Gaz needed an engine mount - Took him about 4-5 days.
He sends all the products off to get powder coated first I believe and sends them twice a week..
Good stuff though!
Dodgy building he works in

Excellent parts, at very good prices.
So if things take a little longer to be delivered and your in no rush you shouldn't really grumble!
Beware it dad take a month for my last order to arrive, but my XE conversion kit was within a week

catching many people who work in the tuning market on u2u is really difficult. phone is the best method, or even better email
