Bonza! Highly recommended. Edited 26/07/14 07:12 AM by -Stever- 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't finish on Thursday because one of the bolt threads was stuffed.Very, very, very easy job to do, so stuff it, did the same job on the taxi (was going to do it next week). Managed to finish just as the day driver turned up.Still pondering buying a smashed FPV at auction so that I can grab the Brembo brakes off it. Buy wreck, remove brakes and re-sell wreck. Anyone wanna buy the rest of a very smashed up 2008 GT-P? Edited 26/07/14 09:29 AM by PhilMeUp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had to brake into my own home as the keys were inside of the ute . when I got back home with the new tyres fitted to the ute I noticed that they scratched the roof and door ,when they tried to brake into it to open the door .near new paint job .
