend getting the car fall on his wrist the rear has been lowered.

Will be a while before we get the front done yet though.

That's really nice boss hard work has paid off such a good luck

Well lets just say it wasn't the easiest of jobs.... proper update soon, with some nice photos, but for now, this is how it's sitting before it's had chance to settle a bit, it's come down to a nice usable height.

So after the front was left to settle and resprayed the bumpers back to black we took it out for a little photo shoot.

Looks amazing!

What did you use to get the paintwork to come up so well?

Thank you, just washed and then machine polished with autoglym super resin polish :)

Anyone have any ideas? - http://www.clubpolo.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=333411

MOT at the end of the month, and want it sorted before then!

Thanks, and it's 80mm at the front and I think we set the rears to 60 to get it leveled out.

would like it to drop another 20mm to fill the arch gap, but don't want to start scraping everywhere
