  • Mini Convertible – Open Air Thrills With Open Road Ability!

    It may have been in the showrooms for all of 5 minutes, but already suspension gurus Eibach have a full complement of suspension products for the new Mini Convertible.

    Even in standard trim, the car has wowed critics with its combination of svelte good looks, superb roof and responsive chassis. The new Eibach products remove the compromises of the standard suspension set-up to endow the lovable soft-top with an incredible degree of steering precision and driver feedback.

    For those looking for the ultimate balance of ride comfort and response, The Pro-Kit lowered springs work in harmony with the factory damper units to lower the car by approximately 30mm. This improved centre of gravity reduces body roll and improves turn-in. Thanks to the spring’s unique progressive winding, developed by Eibach’s F1 engineers, compliance is retained almost at factory levels. Appearances however are not, with the car taking on a far more aggressive stance and the wheels really filling the arches. In-keeping with BMW’s reputation for longevity, the kit comes with a comprehensive 5 year warranty on fit and finish. Perfect for UK roads! The kit is priced at £157.39 + VAT.

    For enthusiasts searching for true handling nirvana, Eibach also offer a new, stiffer Anti-Roll Kit for the Mini. This CNC manufactured kit works in conjunction with the Pro-Kit to further enhance the cars cornering prowess. The ingenious properties of the new bars mean that in a straight line, ride comfort is totally unaffected, with the stiffening effect only coming into play under hard cornering. The kits are priced at £260.87 +VAT for a pair front and rear bars.

    The final finishing touch can be added with the application of the Eibach’s hub-centric Pro-Spacer kit. These are available in a selection of widths to either increase the track of the standard wheels to improve the car’s handling or to allow the precise fitment of aftermarket wheels whilst retaining factory offsets. A great idea in either case. Prices start at just £38.00 + VAT per pair.

    The Mini may already be BMW’s most recognisable icon, but now, thanks to Eibach, it truly handles like one.

  • 08 Subaru WRX Fog Light Delete Upgrade

    If you’re lucky enough to own a UK version of the new ‘08 WRX or Sti models, then you’ll already be familiar with the ‘acquired’ styling of the rear lights. They may be a small detail, but they make a huge difference to the look of the car.

    Subaru didn’t do themselves any favours, by making them look lop-sided with a fairly obvious fog light lens on the off-side unit. Luckily, Subaru style saviours Revolution have been poring through the OEM parts books to find a genuine part to sort out this fashion faux-pas.

    For the princely sum of just £59.99 including VAT, they will sell you an ‘all-clear’ Genuine Subaru part., complete with red bulb to make it street legal. As you might imagine, these are a fairly simple and straight-forward replacement, with take next to no time to fit.

    So what are you waiting for?, get symmetrical for the show season and give your WRX the ‘all clear’.
