As the title says, its been a busy week! I started last saturday with help from stupot67 by changing all four coil springs for the Eibach pro kit. I took the opportunity while the car was up on blocks to have the wheels done so all four went to Rimtec in Milton Keynes. They did a great job by stripping them back then powder coating and although I initially wanted a shadow chrome, I am extremely pleased with the new colour 
They kept the wheels for a few days so it was time to give the callipers some TLC! After a good clean I coated them with an epoxy paint in gunmetal and tidied the hubs up with silver hammerite. New rear Textar brake pads and a brake fluid change was meant to finish the week off finished until I decided to take the front wing and good badges off.
Its too early to give a fair comparison of the Msport versus Eibach springs but it is definitely less crashy! I also like how it is sitting and IMO the arches are filled better.
I still need to do something with the wheel nuts although I'm not sure if paining the tops will do the job So I might replace them all. Now time for the compulsory photos
