Fronts poke 1.7mm more than my old audi’s which isn’t a lot.When I repaired the front wing arches I rolled/folded the arch lips right over for extra clearance .Rears poke 3.7mm more as most of the extra width is on the inside.Forgot to mention I trimmed all the arch lip back to clear.Not fussed as they need cutting out and replacing anyway.Have already folded the lip right over on a replacement panel.

Time for the front brakes Euro car parts had 50% off over the bank holiday so ordered them on Monday £57 for 2x front discs and pads,had already got new backing plates so off I went.Front discs were badly grooved so we’ll worth a change.there have been numerous tips on how to undo the carrier bolts,scaffold poles etc,but I just used the trolley jack as it’s a consistent force at the same point so no rounding yr bolts, Got the splash guards bolts off with active’s chisel trick and cleaned the hub faces.All back together.Also swapped the larger 14mm spring plates for the 3mm ones as i’m happy there’s no rubbing with the new wheels at the rear.So. normal ride height resumes.Little bit of tuck.Happy days.
