You need some 60mm Rear B springs I've some 40mm rear apex springs if you want them though?

Thats very nice though, irmy grillie and smoked facelifts and it'll look spot on.

Wanna sell your lower grillie and fogs?

Get Rich's C P/S'ed black

I've got 40mm front, 60mm rear Corsa B springs, both Apex. Hence why I have a spare set off 40mm rear apex springs. Just pay postage and you can have them, if you want..

Not the best pic I know, but was one of the best things I did to mine tbh. I painted the silver ring around the projector just to be a little bit different too.

Well I split them and my mate painted them as he works for a bodyshop.

They're a bit of a git to do as they have to be heated in an oven to split them, but take ur time and they go ok.

RS6 from off here now has them on his - hopefully he'll pull his finger out and get some pics taken of them

Moisture in ur light is probably from a cap not done up properly on the back, or the seals knackered.
