As some of you may know, my cars been having a wide arched kit fitted since February and was completed a couple of weeks ago. Since then Ive been rebuilding, getting a new alarm and probably about 95% complete. But after getting it back it all seemed a bit of an anti climax :( Went for a drive out last weekend and found this horrible squeaking noise, which was a constant embarasing noise.

 

Anyway, today rang Phil at C and S Woods and squeezed me in this afternoon. Spent nearly a couple of hours on the car, the squeak has now gone and he also aligned the doors better for me, then said "what do I owe", reply, we'll sort it out next time.

 

Took the car out into mid Cheshire, Altrincham, Hale, Wilmslow amongst all the Ferrari's, Astons, Bentleys and the Z got more heads turning. The car sounded great, it drove great and no noises, so Im a happy chappy. Big thanks to Phil again :)

 

Off to Nottingham 4 Wheel alignment tomorrow, so will have my new dished alloys on and all tracked up.

Should be a couple in the Rides section, also if you do a search on "progress" there are many pictures during the fitting stages. Will get more pictures when I have the new wheels on :) Also, if you search "new wheels" some more pics.

Fas, yes keep checking to see if im too close at the rear, also doesnt help with the Ganador mirrors! Worst part is getting it down the side of the house to the garage! approx couple of inches spare, plus then got to turn at same time.

 

What suspension have you got? I think my wheels are slightly rubbing when hitting dips in the motorway and noticed a split in the rear arch yesterday :(

 

Vini, thanks for the kind words.
