Anyone in Ireland looking to order Twinz parts from Twinchip
Sorry I cant help here Richie, btw thanks to Ciaranz for the rear shocks, I will know tomorrow if they work, I have the re-test of the NCT (irish MOT), it failed the first time on the shocks, I knew they were gone, and emissions, so fingers crossed. My sister just got hers through today it had failed on emissions 3 times.

Full respray
couple of things not happy with, the roof trims were half scraped back to chrome on both sides, so I had asked them to repaint them black, which they did, but a couple of clips broke and they are not sitting back quite right, the paint job is excellent, but a few other things really annoyed me, there is overspray on the inside of the wheel arches, and the biggest thing was they did not spray the inside if the boot?? you know the pillars when you open the boot, however after me going a bit mental, its going back in to get this done foc. i will try get some pics over the weekend. @Richie in carlow do you have any spare rear shocks?

Full respray
I left the car in to get a couple of trolley dents and a bad mark on drivers door and bad scratch on passenger side done also to get the wheels refurbished, nothing serious just a tidy up I am on a weeks holiday in Croatia, garage just texted me panels Are painted but they are not happy with match, they have called the paint co tect out, But as the paint was so expensive Pearl White, they like to stand over the quality of their work they have offered me a full re spray for a couple of hundred euro extra just to cover some of the labour. I said go for it. I don't want a patch work job. Will see it on thurs
