Very nice mate.

What engine mounts you opted for?
 
Alpine you seem to get a hell of a lot done! Its just thread after thread of work! Its taken me 3 days to clean and condition my leather (although I have been very hung over on two of those days!) I just seem to **** about for ages and never actualy get much done,

Look forward to the pics mate,

To be honest with you Dani my leather is in very good nick but I would say It would help, pollished bliss rate it highly also ltt make loads of great stuff that gets great reviews over on DW,

ps Alpine I'm very sorry for the hijack!
 
Alpine, i have a question, how many hours work was suggested to get all that work done?

Top mounts x4
top mount bearings x2 id say 45 mins to an hour. (as i have already lowered ita few months ago)

Engine mounts x 2 (still waiting for dog-bone) half hour i suppose allowing 15 mins per side.

Strut brace (upper) as long as it take to drill 8 holes and do up bolts (which should be pi$$ with the stutts out)

ARB bushes dunno, never done these before..

New wishbones x2
ball joints x2 as long as it take to put them back on, should not be to long, 15 mins a side maybe

18" Rims
New tyres as fast as the air gun and tyre fitting machine allows me!! lol

2 3 hours maybe?? cant say really, somthing bound to go wrong!!! mite not even get there if the ****** immo plays up anymore tomorrow!
