Dropped by a bodyshop this morning to get a feel for the work required and price for flaring the arches, reshaping the bumpers etc. He said he could roll the fronts and shape the bumper to match as these are pretty good to start with. The rears require more work as little to work with but he can panel beat them out and heat the bumper to reshape it to suit. With that done and painted around £500-600. So the current set-up will clear at all times and no rubbing. We'll see if the BTCC kit comes to fruition as that has gone quiet so I have another avenue to go later on.

Rear camber adjusters fitted today, quick clean and polish but no time for photos! Rubs too much when 4 up!
