Parts still havnt Arived, I phoned Big Boys Toys and they said there still waiting on the supplier, How long does it take to get some strut braces from a supplier?? Should i be worrying? has anyone else had bad exprences with Big Boys Toys? or should i just relax and be paitent?

wouldnt be too worried just yet.. i know plenty of people who've bought from bigboystoys and none of them got ripped off.

i've never bought anything off them but on pvw there was a thread a while back critisising their crap customer service and delivery times. i think they all got what they wanted, just had to wait a few years! :P

Stoooooooooooopppppp? :o

if you have no kit and they have already took your money. get it back quick!!!!

from the part number you have said it is the same kit i got from venom.

dont get it cos its wrong. the front top strut brace? is for a left hand drive mk2. it wont get past the brake resevoir!

check this http://www.performancedriven.co.uk/shop.product.0.asp?ProductID=1381&CatID=54
the web site shows the part number you have said.
this picture is shown for that part number and its what i got in my kit.

Thanks mate! You saved me there! ive canceled the order  ;D Any idea what kits out there managed to avoid the break resiviour???

not really matey just see who got what.

i think the best place is to have a look in some of the magazines at the feature cars and see what they have fitted. i think that i have seen a sparco steel one used in a mag not so long ago.

hope that helps ;D
